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.

Steve,
I remember that fonts in PDF generated by Oracle Reports is a big topic and a subject of many Metalink notes (metalink.oracle.com).
Note.210318.1 Ext/Pub How To use font embedding in Reports 9i for PDF output
Note.207711.1 Ext/Pub How to Use Font Subsetting in Reports 9i for PDF Output
Note 232975.1 "Windows/Unix Font Issues: What Information is Required to address the Issue and How to Work Around Issue"
Especially on Unix and Linux systems, there are some font mapping required. I suggest to run this question on the Reports forum here on OTN where I think you have better chances for an answer.

    Thanks for the reply Sebastian,
    I created APS with only CVOM service and changed the parameter Xmx6g, but the result is the same. But there are some strange thing, since com at the time of shipment and PDF generation dedicated to the APS, the value of the metric "Maximum Memory (MB)" was 5.461Mg that corresponds to the parameter Xmx6g, but the metric "Total Memory (MB)" value was 1792Mg and "Free Memory (MB)" the 1.052Mg value. Is it possible that the APS does not use all available memory is allocated to it? At the time of generating the server had memory available to grow.

  • Printing report output in PDF format

    Hi,
    I want to know what are the settings needed to print a report output in PDF format, while executing the report from Oracle applications (Ver 11.5.6).
    Report is executed as a concurrent request from Oracle applications.
    Normally when we run the report from Oracle applications, output will be opened in a internet browser(IE) in HTML format. But I want the output to be opened in PDF format instead of HTML.
    OS: Sun Solaris 2.8.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Sarish

    Hi Sarish
    Please contact Oracle Support for an answer or to customise your application so that it prints a report output in PDF Format.
    To get PDF output you must run report/job with DESFORMAT=PDF in the command line instead of DESFORMAT=HTML/HTMLCSS.
    Regards

  • Problems with the report export in PDF format

    Hi All,
    I am new to this forum.
    I'm developing a web application that uses Java Reporting Component (JRC) to display crystal reports.
    I have three problem:
    1) I want, after entering the filters in a jsp, to print a report in PDF format (WORD) without opening it
    with Adobe Reader (Microsoft Word). The class of API JRC used for export is ReportExportControl.
    2) I want to print multiple reports one after the other to reduce the time (possibly joining two or more reports into a single PDF)
    3) I want to insert, in the jsp page filters, the number of pages to print from the same report (without
    opening it with Adobe Reader (Microsoft Word))
    Can anyone help me? or can give a simple java code to do the same.
    Thanks in advance.

  • Print Report Output in PDF Format

    :-) Hiee E'body
    I generated the output of a Report(developed in Report Builder 6i) in PDF format.
    The output file is created properly and the PDF file gets displayed on the screen in proper format but when i try to print the PDF file it gets printed across the page instead of printing
    it straight.
    I have checked all page and printer settings but cannot find the reason for this.
    If anybody is aware of the solution to this problem please guide me for the same.
    Have a nice day !!
    Thanking You ..

  • Problem with "Save as Adobe PDF format" in Excel and Word

    Hi
    When I use printing zone in Excel and make a «Save as Adobe PDF format» (menu File / Save as Adobe PDF), the first save is well done. But when I make it a second time, what's not in the printing zone is printing in the document.
    I have also problem with the «Save as Adobe PDF format» in Word. The images superposition are not well print.
    I'm using Windows 7 in french, Office 2010 french and Adobe Acrobat XI standard. All is in the latest version.
    Thanks

    The Save As PDF feature in Office2008 Call up a PDF  Creator similar to the AdobePDF Print Driver. whch OX.6 can't use.
    To create Pdf you have to use method used:
    http://indesignsecrets.com/acrobats-adobe-pdf-printer-replaced-in-snow-leopard.php
    Not before you attempt to use this method if  Rossetta is not installed. pop in your Systems DVD and install Rosetta. Then follow directions to install the Adobe Quality PDF Automator Script which will show up in the Print Menu. Click on Print > then click PDF. Then Click on Adobe quality PDF.  AS for setting up Job options and other details Supposedly your suppose to  have access. But I have no idea.
    First thing Rosetta should be installed out of the box. and Second Adobe should install this Script from their installer. So their should be no intervention from the user. it should just work. Early report when OSX.6 first came out almost no one was able to get this to work. and I see periodic reports that people still can't get it tork and they have to to resort to saving as .ps files then droping on distiller.
    Good luck.

  • 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,
    Tobias

    I 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).

    I can see from your code that you are a beginner. Your coding style is very Labview no-no. But well every Labview pro have some time been a beginner I have some problems understanding or grasp the essence of your problem. Can you post your failed attempt to use rapport generation. It would help in the understanding of your problem.
    Besides which, my opinion is that Express VIs Carthage must be destroyed deleted

  • Apps report print on PDF format

    Hi all,
    I want to print my report from apps in PDF format, so can anyone tell me how to print report from apps in PDF format.
    Is there any document ID in metalink or can anyone tell me the complete steps for taking report in PDF format.
    Thanks & Regards

    In the earlier version of apps (before 11.5.10), we used to do it using bitmap reports. Now we can use XML Publisher, it is easier to design the layout in rtf rather than bitmap report (rdf).
