Junk Character displayed when language is Japanese

Hi,
I have one PG1where there is a a textbox for additional information input.Now after putting the Additional text there and when user click OK then it comes to PG2 and that information is populated in certain text area.
This is for your information that the text is coming from PG1 to PG2 through hashmap. Now here the issue is when we are putting text n PG1 with some different language other than english like Japanese then the text in PG2 coming as '?????'.(junk character).
Can you please let me know how to handle this ?
Thanks

For NLS Customers, if after submitting a page you get garbage characters then you need to install OJSP1.1.2.
Please check release notes accompanying your OA Framework patchset, and Metalink Note 132604.1 for more details.
or try adding unicode char set
Add the following line to apps.conf.
<IfModule mod_mime.c>
AddType "text/html; charset=us7ascii" html
</IfModule>

Arabic letters are displayed as junk character in PDF preview

When we try to view (HFR Financial reports in PDF preview Arabic letters are displayed as junk character. While the same is shown correctly in HTML view.
Oracle EPMA version we are using 11.1.1.3, please provide some solution on this issue

This could help if you are connecting to essbase or planning:
1.Set the ESSLANG environment variable on the Essbase server to
ESSLANG= Arabic - Saudi Arabia (ISO)@Binary
2. In Financial Reporting, you must use the Essbase APS ADM driver rather then the Essbase Native ADM driver. Set the driver in \Hyperion\products\biplus\lib\fr_global.properties by setting the parameter
UseEssbaseEDS=1
3. In \Hyperion\products\biplus\lib\fr.env, set the ESSLANG environment variable as follows:
ESSLANG= Arabic - Saudi Arabia (ISO)@Binary
4. Re-start the Essbase and Financial Reporting services.

HRA is 10,000 ,then in report it is coming like 10*u*000,or if it is 1,00,000 then it is displayed like 1*u*00*u*000.
any suggestion would be very helpful

You should be able to use translate function to help you replace the comma. Search the forum as well for similar threads. Here is one that might help.

ECC6.0 - PDF issue - Junk Character output after Upgrade from 4.7c

Hi All,
I am working in Uprgade project(from 4.7c Non-unicode system to ECC6.0 unicode system).
We are facing PDF output issue in ECC6.0 that means we are getting junk character output(screenshot is attached for your reference).
In 4.7c , we have stroed the OTF data in table after generated from smartform as we should not get different output in future. Whenever we need output of the same then we are getting the OTF data from that table and we will generate pdf through "Convert_otf" function module.This logic is working fine in 4.7c.
In ECC6.0 ,the same logic is not working as system is unicode sytem and we are getting junk character output.
As per my old upgrade project experience , i have used the below piece of code for solve this junk character issue but still I am facing the same issue.
Kindly note that in my old upgrade project i have regenerated the OTF data in ECC6.0 and used the below piece of code then I got correct output but here I have to use the old OTF data (from table) which was generated in 4.7c.
Please any one can give solution for this issue.

Hi,
as you can see in SAP notes 842767 and 1349413, spool data cannot be converted properly for all types in a Unicode conversion.
This might be possible if you have English (US7ASCII) characters only, but with Chinese characters I do not think that a small piece of code can do it ...
Hence I think you need to recreate the data on the Unicode system ...
Best regards,
Nils Buerckel

Who did you receive that information from? The Safari path in the renderer was only added in 7.02. You can confirm with the Platform Availability Matrix on the Service Marketplace the offically supported browser/release combinations. http://service.sap.com/pam
According to the July 2011 version of the PAM Safari 4 on MacOS 10.5/6 is supported as of 7.02 SP4 and Safari 5 on MacOS 10.5/6 is supported as of 7.02 SP5. There are no additional listings for Safari on any other releases or operating systems.

Logo in Smartform output to pdf format is coming as Junk Character

Hi All,
I have a requirement to generate the Smartform output in PDF file. But when i am doing that i am getting the LOGO as Junk character in the PDF file. Can any one help me to resolve this issue?.
Thanks,

Yes check the spool and the output displayed correctly in the spool it means there is a problem when you convert OTF to PDF. Check that part of the code and try different options.

Problem with SQL Convert Function Junk Character

Hi All,
We have a database field that has a value of “2.020 OPERATOE’S CAB – GLASSES” on the front end of Oracle E-Business Suite. When we are spooling that column(in PLSQL) with the SQL covert function , one of the characters(’) in the string is not getting converted properly. It is displayed as a junk character in the spooled file.
We used CONVERT(p_column,'WE8ISO8859P1','UTF8') for converting the string and utl_file api for spooling the output file. Please note that converted string is passed to utl_file.fopen directly.
Following are the nls_parameters values.
NLS_CHARACTERSET ~~ UTF8
NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET ~~ AL16UTF16
Any inputs are welcome.
Thanks

Showing junk character

Dear all,
I am using oracle9i. I got the export from one place and tried to import in my database. Both the source and destination database character set is WE8IS08859PI. After importing the data, i tried to pull the data in the excel. One of the field is varchar2(2000) and it contains new line character. When i open the data in TOAD, it shows correctly. But when i pull in excel or any other front end, it is showing as a junk character(square box) for new line chatacter. New line character is suppressed and displaying new line character as square box(junk character). How do we resolve the issue?

try a search and replace within Excel on the junk character to replace it with ''.
cheers,

Character display problems....11g connecting to SQL server

Hi Gurus,
db: 11.2
os: redhat 5.5
there is a problem when with character display with sqlplus and even worst on TOAD, SQL Developer tool.
there is a Heterogeneous connection between 11g and ms sql serever. i use freedts, unixodbc and dg4odbc to establish the connection.
using isql tool...the select statement was well formatted..see sample |
| Ventes USIM |
| Resprise de charge provisionnees sur creance BUT when i use sqlplus some character are shattered..please see sample
COST_NAME
V e n t e s U S I M
R e s p r i s e d e c h a r g e p r o v i s i o n n e e s s u r c r e
a n c ein other client tool e.g TOAD the output is worse just show only the first character of each row e.g V
i have tried french and english value for nls_language but did not solve the problem.
anybody with a clue of what is wrong...thanks

It looks like some wrong character set conversion (more exactly -- lack of it) involving UTF-16 from MS SQL Server NVARCHAR data type. I cannot tell what went wrong and if this is a bug as I do not have experience with this configuration. Please, work with Oracle Support to diagnose and fix this issue.

How to display the Portal System ID in a theme or iView?

Hi everyone,
I am trying to figure out a standard way to display the Portal system ID within the portal theme or within an iView. The complaint from users is that, if they are working in both Production and multiple test systems simultaneously, it is very difficult to decipher which system they are actually in.
Does anyone have experience with this previously?
Thanks in advance.

Hello Charles.
A standard way is a modification of the Portal name which is displayed in a title bar of a browser's window. For this you have to edit the Central Configuration:
1. Open System Administration > System Configuration > Service Configuration;
2. In Browse Tab open Portal Runtime > Central Configuration;
3. Locate and modify portal.html.head.title property.
4. Save changes.
5. Restart portal server.
Best regards,

Non-Latin Character Display On Web Page

In a Java web application, only one non-Latin character display issue is that when they are typied into a JSP file. Otherwise, non-Latin characters display correctly from the message property file or from database.
Anyone know how to solve it?

Just need to have the JSP page tag on the related JSP file.

Welcome to our community, Denise
Perhaps check the names of all the files involved? What type
of web server are you using?
You say that your co-worker said she is linking to the skin
file from a .htm page, but what is missing here is whether she is
using the .HTM page you provided in the mix or if it's one she
created herself. If it's one she created herself, that may be the
issue.
