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
Debashree

These might help
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>
Thanks

Junk characters displayed when viewing BEx query through WAD

Hello,
I am trying to display the results of a web report containing a BEx query through the "Execute in the Browser" option in WAD. But, junk Chinese characters keep showing up in the display. Also, if I try the same with one of the older web reports, they display fine. But, the moment I make a copy of these and execute without any modifications, the junk characters show up again.
I tried executing through RSRT and there my report works perfectly. So, what could be going wrong or am I missing something?
Thanks in advance!
Menaz

Thanks Emma.
We figured it was related to the Unicode charset while I was going through the source code. I don't think there is any permanent fix yet. But, I followed the posting below and am trying to temporarily fix the error:
Web Application Designer Appearing in Unicode (UTF-8)
Thank you!

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.

Unicode character not displaying when PDF is created using PDFMaker

Using Adobe Acrobat Pro 9
Our company letterhead contains a special character (Unicode 25AA "Black Small Square"). When a PDF is created of a Microsoft Word document (2003 or 2007) using the PDFMaker, that character is not displayed in Acrobat (shows as whitespace). Strangely enough, if I search for the character in that PDF file using the Acrobat search function (query "u/25AA"), the search finds the character, but again, it is displayed as whitespace.
However, if I create a PDF from that same Word document by printing to Adobe PDF, the character displays correctly in Acrobat. Additionally, if I do a SaveAs to PDF (Using the Microsoft plugin), the character displays correctly in Acrobat. This leads me to believe that muy issue is related to the PDFMaker (as opposed to the PDF printing function) and how the character is embedded into the PDF file. I have tried opening the PDF in other versions of Acrobat, but I get the same result.
Any suggestions? We would like to utilize the convenience of the PDFMaker for our letters and reports, and not have to use the print function. I can email a sample of all the PDF's I spoke of upon request, but the issue should be reproducable using the following steps:
1. Open MS Word and type (or copy from the Character Map) unicode character 25AA in Arial font.
2. Save Word file.
3. Use PDFMaker to create PDF file.
4. Open PDF file and view results.
Any guidance or help is appreciated.
Phil Hinton

First, check the fonts in the PDF to be sure that they are not embedded (you are likely correct that there is a problem). What job settings are you using. Try the press or print. Also check the job settings to be sure that ALL fonts are to be embedded.
Also, check the log file of Distiller (set it to not be deleted in the settings). If there is an issue with the license of the font then the font will not be embedded. In that case you need to find a licensed version of the font or change to a different font.

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

HELP!!! character display problem in JEditorPane

hi,
I got a headache with my program which needs to display multiple language html page in a JEditorPane. For example, if user requests a Chinese page then page is read in from an inputstreamreader using Chinese charset encoding. But what JEditorPane displays is squares and this is a very common font problem. I did everything I can
copy font.properties.zh to font.properties
set JEditorPane font as Font("SIMSUN",Font.PLAIN,12)
with the bug unsolved so far.
I am using Windows 2000/ME in UK locale.
Anybody could help please???

yes, the input data, for example in the case of Chinese Simpilify Character, is read in using a decoder with charset GB2312. I think I can print them out on prompt console but in a unrecognizable format.
Anyway, I would like to reconfirm the steps I took: (Presumably I know I am going to load a Chinese page)
1. rename font.properties.zh to font.properties
2. set the font of JEditorPane as ("SIMSUN",Font.PLAIN,12)
3. when try to load a Chinese page, there should be a ChangedCharSetException. extract the charset from the exception and use it to construct a new InputStreamReader.
4. I also set the content-type of JEditorPane as something like "text/html; charset=gb2312"
5. read in the data and parse it into a HTMLDocument instance.
6. finally use setDocument method to display the document on the JEditorPane.
In this way, the page gets displayed in unknown characters.
Anybody could show me something different but feasiable? Please!!!

Chinese Character display issue on Coldfusion 10

My Company using Coldfusion to built an report platform and recently I upgrade our Coldfusion 7MX with Windows Server 2003 to Coldfusion 10 Enterprise with Windosw Server 2008 R2.
I copy the Code from the Old server to the new one, but I met the problem I couldn’t solve.
We have a repost that can enter, modify and view our SRM that has Chinese Character display request. Chinese character was display without problem when the system in the old server. which look like following.
once I move the code into the new server, I got the problem with Chinese Character as following.
This report pulling the data from SQL2005 with Windows Server 2003 R2.
Coldfusion code code was same and both version is access to the same database.
I ran all of the update included to install the windows MUI for Chinese character into the new server, but I still can't get the character display correctly.
I can view the chinese character website without issue but only to display in the report.
I contact with Microsoft tech support but they don't have an solution for me. please help.

Install windows server language pack: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=12250
Are you sure the Chinese is encoded in UTF-8? (It should be, but you should check the database field type encoding.) If it's simplified chinese it could be set to GB18030 and if it's traditional chinese it could be Big5.
You might want to leave off the encoding directive in CF and load the page in a browser then change encodings using tools > encodings to see what works.
祝你好运！

OO4 character Display Problem

Hi All,
I am using Oracle OLE objects to connect to Oracle 9.2 DB
The NLS Language for the Database is AMERICAN_AMERICA.AR8ISO8859P6
the client is using also the same NLS.
When I retrive the information using OO4 some varchar2(Arabic Language) are return incorrectly from the DB, however when I use ADO on the same clinet it's correctly retrive all Data.
I've only on home at my PC, and its NLS language is correct, even when I use SQL*Pluse the characters are displayed correctly.
I also retrieved the NLS_LANG from the application using "SELECT USERENV ('LANGUAGE') FROM DUAL"
and it was correct using ADO and OO4.
Of course I've checked the registry value NLS_LANG and it's also AMERICAN_AMERICA.AR8ISO8859P6
Any Help????

I think after all it is a problem with the either:
a. OS installer, which should really try to delete fonts which are duplicated by new system fonts
b. OS which should give precedence to new system fonts over old system fonts where there are two the same, especially when the system fonts are in /System/Library/Fonts and the old ones are in /Library/Fonts
The major annoyance is that this problem appeared with Leopard and took me hours of searching to figure out its origin - when you don't know if it is a character entry problem (which I thought) or a character display problem (which it turned out to be). In the end the fix was simple - delete the superceded fonts.

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,
R
