Mathematical Font for Unicode Support

Hi everyone,
Does anyone know a Font which supports most of the mathematical symbols in Unicode 5.0? by that I mean the following tables from Unicode 5.0 (As much as possible!)
- Math Operators U+2200 - U+22FF
- Math Supplemental Math Operators U+2A00 - U+2AFF
- Misc. Math Symbols - A U+27C0 - U+27EF
- Misc. Math Symbols - B U+2980 - U+29FF
I have tried a lot of fonts but no luck so far. I can really use your help guys!

jhxcx,
It's currently not on our roadmap to include Unicode support for Measurement Studio VC++. You can make a product suggestion at this page http://digital.ni.com/applications/psc.nsf/default?OpenForm&temp1=&node= to keep the issue on R&Ds radar.

    I got again a total system freeze today when I wanted to launch firefox using only the openbox menu, without wbar running.
    So I decided to try now the 'nouveau.noaccel=1' kernel command line parameter, and to use again wbar for my frequently used applis.
    In the Xorg log, the differences are:
    without 'nouveau.noaccel=1'

    [ 30.761] (II) Unloading nv

    [ 1191.621] (==) NOUVEAU(0): DPMS enabled
    So now 3D acceleration is disabled.
    I will see now if the system is stable enough for my daily usage and gives satisfactory performances.
    I am almost sure that the mesa nouveau dri driver is the cause of the freezes.

  • Font for multilanguage support

    Hi,
    How can I use embed fonts for multi language support. If i set embed fonts  = false; then the text input is taking any language but i need to use embed fonts as well as need to support any language
    How can I acheive that.
    Please give me suggesstion

    If you want to use multi langauge you could use internationalization in java.

  • How to know whether my oracle 10g instalation in unicode supported or not

    Hi
    i am new to oracle. I have installed Oracle 10g client and server.
    I want to know whether the database created can store unicode data/arabic data.
    Please guide me how can i find whether unicode support is on for my db or not.
    The outputs of some of the queries run by me are as follows:
    SQL> HOST ECHO $NLS_LANG;
    $NLS_LANG
    SQL> HOST ECHO %NLS_LANG%;
    %NLS_LANG%
    SQL> @.[%NLS_LANG%];

    Please reply me asap.

    1. Yeh that is the thing I want. What are the other steps that i need to do with my Oracle Client/Server for unicode support.
    Where i am getting trouble is the Oracle Client/Server unicode support.
    And how to decide what character set will suite me best.1. If your application is going to be a "true" Unicode application, you can set the NLS_LANG registry/environment setting on your clients to ".UTF8" to enable true Unicode support.
    2. Your database needs to support Unicode, too.
    The recommended database character set for this in 10g is "AL32UTF8".
    If you currently have a single-byte database character set (WE8MSWIN1252), you need to decide how to get this done.
    If you can simply create a new database using the "AL32UTF8" character set, this would be the easiest way.
    There are several documents available (e.g. on Oracle MetaLink) that describe in detail how to convert the character set of an existing database. Depending on your data this can be a tedious task involving several steps, so may be creating a new database and exporting/importing the data might be the simplest choice if you need to migrate some existing data.
    The recommended national character set is "AL16UTF16", by the way, but that shouldn't matter that much once you have a Unicode enabled database using "AL32UTF8" as database character set.
    2. How to set/retrive the "Database Character Set" and "National Character Set". This has already been answered partly. Retrieve:
    Database Character Set:
    SELECT VALUE FROM NLS_DATABASE_PARAMETERS WHERE PARAMETER = 'NLS_CHARACTERSET';National Character Set:
    SELECT VALUE FROM NLS_DATABASE_PARAMETERS WHERE PARAMETER = 'NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET';In most of the cases you can't just simply set/alter the character sets, as outlined above.

  • Arial Unicode font for Tamil, etc.?

    Looking for some style alternatives to the InaiMathi font included in OS X for the Tamil language, I noted at the the Gallery of Unicode Fonts that the Arial Unicode font includes Tamil characters, and remembered that that font is now included with OS X (10.5). I checked with Character Palette and indeed the Tamil characters are there, but they aren't recognized as equivalent to those in InaiMathi. And when I try to change some Tamil words in a document from InaiMathi to Arial Unicode, nothing happens.
    I don't understand a lot about Unicode, but I know the Arial Unicode font has been around for a while (it was more or less the original effort to create a single Unicode font including all the major alphabetic scripts), and don't understand why it would contain the Tamil character set but not work for that script. It doesn't seem to work for Tibetan either, though it contains that character set as well. In fact, according to Character Palette, it seems about 90% of Arial Unicode is "character variants" that "won't display correctly". What's it for, then, anyone have any idea?

    +I have always thought Windows fonts cannot be used for display. Could you describe how you use Character Palette to do that?+
    Well, not "display" in the sense of opening a file using an OpenType font on the Mac and seeing it display properly. What I do in Character Palette with an OpenType font like Sanskrit2003 is scroll through the font to find the elements I want and double-click them to enter them in a document. Of course this workaround is feasible only for the occasional word, not for whole sentences or paragraphs. I'm not a big time user of any of this, so I can manage for the occasional word I want.
    +The reason they do this is because a lot of documents and web pages could specify Arial in them and users would get the idea that OS X does not support Devanagari, Tamil, Tibetan, etc unless they switch the font, which is impossible in Safari.+
    Yeah, I can see the reason; but wouldn't it be easier in the long run to just enable OpenType fonts so everyone can use the same fonts? And it is annoying that you can't specify fonts in Safari like in Camino.
    +I agree, but have doubts this will happen soon. Perhaps more likely is an app like Mellel which does OpenType could be expanded to cover these scripts.+
    Several years ago the developer of Mellel assured me that v.2 would support Indic scripts. But it never happened.
    +In the meantime, OpenOffice/X11 does work for display I think.+
    Yes, OpenType fonts can be used in OpenOffice/X11 (which is no longer being developed, BTW, now that there's a native OS X version). But not AAT fonts.
    +This might interest you:+
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1577715&tstart=0
    Indeed, though much of it is over my head. I just want to be able to use the same fonts for Indic languages as everyone else, just as I can in Chinese, etc.

  • Unicode support for Nokia 5233 and the like device...

    Hello. I'm just a lurker on the forums but i recently made a switch from my old 6500 slide (Series 40) to a 5233.
    When i got my new device, i wasn't exactly happy due to they (The salesmen) didn't inform me about the lack of 3G compatibility but my bigger problem is lack of Unicode support.
    I cannot browse my Japanese files on my mSD nor can i browse my Japanese forums and sites on my 5233. I've been using my 5600 slide at the moment and was wondering if there is an avaliable language pack, character set pack or font pack?
    Thanks.
    EDIT: Fixed a few typos. Hope anyone can help me.

    You need to visit a Nokia care center for language packs,they may charge a small fee for it.

  • Unicode font for swing components

    Hi all,
    I'd like to set a Swing component (a JLabel) to a particular font so it will properly display Unicode Greek text. I've been reading all about physical vs. logical fonts, and I've read through the various Sun docs/faqs on Internationalization, Fonts, and Unicode, but I just can't get this to work. I think I'm missing something more basic here about selecting my font. My test word is the Greek "khairete," with an accent over the iota. Here is the Unicode:
    \u03c7\u03b1\u1f77\u03c1\u03b5\u03c4\u03b5
    The trick is that accented iota.
    I can launch an xterm that shows the characters I want like this:
    $ xterm -fn -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--18-120-100-100-c-90-iso10646-1 &
    That tells me that if I can get Java to use that font, then I'm all set. I'm trying the following test program:
    import java.awt.*;
    import java.awt.event.*;
    import javax.swing.*;
    import javax.swing.event.*;
    import java.io.*;
    public class GUI extends JFrame {
    public static final String MESSAGE = "\u03c7\u03b1\u1f77\u03c1\u03b5\u03c4\u03b5";
    public GUI() throws Exception {
    super();
    Font[] fonts;
    Container container;
    JLabel label;
    fonts = GraphicsEnvironment.getLocalGraphicsEnvironment().getAllFonts();
    for (int j=0;j<fonts.length;j++) {
    System.out.println(fonts[j]);
    container = getContentPane();
    container.setLayout(new GridLayout(0, 1));
    // try with the default font
    label = new JLabel(MESSAGE);
    container.add(label);
    printFont(label.getFont());
    // see what the default font looks like when PLAIN (to compare with fonts below)
    label = new JLabel(MESSAGE);
    label.setFont(label.getFont().deriveFont(Font.PLAIN, 12));
    container.add(label);
    printFont(label.getFont());
    // this looks the same as the default font, meaning we didn't find what we asked for.
    label = new JLabel(MESSAGE);
    label.setFont(new Font("-misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--18-120-100-100-c-90-iso10646-1", Font.PLAIN, 12));
    container.add(label);
    printFont(label.getFont());
    // this also falls back to the default.
    label = new JLabel(MESSAGE);
    label.setFont(Font.getFont("-misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--18-120-100-100-c-90-iso10646-1"));
    container.add(label);
    printFont(label.getFont());
    // this (of course) falls back to the default.
    label = new JLabel(MESSAGE);
    label.setFont(Font.getFont("not a font name"));
    container.add(label);
    printFont(label.getFont());
    // try every font we've got!
    for (int j = 0; j < fonts.length; j++) {
    label = new JLabel(fonts[j] + ": " + MESSAGE);
    label.setFont(fonts[j].deriveFont(Font.PLAIN, 12));
    container.add(label);
    setDefaultCloseOperation(EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
    pack();
    show();
    public static void printFont(Font f) {
    System.out.println(f);
    if (f != null) {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
    GUI me = new GUI();
    But nothing in this code succeedings in printing \u1f77. As I've said, the plain old xterm can do it. I think my problem is that I haven't successfully referenced the desired font in the Java code. But how do I do this? These are the fonts available to me, according to the code above:

    Hi Sojan,
    first up, forget the notion of even tinkering with the font.properties file if you can. It's an old, outdated method of setting up the fonts that Sun doesn't even support any more. Use setFont() where you can, and die trying in the process! ;-)
    One thing I would check is which font each AWT component currently thinks it has. It's easy enough to set the font system wide with Swing components, but I'm not sure if that capability extends to AWT components (I've certainly had trouble with it in various places in the past). While you've set up the Chinese font correctly, your AWT components might still be stuck with the Java default (Helvetica, or whatever it is, which is incapable of displaying Chinese), and hence displaying the rectangles because they don't know how to handle the foreign characters. You might need to set SimSun as the font for each of your AWT components individually at a worst-case scenario.
    Hope that helps,
    Martin Hughes

  • How can I install asian script for language support for bangla in safari and install a font??

    how can I install asian script for language support for bangla in safari and install a font? Some websites are working fine in ipad and iphone4 but not in mac osx supported imac or macbook. Example: www.sonarbangladesh.com.

    You just need to install a font, like one of these:

  • Call upon even better support for Unicode

    Hello
    Following some messages I have posted regarding problems I encountered while developing a non-English web application, I would like to call upon an even better support for Unicode. Before I describe my call, I want to say that I consider Berkeley DBXML a superb product. Superb. It lets us develop very clean and maintainable applications. Maintainability is, in my view, the keyword in good software development practices.
    In this message I would like to remind you that the US-ASCII 8-bit set of characters only represents 0.4% of all characters in the world. It is also true to say that most of our software comes from efforts of American developers, for which I am of course very grateful.
    But problems with non US-ASCII characters are very very time consuming to solve. To start with, our operating systems need to be configured especially for unicode, our servers too, our development tools too, our source code too and, finally, our data too. That's a lot of configuring, isn't it? Believe me, as a Flemish french-speaking, danish-speaking developer who develops currently a new application in Portuguese, I know what I am talking about.
    Have you ever tried to write a Java class called Ação.java, that loads an xml instance called Ação.xml that contains something like <?xml version="1.0" charset="utf-8"?></ação variável="descrição"/>? It takes at least the double of time to have all this work right in a web application on a Linux server than it would take to write a Acao.java that loads Acao.xml containing <?xml version="1.0" charset="us-ascii"?></acao variavel="descricao"/> (which is clearly something we do not want in Portugal).
    I have experienced a problem while using the dbxml shell to load documents that have utf-8 encoded names. See difficulties retrieving documents with non ascii characters in name The work around is not to use the dbxml shell, with which I am of course not very happy.
    So, while trying not to be arrogant and while trying to express my very very great appreciation for this great product, I call upon even better support for Unicode. After all, when the rest of us, that use another 65279 characters in our software, will be able to use this great product without problems, will it not contribute to the success of Berkeley DBXML?
    Thank you
    Koen

    Hello John and thank you for replying,
    You are completely correct that it is a shell problem. I investigated and found solutions for running dbxml in a Linux shell. On Windows, as one could expect, no solution so far.
    Here is an overview of my investigation, which I hope will be useful for other developers which also presist writing code and xml in their language.
    difficulties retrieving documents with non ascii characters in name
    I was wondering though if it would not be possible to write the dbxml shell in such a way that it becomes independent from the encoding of the shell. Surely their must be, not? Rewrite dbxml in Java? Any candidates :-) ?
    Thanks again for the very good work,
    Koen

  • Unicode Support for Brio 8

    <p>Does Brio 8 (or any of the subsequent Hyperion versions)provide support for Unicode characters. If no, how do wetackle reporting from databases containing non-English characterslike German, Japanese etc. Thanks..Cheers..</p>

    It's not what you describe, but here is more detail on what I'm doing.
    This an example of the value string I'm storing. It's a simple xml object, converted to a unicode string, encoded in utf-8:
    u'<d cdt="1267569920" eml="[email protected]" nm="\u3059\u3053\u3099\u304f\u597d\u304d\u306a\u4e16\u754c" pwd="2689367b205c16ce32ed4200942b8b8b1e262dfc70d9bc9fbc77c49699a4f1df" sx="M" tx="000000000" zp="07030" />'
    The nm attribute is Japanese text: すごく好きな世界
    So when I add a secondary index on nm, my callback function is an xml parser which returns the value of a given attribute:
    Generically it's this:
    def callbackfn (attribute):
    """Define how the secondary index retrieves the desired attribute from the data value"""
    return lambda primary_key, primary_data: xml_utils.parse_item_attribute(primary_data, attribute)
    And so for this specific attribute ("nm"), my callback function is:
    callbackfn('nm')
    As I said in my original post, if I add this the the db, I get this type error:
    TypeError: DB associate callback should return DB_DONOTINDEX/string/list of strings.
    But when I do not place a secondary index on "nm", the type error does not occur.
    So that's consistent with what Sandra wrote in the other post, i.e.:
    "Berkeley DB never operates on the value part of a record. Values are simply payload, to be stored with keys and reliably delivered back to the application on demand."
    My guess is that I need to add an additional utf-8 encoding or decoding to the callback function, or else define a custom comparsion function so the callback will know what to do with the nm attribute value, but I'm not sure what exactly.

  • Update FM7 fonts to fm11 unicode support

    Hi to all,
    a customer of mine would upgrade to framemaker 11 from fm7. He make documentation in a lot of languages, western, but also Central europe, middle east, chinese, russian, etc.
    In FM7 he used Helvetica CE, Arial CE, Times Greek, Helvetica Cyr, and so on.
    Now he would like to convert his files to unicode support (Arial, Myriad...).
    Suggestions?
    Thanks.
    Mario.

    A further issue with the transition from overlay/codepage fonts to Unicode is whether or not the desired typefaces are available as Unicode, and whether or not they have all the required glyphs populated at the Unicode code points used in your documents.
    Assuming that any arbitrary "Unicode" font covers more than a fraction of Unicode codepoints would be a mistake. Generating, scaling, hinting and otherwise optimizing 110 000 glyphs is a daunting task. I wouldn't be surprised if no single font has covered it all yet (other than Adobe Blank). The question then becomes: what's missing? I suspect most "Unicode" fonts have only a tiny fraction of Unicode space covered. There's also the question of whether variations (italic, bold, etc.) match the basic coverage.
    You might expect font foundries to provide pages or PDFs detailing all the Unicode scripts a font covers, by variation, and showing at least a bitmapped preview of what each glyph looks like. This doesn't seem to be the case.
    A few minutes in Adobe's Type Products discovered no obvious means of determining codepoint coverage. A couple of other big name foundries at least had icon sets, each icon representing a Unicode Script set, but no comprehensive list of codepoints covered. At least one site allowed pasting/typing arbitrary text into a dialog so you could see if a particular glyph was populated, and what it looked like. Hope you don't have questions about too many.
    Unless I've missed something, this situation appears to be a mess.
    And how does FM8+ behave when the document contains a codepoint not implemented by the font applied?
    Zero-length character?
    Blank?
    [] or [?]?
    Switches to font that has the codepoint?

  • Nokia N8 - Unicode support

    While browsing blogs, I found that nokia browser doesnt support unicode. I tried with Opera 10 too. Can anyone please let me know if there's a way to see unicode fonts on Nokia N8.
    PS: I tried changing the internet settings on my mobile by selecting Unicode (UTF8/UCS2) as default setting and restarted the device..Tried to download some third party tools but the mobile doesnt support those.
    I tried to visit my own blog www.konnekarunakar.blogspot.com on my mobile which is in telugu language.

    After installation change the settings > advanced> protocol to HTTP
    Test if all the sites are connecting. If not switch to advance > protocol to socket.
    If all the site are working. Go to address and write opera:config > click go to/ enter
    You can able to see an option like this " Enable Use Bitmap font for complex script (Make it yes) > Save"
    Thats all you have done. Restart your phone and view your tamil unicode blogs & websites.
    Note :The above option you will get it only in opera mini not in opera mobile application.
    For difference between opera mini & opera mobile this article will helps you. http://my.opera.com/operamobile/blog/2009/12/03/di​fference-between-opera-mobile-10-and-opera-mini-5
