Font encoding in report hmtlcss
When I run report Ora9i, it always insert these lines into html file, so my page can not show the correct encoding character (I want to use Vietnamese Character but it show Western ISO-8859-1).
Please tell me. Thanks.
<html>
<head>
<base href="http://tckt:8888/reports/rwservlet/getfile/tckt/330/57313451.htm">
</head></html>
And I want to download patch 3 for report 9i, but not have metalink account.
How can I do.
HI,
Yes, you are right. You will always first get:
<html>
<head>
<base href="...">
</head>
</html>
and then the second <html> tag that contains the actual report. However, I have tried it, and embedding the charset information inside the second <html> tag also has the desired effect. I would suggest that instead of UTF-8, you use your Vietnamese charset, put it in the before-report-escape value, and try.
If this does not work, just remove the first <html> tag manually after the report output is generated, and open the file in the browser (just for testing purposes). Confirm whether this gives you the correct result. If this too does not give you correct result, it means the problem is not with the charset information, it is somewhere else.

Indesign export pdf font encoding ansi custom
After exporting an Indesign document to a pdf, I was wondering why some fonts appear twice the same with different font encodings.
As example, the font TnTFormBSK-Light appears once as font encoding ansi and a second time as font encoding Custom.
The export is done on a Macintosh with Indesign version 5.04.
Also when you do a preflight check with the Heidelberg Prinect tools, you get a warning that the font is using the same font UID's.
When you are using a bullet character, after exporting you get always the same font twice with different font encodings, ansi and Identity-H.
This is a known issue: http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=329611&sliceId=1
I didn't found any reason about why Indesign is using the same font with encoding "ansi" and "Custom" and the same UIDs!
Can someone explain these?Hi,
First off, the ANSI encoding can only handle certain characters. If the font has characters which are beyond that encoding, and the glyphs for those characters are embedded in the PDF (either because you used those characters, or because the entire font was embedded for some reason), then InDesign will embed it as two fonts, one with ANSI encoding (for the characters that can be covered that way), and one with a custom encoding. Sometimes you'll see CID-keyed fonts resulting from this sort of thing as well.
If the PDF export is splitting the font into two, it should remove the UniqueID from at least one of those. Embedding two distinct fonts with the same UniqueID looks like a bug to me. I suggest you report that to Adobe, here: http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform

Changing font in Oracle Report in PDF output
Hi,
I have created reports using dev10g(report builder). I can run report from client side in pdf format but I want to change the font (i.e from courier to Arial narrow).
How can I do this?
Is there anyone who can help me?

# DESCRIPTION:
# Each line is of the form:
# <Face>.<Size>.<Style>.<Weight>.<Width>.<CharSet> = \
# <Face>.<Size>.<Style>.<Weight>.<Width>.<CharSet>
# The <Face> must be the name (string/identifier) of a font face. The
# <Style>, <Weight>, <Width>, and <CharSet> may either be a numeric
# value or a predefined identifier/string. For example, both US7ASCII
# and 1 are valid <CharSet> values, and refer to the same character set.
# The <Size> dimension must be an explicit size, in points.
# The following is a list of recognized names and their numeric
# equivalents:
# Styles Numeric value
# Plain 0
# Italic 1
# Oblique 2
# Underline 4
# Outline 8
# Shadow 16
# Inverted 32
# Overstrike 64
# Blink 128

# Extradense 2
# Dense 3
# Semidense 4
# Normal 5
# Semiexpand 6
# Expand 7
# Extraexpand 8
# Ultraexpand 9
# Styles may be combined; you can use plus ("+") to delimit parts of a
# style. For example,
# Arial..Italic+Overstrike = Helvetica.12.Italic.Bold
# are equivalent, and either one will map any Arial that has both Italic
# and Overstrike styles to a 12-point, bold, italic Helvetica font.
# All strings are case-insensitive in mapping. Font faces are likely to
# be case-sensitive on lookup, depending on the platform and surface, so
# care should be taken with names used on the right-hand side; but they
# will be mapped case-insensitively.
# See your platform documentation for a list of all supported character
# sets, and available fonts.

# NOTES ON PRECEDENCE OF PDF SECTIONS:
# If you have entries for a same font in many PDF sections, then Font
# Aliasing entry will take precedence over Font Subsetting entry. Entries
# in Font Subsetting will take precedence over the entries in Font Embedding
# section.
# Generic entries for a font must follow more specific entries for the same
# font. For instance, if you want to subset helvetica Plain, helvetica Bold,
# helvetica Italic and helvetica Bold-Italic fonts, your entries must be:
# [ PDF:Subset ]
# helvetica..Italic.Bold.. = "Arialbi.ttf"
# helvetica...Bold.. = "Arialb.ttf"
# helvetica..Italic... = "Ariali.ttf"
# helvetica..... = "Arial.ttf"
# If helvetica..... entry appears in the top of the list, all the styles of
# helvetica font in the layout will be subset as helvetica Plain font.

Font issue between Reports Designer and Report Output
Hi.
I've succesfully migrated several reports from 6i to 10g (10.1.2.0.2) with and without parameter form. However, I have the following font issue:
- When report is run from Reports Designer, font is kept.
- When report is run from a forms module (through rwserver on the same machine, that is not really from an application server, but using Oracle BC4J or Developer Suite enviroment) the report output is different. In this case a bigger font is displayed and occasional truncation happens for some fields.
The question is: How can i avoid this difference in font behaviour?. Is it font.ali related?. How come this happen on the same machine(Windows XP)? These reports are to be deployed on Linux, where reasonably, and font machine is expected to happen.
Font used: Arial (Occidental) 9this might be an issue with the printer that is associated also, and the permissions to the printer that you might have..
login to the application server machine and restart the reports server as an admin..try running the reports via the URL..i have a feeling that this issue might be somethiing to do with the permission(s) to the printer from your AS machine -

How to Change Fonts in Oracle Reports
Hi All,
When ever i am changing fonts in my report it reflects me when i run them on reports builder installed on my local machine.
But when i put them on application server, these changes are not reflected. I am generating PDF reports.
Can some body help me what should i need to do to reflect the font changes.
Thanks in advance.
Regards
KamalHi Kamal,
Whether the font used in the report is installed in the machine where Apps server is installed? If not , use the feature ' PDF Aliasing' to substitue for that particular font.
For more information on this, have a look at the chapter "Managing Fonts in Oracle Reports" in Publishing Reports Manual. You can download it from http://download.oracle.com/docs/pdf/B14048_01.pdf.

Font problem in reports produced in PDF format
Dear all,
All our reports are developed by developer suite 10g (under windows) and deployed on an Application Server 10g (on Linux).
We had a problem with displaying the arabic letters, but this was solved by following the steps in the metalink Note no 726205.1 for generating arabic pdf reports on unix.
Now, the problem is that the font used in the reports is ARIAL, but when the reports are displayed (in PDF format) the font is TAHOMA. This font conversion happens in both Arabic and English reports !
I wonder how can I correct this behaviour.
Thanks in advance for your time.
NaglaaSteve,
I remember that fonts in PDF generated by Oracle Reports is a big topic and a subject of many Metalink notes (metalink.oracle.com).

Font problem in reports, IAS Version: 10.1.2.2.0
Dear all,
I have installed about 20 applications servers on windows but never met this problem before.
I am facing the problem in viewing the report output on the Windows 2003, Oracle Application server
Installation Type: Forms and Reports Services
Version: 10.1.2.2.0
I am using Arial 10 as default Font of the report,
but in output I am getting another font.
Please Help!
Regards,
TobiasI have found this reference on a search of oracle:
http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14099_19/bi.1012/b14048/pbr_trouble.htm
Section D1.11 says this is a know problem and to copy one registry entry to another, however, this entry does not exist on the Windows 2003 server this is running on.
Any ideas?
D.1.11 Printing and Font Errors When Using In-process Server
The in-process server does not recognize the default printer of a user currently logged on to Windows. This is because the service that runs the in-process server is logged on as the Local System.
Problem
Any of the following:
* Printing to default printer fails with the REP_3002 error. For example, the following command:
http://myrepsrvr.us.oracle.com:7777/reports/rwservlet?report=myrep.rdf&destype=printer&desformat=html
results in the following error: Error:"REP-3002: Error initializing printer. Please make sure a printer is installed."
* Deploying reports containing Oracle6i Graphics (OGD) graphics causes Reports Server to stop responding.
* Font alignment problems in a PDF file output from an in-process server.
Solution
To work around all these issues:
1. Open the Windows registry using a registry editor (for example, regedit.exe). Create a backup of the registry before you edit it.
2. Navigate to the following key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Windows
3. Copy the string value of Device for this key. For example: \\MOWGLI\sierra,winspool,Ne02:
4. Navigate to the following key: HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Windows
5. Paste the Device value copied from HKEY_CURRENT_USER (the string value of Device for this key will be empty). -

Continuing font encoding and tag issues with snow leopard and CS4oI
I am looking for help with a font handling issue with snow leopard and cs4 Indesign. Despite numerous calls and hours on the phone neither Apple nor Adobe has been helpful. I have had this issue open with Adobe since oct 5 but they remain totally unresponsive to date. I need to be able to use Type 1 fonts and do the following , export a pdf from Indesign with the following attributes: 1) xml tags for stories and objects. 2) have the fonts encoded as ansi and embedded.
Some additional information - exporting to ps is not an option as it destroys the xml tags. and doesn't guarantee that the fonts won't become CID or some other odd encoding.
As it stands now,
Leopard (10.5.8) and CS3 creates ansi encoded fonts with xml tags.
Leopard (10.5.8) and CS4 creates ansi encoded fonts with xml tags.
Snow leopard and CS3 creates ansi encoded fonts and xml tags
Snow leopard and CS4 creates custom subsetted fonts and some xml tags.
If any one has any advice on how to force specific font encodings from CS4 pdf exports so that i can preserve the tags and get the correct fonts I would be grateful.The font encoding is not a function of the OS version, but rather of how a font is internally encoded and the content you are representing with the font.
If you are seeing a difference between MacOS 10.5 and 10.6 with the same Adobe software, it probably has something to do with use of a system font that is somehow different from one version of the OS to another. InDesign does not use any of the OS' font handling software.
Assuming that the fonts are embedded, subset or not, what is your issue with whether a font is ANSI-encoded, custom-encoded, or CID-encoded? It should make no difference for purposes of workflow beyond InDesign for software that adheres to the PDF specification (including all versions of PDF from 1.3 and up to 1.7 plus ISO 32000-1 PDF and all versions of PDF/X and PDF/A).
Neither InDesign or any other Adobe application provides user choices for the encoding since it shouldn't make a difference. The encodings chosen by Adobe's core technology components are for a combination of optimization and to support proper text search, copy, etc.

Hi,
I know this feature is suppose to be available in 9i Reports. I am wondering how this is done. Is it suppose to be done automatically? What has to be done to specify a particular font to be embedded in the report? We would like to embed the barcode font into a reports which is accessed via the web through the reports server running on 9iAS. Is this possible?
Thanks
ChadChad
If you have not seen , the white paper is published on OTN
To embed a barcode font, you need to just do the following things
1. Select the font in the reports builder layout model for your object. If you can't find the font in the list, you can aribitaririly select a font and then do the aliasing by
specifying it in uifont.ali file under [PDF] section as example
Arial = <your barcode font name>
2. In uifont.ali file, under [PDF EMBED] section, specify the font name and the PFM , PFB files, like
SAdvac a. PFM a.PFB
3. Pass the PDFEMBED command line parameter as YES
Thanks

After SL login windows appears with wrong font encoding
I installed SL and the login windows when I switch accounts and the username and password windows before I install things have lost their default fonts. Instead I get squares with an A inside.
How can I get back to the correct font/encoding?Reset the font databases by booting into safe mode, which also deletes all collections, and then reset things. See Font Management in OS X for more details.

Is there any way around "chosen font and font encoding differ and could not be resolved"? Will I be able to find a font I can use to edit the text?
Probably not. You could try changing the font; you might have to retype the text.
