Japanese Characters (Kanji) to be displayed in Oracle Reports

Hi,
We are developing an Oracle Report where we need to display Japanese (Kanji) characters in the report header. The display is static and hence the Kanji script can be a label.
However when we copy paste the Kanji script on the report layout in a boiler plate text we see only question marks.
Can someone help.

How to write Japanese characters (kanji) with OS X 10.5.8

How can I write text in Japanese characters (kanji), switching from English or Dutch and back in OS X 10.5.8 ?

walter Van Geyt wrote:
Maybe there is a way to input Hiragana, after which a choice of Kanji is offered, from which to choose the right one since many Kanji are pronounced the same way but have a different meaning (and Hiragana and Katakana are phonetic).
Of course, that is exactly what everyone does with Kotoeri. Perhaps you did not see Page 2 of the site?

You hit the space bar to bring up the Kanji choices.

Japanese Characters on MI client display.

Hi All,
I am having the Japanese OS PDA.but i am not able to see the Japanese character on the SAP MI Client interface.
In mobile 5 english OS device i am able to see the Japanese characters on SAP MI Client interface by making some changes at registry level.
I am using the softbank mobile 5 device.Please suggest.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks

Devendra..

Hi All,
To be more precise I am not familiar with the japanese language.There are many options for selecting the languge type in the keyboard like katakana,hiragana and kanji.Also we can set the charset value in the extra option in the menu of PIE.
I tried many permutation combination but i am getting squares instead of japanese characters.I think we might not have to make changes at the registry level as its a japanese OS PDA so something to do with settings for PIE.Please suggest.
Thanks

Display Integrated Oracle Report in New Browser Window

Hi All,
I am using APEX 3.0.1 and Reports Builder 10g and have integrated my Oracle Reports (.rdf) successfully with APEX.
The trouble is that the report output (in PDF format) is opening in the same browser window as my APEX application and I would like to spawn a new browser window to display the report output.
The report is being called from a button with a Target of URL and the URL Target is:
&REPORTS_URL.&module=DEBITNOTE_REP.rdf&destype=cache&desformat=pdf&P_DEBITNOTEID=&P73_DEBITNOTEID.
Kind Regards,
Gary.

Hi Garry,
Had to do the same thing last week.
1. Create a javascript function that accepts the report parameters and calls the window.open function for the reports URL
2. Change the URL on the report button to call this new function
It might also be worth using a cmdfile (see reports doco) to simplify the URL
cheers,
Ron

Displaying an Oracle Report

In order to run an Oracle 10g Report from HTML DB I have done the following
In my application substitutions I have
REPORT_URL http://200.0.1.198:7778/reports/rwservlet?USERID=*****/*****@HTML&
On my report button the URL is
&REPORT_URL.&module=CI_FORM_80.RDF&DESTYPE=FILE&DESFORMAT=PDF
The report runs to a file.
I know nothing about java, so how do I code this to show the Oracle
Report in a new window/browser

http://200.0.1.198:7778/reports/rwservlet?USERID=****
*/*****@HTML&For security reasons you shouldn't hardcode the userid in the url.
Use a mappping in the configuration file cgicmd.dat instead (you find it usually here: $ORACLE_HOME/reports/conf).
You could use a hyperlink with javascript:popUp('&REPORT_URL.&module=CI_FORM_80.RDF&DESTYPE=FILE&DESFORMAT=PDF')
to display the report in a new window.

Arabic characters are not getting displayed in oracle pdf output

Hi,
I am trying to print arabic characters in report output but junk characters are getting displayed in output.
Using 10g report builder, added the arabic labels in report layout.
Followed below steps:
1. Set NLS_LANG=ARABIC_United Arab Emirates.AR8MSWIN1256
2.Set REPORTS_PATH to the system font directoy such as C:\SYSROOT\Fonts
3.transferred the arialbd.ttf to $ORACLE_HOME/guicommon/tk/admin/AFM
4.Open uifont.ali under$ORACLE_HOME/guicommon/tk/admin, set the font alias
entries at [PDF:Subset] section.
[PDF:Subset]
Arial...Bold.. = "arialbd.ttf"
5. open datap462.ppd under $ORACLE_HOME/guicommon/tk/admin/ppd, set the font information like
*Font Arial-Bold: Standard "(001.001)" Standard ROM
6.added following entries:
Add this under the following section
## setting for Reports Runtime
REPORTS_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/reports/templates:$ORACLE_HOME/reports/samples/demo:$ORACLE_HOME/reports/integ:$ORACLE_HOME/reports/printers:$ORACLE_HOME/
guicommon/tk/admin/AFM:${REPORTS_PATH};
export REPORTS_PATH
b) Add this in the end of the Reports.sh file
PRINTER=dds62; export PRINTER
tk90_PRINTER=dds62; export tk90_PRINTER
tk90_PRINT_STATUS=echo; export tk90_PRINT_STATUS
=======================================
After having all these steps, still my report output is coming with junk characters.
Please help me on this and this is very urgent requirement for me and i am trying on this since 3 days.
Thanks,
Harini

Hello,
Try to set the Font Subsetting like below in the file uifont.ali
[PDF:Subset]
* = "arialbd.ttf"
If it works after this modification, the problem will be related to the Font Aliasing

How to create Japanese characters PDF files -- Oracle9i

After modified the uifont.ali file, I can get Japanese characters PDF file by running command line(rwrun.exe) on Oracle 9i AS.
If I call the report file from Oracle9i forms(by using run_report_object ), though the PDF file was created, the Japanese Characters can not be displayed correctly.

Japanese characters are broken

The code below prints the Japanese text properly in both System console and in browser
<%@ page contentType="text/html; charset=Shift_JIS" %>
<html>
<body>
<form>
<%
request.setCharacterEncoding("Shift_JIS");
String value = request.getParameter("txtJapan");
System.out.println("Value : " + value);
out.println("Value : " + value);
%>
<input name="txtJapan" >
<input type="SUBMIT" />
</form>
</body>
</html>However the same code is not working (i.e. Japanese characters are not correctly displayed) when this Page is called thru faces servlet. I have also tried using JSF components on this page, but they too don't display as expected.
Even after setting the content type and charcter encoding to Shift_JIS in JSP page (using the page directive as shown in the code above), after passing thru faces servlet both request.getCharacterEncoding() and response.getCharacterEncoding() return "null" and "ISO-8859-1" respectively
I think due to this I am not getting the Japanese character properly in browser as well as in System console.
In order to work I have created a filter and set both the content type and character encoding.
public void doFilter(ServletRequest request, ServletResponse response, FilterChain chain) throws IOException, ServletException {
     response.setContentType("text/html; charset=Shift_JIS");
     request.setCharacterEncoding("Shift_JIS");
     chain.doFilter(request, response);
}I don't know whether this approach is the right way or something has to be done in faces servlet itself.
I am also seeing another weird problem -- for the JSF command button if the label attribute value is "Go" then in the console I am getting the HTML encoded character (奈&#33391). But the browser automatically convert the encoded character and display Japanese character properly. However, when the label is anything other than "Go" both console as well as browser displays proper Japanese characters.

Heh, yeah, it's old topic and I wasn't really sure if somebody will reply to it, but I tried anyway.
I haven't come to issue of DB yet but I guess I'll as soon as I solve this one. I remember when I was using EA everything works so fine so I didn't pay any attention this time until some coworker told me.
I saw that filter and it's similar to mine which is unfortunately not working and I still have no ideas why.
Here's my filter code:
     public void doFilter(ServletRequest request, ServletResponse response, FilterChain chain) throws ServletException, IOException {
          System.err.println("Before: "+request.getParameter("form1:text1"));
          String encoding = "UTF-8";
          System.err.println("doFiler(): setting encoding to "+encoding);
          request.setCharacterEncoding(encoding);
          System.err.println("After: "+request.getParameter("form1:text1"));
          chain.doFilter(request, response);
When I enter string č�ćđ� and run it I get following to log
That's what I get in log file:
2004-09-01 15:08:16,264 INFO (EncodingFiler.java:33) => Before: ?????
2004-09-01 15:08:16,264 INFO (EncodingFiler.java:38) => doFiler(): setting encoding to UTF-8
2004-09-01 15:08:16,264 INFO (EncodingFiler.java:41) => After: ?????
but in JSP page I see ISO-8859-1. Any ideas?

How to fixed no.of characters on oracle reports

hi 2 all
Anybody know that how to fixed no. of character display on oracle reports.This can also be done through substr function but if any another option is available in oracle report builder so plz inform me.
Thanks
Zulqarnain

When you use 'Fixed' for vertical elasticity property, automatically data will be fixed to size of field. Define the field in layout model in character mode with size required.

How Oracle tables can be used to display Chinese/Japanese characters

If anyone knows how to display Chinese/Japanese characters from Oracle tables please reply this email. Thanks.
Regards,
Preston

hi
->Also please let me know how the Oracle Lite is licenced if I have 300 odd users of this offline applications
you should speak to your local oracle rep about that, for us for example they gave a pretty cheap packet for olite 10gr3+ 11g repository
->need to use only database part of Oracle Lite and not mobile server.
you cant do that. mobile server is the application server that handles the synchronization process from the server side. when a client tries to sync he actually connects to the mobile server and asks for the database changes , the mobile server know what the client must get so he packs it and give it to him
->you can ofc make lightweight .net apps using olite. we make olite apps even for wince handhelds. so yes ofcourse you can. olite had a win32 client also.
->can it run from usb.
ok here to be honest ive never tried that myself, looks kinda weird as a requirement to be honest but i dont see why it shouldnt run. if you set up the paths correctly you shouldnt have a problem i think.
->offline application will have more or less similar data entry forms and storage structure
yes ofcourse , if i have 3 tables in server i can choose to have 2(or all ) of them on the client too. i can even separate which client gets what. for instance if client a sells houses in new york he will get only the house table rows for new york. if another sells for chicago he will get those instead and etc.
->all client apps are offline and sync periodically (when you choose) to the server

Displaying Japanese characters in JSP page

Hi,
I am calling an application which returns Japanese characters from my JSP. I am getting the captions in Japanese characters from the application and I am able to display the Japanese captions. After displaying the Japanese captions, user will select the particular captions by selecting the check box against the caption and Press Save button. Then I am storing the captions in the javascript string separated by :: and passing it to another JSP.
The acton JSP retrieves that string and split it by using tokenizer and store it in the database. When I retrieve it again from the database and display it, I am not able to see the Japanese characters, it is showing some other characters, may be characters encoded by ISO.
My database is UTF-8 enabled and in my server I am setting the UTF-8 as default encoding. In my JSP pages also, I am setting the charset and encoding type as UTF-8.
I shall appreciate you if you can help me in resolving the issue.

Post the encoding-related statements from your JSPs - there are a number of different ones that may be relevant.
It may also be relevant which database you store the strings in (Oracle, DB2, etc.), since some require an encoding parameter to be passed.

Create HTML file that can display unicode (japanese) characters

Hi,
Product:           Java Web Application
Operating system:     Windows NT/2000 server, Linux, FreeBSD
Web Server:          IIS, Apache etc
Application server:     Tomcat 3.2.4, JRun, WebLogic etc
Database server:     MySQL 3.23.49, MS-SQL, Oracle etc
Java Architecture:     JSP (presentation) + Java Bean (Business logic)
Language:          English, Japanese, chinese, italian, arabic etc
Through our java application we need to create HTML files that have to display unicode text. Our present works well with English and most of the european character set. But when we tried to create HTML files that will display unidoce text, say japanese, only ???? is getting displayed. Following is the code we have used. The out on the browser displays the japanese characters correctly. But the created file displays only ??? in place of japanese chars. Can anybody tell how can we do it?
<%
String s = request.getParameter( "txt1" );
out.println("Orignial Text " + s);
//for html output
String f_str_content="";
f_str_content = f_str_content +"<HTML><HEAD>";
f_str_content = f_str_content +"<META content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" http-equiv=Content-Type></HEAD>";
f_str_content = f_str_content +"<BODY> ";
f_str_content = f_str_content +s;
f_str_content = f_str_content +"</BODY></HTML>";
f_str_content = new String(f_str_content.getBytes("8859_9"),"Shift_JIS");
out.println("file = " + f_str_content);
          byte f_arr_c_buffer1[] = new byte[f_str_content.length()];
f_str_content.getBytes(0,f_str_content.length(),f_arr_c_buffer1,0);
          f_arr_c_buffer1 = f_str_content.getBytes();
FileOutputStream l_obj_fout; //file object
//file object for html file
File l_obj_f5 = new File("jap127.html");
if(l_obj_f5.exists()) //for dir check
l_obj_f5.delete();
l_obj_f5.createNewFile();
l_obj_fout = new FileOutputStream(l_obj_f5); //file output stream for writing
for(int i = 0;i<f_arr_c_buffer1.length;i++ ) //for writing
l_obj_fout.write(f_arr_c_buffer1);
l_obj_fout.close();
%>
thanx.

Try changing the charset attribute within the META tag from 'utf-8' to 'SHIFT_JIS' or 'utf-16'. One of those two ought to do the trick for you.
Hope that helps,

Charcterset to display Japanese characters

I am using Oracle 8i
Database (server) characterset & ncharcharcterset is utf8.
What value i have to set in Client to display Japanese characters?

Hello,
I had the same problem as you have:
Loading japanese and chinese data
two steps are necessary:
1) On XP: Control Panel->Regional and Language Options->Languages tab: aktivate
"install files for ost asian languages" (you need the winxp install cd!!!)
2) Run your select statement from SQL*Plus, iSQL*Plus or SQLDeveloper
Sincerely,

Oracle Report Server Issue with Japanese Characters

We are trying to setup a Oracle Report Server to print the Japanese characters in the PDF format.
We have separate Oracle Report servers for printing English, Chinese and Vietnamese characters in PDF formats using Oracle Reports in the production which are running properly with Unix AIX version 5.3. Now we have a requirement to print the Japanese characters. Hence we tried to setup the new server for the same and the configurations are done as same as Chinese/Vietnamese report servers. But we are not able to print the Japanese characters.
I am providing the details which we followed to configure this new server.
1.     We have modified the reports.sh to map the proper NLS_LANG (JAPANESE_AMERICA.UTF8) and other Admin folder settings.
2.     We have configured the new report server via OPMN admin.
3.     We have copied the arialuni.ttf to Printers folder and we have converted this same .ttf file in AFM format. This AFM file has been copied to $ORACLE_HOME/guicommon/gk/JP_Admin/AFM folder.
4.     We have modified the uifont.ali (JP_admin folder) file for font subsetting.
5.     We have put an entry in JP_admin/PPD/datap462.ppd as *Font ArialUnicodeMS: Standard "(Version 1.01)" Standard ROM
6.     We have modified the Tk2Motif.rgb (JP_admin folder) file for character set mapping (Tk2Motif*fontMapCs: iso8859-1=UTF8) as we have enabled this one for other report servers as well.
Environment Details:-
Unix AIX version : 5300-07-05-0831
Oracle Version : 10.1.0.4.2
NLS_LANG : JAPANESE_AMERICA.UTF8
Font Mapping : Font Sub Setting in uifont.ali
Font Used for Printing : arialuni.ttf (Font Name : Arial Unicode MS)
The error thrown in the rwEng trace (rwEng-0.trc) file is as below
[2011/9/7 8:11:4:488] Error 50103 (C Engine): 20:11:04 ERR REP-3000: Internal error starting Oracle Toolkit.
The error thrown when trying to execute the reports is…
REP-0177: Error while running in remote server
Engine rwEng-0 crashed, job Id: 67
Our investigations and findings…
1.     We disabled the entry Tk2Motif*fontMapCs: iso8859-1=UTF8 in Tk2Motif.rgb then started the server. We found that no error is thrown in the rwEng trace file and we are able to print the report also in PDF format… (Please see the attached japarial.pdf for your verification) but we are able to see only junk characters. We verified the document settings in the PDF file for ensuring the font sub set. We are able to see the font sub setting is used.
2.     If we enable the above entry then the rwEng trace throwing the above error (oracle toolkit error) and reports engine is crashed.
It will be a great help from you if you can assist us to resolve this issue…

Maybe 7zip or another tool has workarounds for broken file names, you could try that.
Or you could try to go over the files in the zip archive one-by-one and write it to files out-1, out-2, ..., out-$n without concerning yourself with the file names. You could get file endings back via the mimetype.
This script might work:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <zip.h>
static const char *template = "./out-%04d.bin";
int main(int argc, char**argv)
int err = 0;
zip_t *arc = zip_open((const char*)argv[1], ZIP_RDONLY, &err);
if(arc == NULL)
printf("Failed to open ZIP, error %d\n", err);
return -1;
zip_int64_t n = zip_get_num_entries(arc, 0);
printf("%s: # of packed files: %d\n", argv[1], n);
for(int i = 0; i < n; i++)
zip_stat_t stat;
zip_stat_index(arc, i, ZIP_FL_UNCHANGED, &stat);
char buf[stat.size];
char oname[sizeof(template)];
zip_file_t *f = zip_fopen_index(arc, (zip_int64_t)i, ZIP_FL_UNCHANGED);
zip_fread(f, (void*)&buf[0], stat.size);
snprintf(&oname[0], sizeof(template), template, i);
FILE *of = fopen(oname, "wb");
fwrite(&buf[0], stat.size, 1, of);
printf("%s: %s => %lu bytes\n", argv[1], oname, stat.size);
zip_fclose(f);
fclose(of);
zip_close(arc);
return 0;
Compile with
gcc -std=gnu99 -O3 -o unzip unzip.c -lzip
and run as
./unzip $funnyzipfile
You should get template-named, numbered output files in the current directory.
