Junk Characters in Devanagari Character Display

Dear All:
I am working on a JAVA Devanagari Word Processor in
which user types in English and adjacent JTextBox
converts it into Devanagari(Hindi) Fonts.
This is how I have specified the fonts:
Font f2 = new Font("Other", Font.PLAIN, 18);
textbox2.setFont(f2);
But my problem is that I see a lot of junk characters
which shouldnt be there.
They do go away if I minimize the Window and then
mazimize it.
But theyare quite an eye-soar.
Any suggestions, pls.
Thanks.
ChetanJust sounds like you're drawing things inconsistently. When you minimize/maximize the window, your paint() or paintComponent() or equivalent method(s) are being called, which then re-paint it correctly. Sounds like somewhere else in your code you are painting other junk intermittently and inconsistent with the way paint() will do it.

Junk characters like" � � "displayed in the jsp page please help.

Hi,
I am getting junk characters like � � displayed in the jsp page.
In the JSP page i used javascript "& nbsp" for appending spaces to a string "CCR" to get "CCR " .
Now the Resultant string "CCR " has three spaces appended to its right.
This String is set in session in that JSP page.
In the next JSP page i am getting that string from session.
After getting the string the "substring" function is performed to get only the first 5 charcters of the string. Now the result is displayed as " CCR� � " with has last 2 characters as junk values � � insteed of displaying as "CCR ". Please help me in solving this issue.
Please note that initially the sting "CCR" is got from the Oracle database in Solaris Machine.
Regards,
Vijay

have you tried:
strenuously inspecting the string that is coming from the db? do an actual loop over the string, character by character, dumping to System.out to make sure the characters are EXACT coming out of the db.
note you have to append " " not just "& nbsp"
post the code that is doing the output. the relevant bean code, the jsp, everything relevant - WITH COMMENTS discussing where things are happening.
Also, is it "weird characters" in the browser only? have you done a view source on the actual html source that the browser is rendering (right click in IE and click view source). browsers can act odd if you don't feed then exactly what they want, and it looks like you're feeding it escaped characters that it is rendering as something else.

Junk characters are displayed in report output

Hi Gurus,
We are facing an issue while generating a report developed in Oracle 10g, while fetching the data in one column the report is displaying junk characters although while running the query on the database the value is coming correct for the same column. We are writing the report data on the AIX and with the help of WEBUTIL the reports gets transferred on the client machine which is having windows XP as operating system. Although we have many reports running on the same concepts but only in this particular report the issue is coming.
Our AS Version is 10.1.2.3.0
OS Version is AIX 5.3
Please provide some solution.
Thanks in advance.

Pradip

Hi Roberto,
Thanks for your reply.
As per your suggestion , I had checked with both DB & AS both are same i.e.
In DB it displays the value AMERICAN and for AS it displays NLS_LANG=AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8ISO8859P1
Please give some idea. Sometimes this report gives the right output and sometimes gives output having one column with junk character of CSV file.
Regards,
Pradip

Report displaying junk characters or Greek or some other language

Hi All,
I have one Custom report in PDF. It is a simple tabular report. When I run this report from Report Builder, it runs fine but when I register it in Oracle Apps and run it from there, it displays all the characters in Greek or some other language or junk characters. Sometimes it works if I change font. But its a trial and error. I dont understand why is it happening. This has happened with one of my other reports too. It worked when I changed the font and its size. This time it didnt work. Any clue how can I fix this issue?
Any lead will be appreciated.
Thanks,
CAH

Hi Hussein,
We have similiar issue with our custom PDF reports. We are in the process of upgrading from 11.5.9 to R12.
All these reports work fine in 11.5.9.
Following are the details of our R12 environment:
1) What is the application release? Application release is 12.1.1
2) What is application/database characterset? Database - 11.1.0.7.0 and characterset is UTF8.
3) Is this a text or bitmap report? What is the report language? - It is a text report and Language is English
4) Do you use PASTA for printing? - Yes we do
5) Do you get the correct printout if you print the concurrent request output file from the OS? - If I run the report from report builder directly, Yes. If from Oracle Apps, no.
6) Expected output: "Days in Queue"
Actual Output: when I copy and paste the output here it is showing correct. But on the report it is showing
something like ∆Ωµ.....
7) If I try changing the font, it works
8) A different text field on the same report with the same font shows good.
I would appreciate your help on this one.
Thanks

Hi Terri,

Character display problem latin characters

For some reason old fonts show latin characters when i type "o/" and "l/". The problem seems confined to old fonts (at least Geneva; Monaco; New York), so I guess it is a bug?

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.

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:

 else
 System.out.println("Mail Server Not Connectd ");
This code is working properly and i am able to send mail with attachment and html formatted content without any problem. But console of server is filled up with too much junk characters because of which the catalina.out file of tomcat server is becoming fully filled.
Sample cosnole display with junk characters are as follows:
Subject: HBSP - DRUCKER - QC - CH16 - QC R2 Completed

Like this display of junk characters are filling up multiple pages of console file.
Can any one suggest me how to overcome this problem?
Many thanks in advance.

There is no "sendmail" method in the JavaMail API.
The debug flag is set using the Session.setDebug method, or by setting the Session property "mail.debug".
If you're using someone else's helper classes with JavaMail, they may provide another way to set it.

Please let me know what is the problem
~Aman

ok here's the sample of what you want to achieve:
document.getElementById(comboname).length=1;
 for(var x = 1;x<=parseFloat(text.substring(text.lastIndexOf("|")+1,text.length));x++){
 document.getElementById(comboname).length++;
 textVal = text.substring(0,text.indexOf("|"));
 text = text.substring(text.indexOf("|")+1,text.length);
 document.getElementById(comboname).options[x].value=textVal;
 document.getElementById(comboname).options[x].text=textVal;}

Bitmap reports(Junk characters)

Report Gurus,
Whenever I am converting a character mode report to bitmap, I end up with lot of junk characters in the report output. And at most of the times I've to manually play around with the fonts of the layout and after lot of hit & trial's the output appears. Can anyone shed some light on why does this happen? Why does the output turn into junk if one is converting a character mode report to bitmap? I am running the reports in Oracle Application's framework, does that have anything to do with this?
Let me know your thoughts on this.
Thanks in advance.
Regards.

Hi,
there's no direct support for the format triggers out of Oracle Reports. Therefore they are mentioned in the log file and in the created layout after conversion the objects with format triggers are colored red to show, that there you had to do some additional work.
Currently you had to built the logic of format triggers in BI Publisher new. Hve a look in the User Guide, there are some examples for if or choose statements.

Umlaut characters getting distorted while displaying in Web dynpro java

Hi All,
I have a scenario where I am reading some string values from a properties file placed in java DC.
The values read from properties file are to be displayed in Web Dynpro application.
The string values contain some umlaut characters eg (ü,ä).
While displaying in web Dynpro application the umlaut characters are getting distorted.
Any pointers for the same?
Regards
Radhika Kuthiala

Hi Radhika,
Solution1> you can convert the property file in the encoded format, in the DC having the pr0perty file.
use this command in the command line:-->native2ascii -encoding utf8 file.txt file2.txt
Are we renaming hte files after changing the format?
In one of my previous project we have property file with the french character so we got error, to avoid this we have manually transtaled the file and utilized in the application and used the command in dos promt:-
native2ascii -encoding utf8 source.txt destination.txt ,
here if you want to replace the existing file u have to give same name source and destination file. But we have created 2 seprate file. after translation you will something like Fre/uooch king of output.
Solution3> you can read the file and save in the Strign format and use java package import java.nio.charset.; and encode the string. ---
Pls refer the below link:-
http://mindprod.com/jgloss/encoding.html
Hope this may help you.
