Rendering Imges in XML Publisher Report

Hi,
We have the requirement of Rendering Images in XML Publisher Report.This images will be for each record you export. We do not want to construct the URL at run time and show the image, rather want to send the data through XML as encoded binary information and at run time to interpret the data and render the Image.
Is this supported in XML Publisher, if yes , what are the steps to follow in sending the data (specific encoding/formats etc)
Thanks
Joseph George

Why can you not use send the path on the server via XML to the template to render the image?

Pulling Signature into an XML Publisher report for Recruitment letters

Hi All,
I'm trying to create signed recruitment letters for the Talent Acquisition module and am not quite sure how to handle this technically.. I assume some customizations are in order...
I guess some of the questions I have are:
1) Is there OOTB functionality to handle Signatures in PS?
2) Do i store the image in the database or on an accessible network/local drive location?
3) Can XML Publisher handle this type of request?
4) Is there any documentation out there to explain this in more detail?
5) Any advice on how to proceed?
I also have a company logo they want pulled into the XML Publisher Report.. i assume it would be a simliar effect.
Anyway, I was hoping someone out there may have some advice on how to proceed.
Regards,
Greg

Below excerpt from Oracle XML Publisher Core Components Guide
Images
XML Publisher supports several methods for including images in your published document:
Direct Insertion*
Insert the jpg, gif, bmp, or png image directly in your template.
URL Reference*
1. Insert a dummy image in your template.
2. In Microsoft Word's Format Picture dialog box select the Web tab. Enter the
following syntax in the Alternative text region to reference the image URL:
url:{'http://image location'}
For example, enter:
url:{'http://www.oracle.com/images/ora_log.gif'}
You can also build a URL based on multiple elements at runtime. Just use the
concat function to build the URL string. For example:
url:{concat(SERVER,'/',IMAGE_DIR,'/',IMAGE_FILE)}

BLOB image in XML Publisher

Currently we are using 6i reports to generate XML output, which in turn is passed to XML publisher to generate documents.
I am trying to access a blob image from DB in 6i reports. How Can I pass this image to XML publisher.
Basically my doubt is:
How do I incorporate BLOB image from database into XML Publisher? What are the different approaches available?

Hey David, well, this isn't the unique solution for displaying images in XMLP. The other alternative (wich is my plan b) is to have this images in a path in the server. So, you can bring the name of your image (maybe, a signature) from the database; I have test that and works very well.
I'm trying to use an URL because the signatures are stored as BLOBs in the db and I was trying to re-create the file in the server, but it became a little complicated. So, in my case, I just have to resolve any of this issues and I'ld have my images in the reports.

XML publisher report works fine in English environment but NOT in Dutch

We are using Oracle Reports to generate XML file which will be input for XML Publisher report . Our requirement is to generate report in Dutch (Netherlands) language.
We developed a report which is working fine in English. Then we copied this RDF file to NL directory also registered concurrent program in dutch language but then it stopped working and gives error.
Basically it doesn't create any XML output .
Please help . Its URGENT.
Thanks in Advance.

Hi Norman,
Thanks for the reply, actually my query was failing as it was trying to compare English date format (1-MAY-2007) which was stored in a DFF with Dutch date (1-MIE-2007) database format ,so it was not generating any xml output.
We have resolved this issue but now we are facing few other issue which are ,
I have created a template which has a current date field. I inserted current date in Dutch format i,e, (1-juni-2007), but concurrent program output appears with english date format (1-June-2007).
Same template has the customer name with 'Title' and this also appear in english i.e.Sir , in place of dutch title (Dhr.)
Is it possible to display .pdf output with
portrait (first page - Letter to customer)
and landscape(second page - Invoice data details) styles for multiple customers in one request?
We can do it for one customer by passing customer id so letter part (portrait output) is out of grouping and only data details (landscape) appear with multiple lines , but when we try to run it for multiple customers in one go , WITHOUT specifying a customer , it FAILS .
Any help will be highly appreciated.
Thanks - Manoj, Utrecht

Xml Publisher Report Without RDF

Hi experts,
I need to customize the seeded XML publisher report.Till now i developed XML publisher reports by developing rdf only. But here i didn't see any rdf for it..
without rdf how we can create the xml publisher report. I need to insert a field in this report where i need to insert this field.
where i found the SQL query for this report.Please help me
Thanks
Ashok

Thank u,
Here I need to customize the Sales Order XSL Template which is a seeded template in Order Management.
and it will execute when user select the actions button-> print and prview .so there is no concurrent program for this.they did the setups for this.
I didn't find any datetemplate for this in data defination window.here I need to change this one as
1.     Update the Report Header to read “Dispatch Note” instead of “ORDERING DOCUMENT”.
2.     Inclusion of logo for each police authority (Open Issue).
3.     Modification to include *“United Kingdom” instead of U.S.* in the free text portion of the PRODUCT section. “United Kingdom” value will be derived from the country specified for the selected organization and not hardcoded.
4.     Footer to include shipment date instead of Sales Order Creation date and the document should be available to print only after Ship Confirm.
5.     Updating the Layout template in the Transaction Type setup, so that it points to the modified layout template.
6.     The modified Dispatch Note document will be included in the Ship Confirm document set and this document set will be included in the respective Ship Confirm rules. This Ship Confirm Rule will be attached in the Shipping parameters tabs for both the organisations. This step would enable the Dispatch Note to be printed automatically after successful completion Ship Confirm process.
I have *.XSD file and .XSL file * .. I don't find any data template in datadefination window to see the SQL query.
I thought now i have to change the *.XSD AND .XSL FILES* is it right? Is there any other solution for this ..
Thanks
Ashok

XML Publisher report not printing excel output due to special characters

Hello,
I am trying to create a xml publisher report which should display the output in excel. But the program completes with a warning status and the output is displayed as XML instead of excel, with some errors "An invalid character was found in text content. Error processing resource " and i think these errors are due to the special characters(eg: city/province - A Coruña, Cáceres). If i give rownum < 10 in my query, where there are no such characters it works fine and i am getting an excel output.
Tried changing the XML encoding and it doesn't help (both mentioned below)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
Do anyone have a solution for this
Thanks in advance

XML Publisher Report Finished in Warning 11i EBS HRMS

Hi there
I have developed XML Publisher Report using Developer 6i Data Module, this report works fine for specific sets of records. but When I run this report for All Companies This Report Finished in Warning.
Note: XML Data is generated in this report I can see the XML Data in explorer.
This report is for Oracle 11.5.10.2 (HRMS)
Oracle XML Publisher 5.6 Build 45
++++++++++++
AND When I load this XML file into Template at MS Word, I loaded Successfully and When I try to get the PREVIEW, I GET the following ERROR
Font Dir: C:\Program Files\Oracle\XML Publisher Desktop\Template Builder for Word\fonts
Run XDO Start
RTFProcessor setLocale: en-us
FOProcessor setData: M:\ATCO\Disco\Employee Profile Report\Defect\119\XXPEREMPPROFILE4.xml

ASIM

Is the XML file Complete with all tags closed? Issues with Oracle prevent the completion of the XML file. It truncates in between and hence is not parsed successfully by the XML Template.
Also, try setting the following to 'TRUE' under XML Publisher Administrator>Administration Tab
1) Use XML Publisher's XSLT processor.
2) Enable scalable feature of XSLT processor.
3) Enable XSLT runtime optimization.

XML Publisher Report:how to disappear the column if no data found

Hi,
I have a XMl publisher report requirement , the format is tabular lets say with the structure of 4 columns and 10 rows.requirement is to if suppose there is no data for row number 6 the row itself should not appear over the report and the immediate next row should come in place.
please help me if any one of u has implemented the same.
Ankit

Ankit,
This is almost hard to work although NOT impossible to achieve on the template.
A little big of PL/SQL genius where all the columns are selected into variables may be used to achieve this, although you will have to manage them accordingly.
I don't any other way round it.
