Landscape PDF Report Print Problem....?

Dear All,
I have campiled 6i report (Landscape PDF) in Report10g and successfully deploy on web through OAS 10g forms and report services.
When we run this report on web it gives perfect landscape preview but it always prints as Portrait.
Please guide us to get Landscape print.
Thanks
Rana

So it wiil chang the format of thos reports.
Kindly gives the proper solution so that it will not change other report's format.

PDF Report prints Portrait Instead of Landscape

Hi,
We've created several PDF reports - some that print portrait and some landscape. For the portrait reports, they print fine both from Adobe Acrobat and directly from Oracle to the printer.
When we try to print a Landscape report, it prints as Landscape from Acrobat, but portrait from Oracle. We followed note 421358.1 on Metalink on how to set up a new .cfg file , print style, and print driver for printing landscape reports, but now it's not printing at all when we assign the style to the report. We tried removing -pairs and -shrink from the cfg file (Oracle analyst suggetsion) and it's still not printing.
Has anyone else had this much trouble trying to set up Landscape printing? We're using the acroread tool.
Thanks,
Suzanne

If you've bounced your concurrent manager, double checked your command string and it still doesn't print right, what O/S do you have and what version of acroread do you have? There's a known bug in Adobe 7 on HP-UX where landscape reports will generate in landscape correctly(i.e. copies=0) but when sent directly to a printer, they come out portrait. It happened to us on our system.
I tried -shrink and -landscape but it didn't work. Our user decided to just generate them and print them elsewhere.

PDF report printing is displaying '?' mark instead of thai characters

Hi All,
When trying to print PDF report I am getting question mark "?" for thai characters.
In browser it is showing properly.The problem is happening only when I open pdf file.It is showing "?" mark instead of thai characters.
I tried developing simple application in apex.oracle.com and I could reproduce the problem.It is showing "?" mark.
Below is the link:
http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=40394:1:1102169243398303
username: thai
paswd: thai123
Thai characters are displaying properly outside Apex.So there is no problem with BI Publisher.
I also tried the suggestion given in below link but no luck
Re: Cannot print out Chinese , show as '?' in pdf report
When I try the same thing in apex.oraclecorp.com it is working fine .I could clearly see thai characters.It is working fine
My Adobe version is 8.x
Is there any difference compared to apex.oraclecorp.com and apex.oracle.com settings for BI publisher?
nls_language on server = 'THAI_THAILAND.TH8TISASCII and' 'PlSqlLanguage = AMERICAN_AMERICA.AL32UTF8'
System Locale is set to thai and also the browser encoding set to thai windows
Thanks in advance for your inputs.
Kind Regards,
Anwar

Hello Mark,
I recommend to post this query to the [BusinessObjects Enterprise Administration|BI Platform; forum.
This forum is dedicated to topics related to administration and configuration of BusinessObjects Enterprise, BusinessObjects Edge, and Crystal Reports Server.
It is monitored by qualified technicians and you will get a faster response there.
Also, all BOE Administration queries remain in one place and thus can be easily searched in one place.

Hi Pravin,
Why don't you try sending the report print straight to the printer without saving into text.
Then you can customized the page print using printer definition files.

PDF report font problem

Dear all,
All our reports are developed by reports builder 10g (under windows) and deployed on an Application Server 10g (on Linux).
We had a problem with displaying the arabic letters, but this was solved by following the steps in the metalink doc no 726205.1 for generating arabic pdf reports on unix.
Now, the problem is that the font used in the reports is ARIAL, but when the reports are displayed (in PDF format) the font is TAHOMA. This font conversion happens in both Arabic and English reportsl.
I wonder how can I correct this behaviour.
Thanks in advance for your time.
Naglaa

I am not sure if this may be the solution, but I think you need to use font-subsetting.
Please have a look at the following documents:
Generating a Unicode PDF File - 11g Release 1 (11.1.1)

Does creating Excel,Word,PDF reports & printing in Apex need licensing ?

I am new to this Apex 4.0
I have installed the Apex 4.0 with Oracle 10g database.
Now using Apex if I create any web application, and develop some reports in the web application.
1) Now to do the printing of the reports in Excel,Word,PDF does Apex need some other components to be installed ?
2) Does those components needs licensing ? or are they free like Apex 4.0 ?

Hi,
Yes you need other components
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/apex/configure-printing-093060.html
Some of solutions need license, like BI Publisher.
There is also free solutions using e.g. Cocoon, Jasper reports ...

SQL Report - PDF Report Printing. How to show one row per page?

Hello
I have successfully created a simple SQL Report.
Than I enabled Report Printing to PDF (default Report Layout).
Export to PDF is working good by default.
Now I want to see one report row per one PDF page. Is it possible?
How I can change the amount of rows per PDF page using default report layout?
I tried to create a User Layout with MSWord Plugin. it's quite suitable for data forms.
But I still did not find a way around for my question.

I would create an User Layout (.rtf) with MSWord. Load your XML data and use the table wizzard to put the fields in your document.
Put this code after your last field and before the 'E' (= <?end for-each?> tag):
<?split-by-page-break:?>

Report print problems

we are working on a couple of reports that are giving us problems printing. on the first we are getting multiple records that are the same this report prints fine ,but when i add the distinct keyword to the query the report comes up blank on the web. in the client/server environment the report prints the expected results. the second report is simply passed one parameter and i want to print that parameter as a barcode. i can also get this report to run in client/server but not on the web. these reports produce no errors just a blank report. we have other reports running fine but these two are driving me crazy. is there anything i should look for.
null

Hi nrp,
This seems to be more of a Windows error but it could be related to how LabVIEW is trying to communicate with IE too. I would recommend that you try the official example and see what happens. There is a VI in the Example Finder called HTML Report. It shows you how to correctly create a HTML report. There is also an example by the name of PrintControlReport.vi. This shows how you can then print any report that you’ve created. The combination of the two should give you what you need.
Hope this helps,

PDF format printing problem... (complex 6i reports conversion to 10g)

Hi All,
I hope somebody has solved this problem and could give me a hint. We have a lot of complex reports in 6i (client\server) and PDF format is the only option for us in 10g, I believe.
The previews of the report in 6i and 10g (PDF format) are very similar. When we send the report to the printer from 6i preview, the printout also looks the same as in the preview (with about 3mm sides margin), but when we print a PDF version of
the report with the default settings for Acrobat Reader, the printout gets huge
margins and it is absolutely unacceptable for our company. When we change “Page Scaling:” to “None” in Acrobat Reader printing settings, some information of the report doesn’t get printed on the paper (being cut off). This report has a landscape orientation and a legal paper size and these settings are also setup in the printer driver as default (for Oracle PDF writer). The testing was done on the developer workstation with local OC4J and a local report server (10g iDS).
I also tried to generate this report into PDF file by Oracle 6i Reports (client-server). Same problem. In Acrobat in looks fine, but in Acrobat preview, it only looks OK
when "Page Scaling:” is set to “None”, however, when it gets printed the report
data is being cut off (left and top parts). If "Page Scaling" is set to "Fit to
Printable Area" (default), the report on paper gets resized with huge margins.
I hope it is not an Acrobat Reader v8 problem.
Thank you

Hi,
Was it a character mode report? While converting character mode reports to bitmap reports you have some layout problems. You might be facing similar issue it seems.
And there are many other formats supported by Reports 10g, not only pdf.
