Netscape using plugin doesn't display Japanese characters in a tree node

Hi,
I have a problem displaying a swing tree node name in Japanese. The problem only occurs on Netscape browsers. When I run the same applet with Internet Explorer, all the Japanese displays correctly. Now, with Netscape, the node name is displayed in little rectangle characters but the tooltip is displayed in Japanese. I don't believe I have any problem with the Java code because it works with IE.
I am using the java 1.3.1_01 plugin on a Windows NT machine that has a Japanese OS. I've also installed Japanese versions of Netscape. Also, Netscape is able to display my help files in Japanese correctly, so I am wondering if the problem is with the java plugin.
Any clues?
Many thanks

Found the problem. I set a font type of Arial. It's best to set the type to MS Gothic, or dont' set it at all so the system default font is used.

[Solved] URXVT cannot display Japanese Characters

Solved:
I had a typo in my locale.conf, setting to an invalid locale - apparently that did it.
Thanks for the help!
Hi everybody!
I just now re-installed Arch because I switched hard-drives (to an SSD) and everything seems to be working again, apart from one thing:
urxvt doesn't display Japanese Characters, just questionmarks instead when using ls and garbage characters otherwise.
I literally copied and pasted my ~/.Xresources from my old install, so I'm not quite sure what went wrong.
This is said file:
Urxvt.urgentOnBell: True
urxvt*cursorBlink: false
!urxvt*internalBorder: 0
!urxvt*externalBorder: 0
URxvt*.depth: 32
URxvt*.background: [85]#000000

!URxvt.font: 8x13
urxvt*font: xft:DejaVu Sans Mono:size=8:antialas=true,xft:Kochi Gothic:size=8
This is what fc-list has to say:
% fc-list | grep "Kochi\|DejaVuSansMono"
/usr/share/fonts/TTF/DejaVuSansMono.ttf: DejaVu Sans Mono:style=Book
/usr/share/fonts/TTF/kochi-mincho-subst.ttf: Kochi Mincho,æ±é¢¨ææ:style=Regular,æ¨æº

/usr/share/fonts/TTF/DejaVuSansMono-Bold.ttf: DejaVu Sans Mono:style=Bold
/usr/share/fonts/TTF/DejaVuSansMono-BoldOblique.ttf: DejaVu Sans Mono:style=Bold Oblique
I already tried re-installing the fonts and I also tried out alternative fonts, but nothing seems to work.
All the other settings from the ~/.Xresources file are applied perfectly, so I'm not quite sure where to look for the error.
My browser (dwb) displays japanese characters just fine.
Any help is greatly appreciated
Edit: I just realized that urxvt seems to completely ignore the fonts line - I had that problem once before, when I used the AMD Catalyst driver and not the open source one.
I now have an Nvidia card and started using the propietary driver - maybe that has something to do with it?

Works here:

URxvt*termName: rxvt-256color
URxvt.font: xft:Terminus:pixelsize=12:antialias=false
urxvt.imLocale: pl_PL.ISO8859-2
What's the output of 'localectl'?

[Bug Report] CR4E V2: Exported PDF displays Japanese characters incorrectly

We now plan to transport a legacy application from VB to Java with Crystal Reports for Eclipse. It is required to export report as PDF file, but result PDFs display Japanese characters incorrectly for field with some mostly used Japanese fonts (MS Gothic & Mincho).
Here is our sample Crystal Reports project: [download related resources here|http://sites.google.com/site/cr4eexportpdf/example-of-cr4e-export-pdf]
1. PDFExportSample.rpt located under ..\src contains fields with different Japanese fonts.
2. Run SampleViewerFrameClient#main(..) to open a Java Report Viewer:
    a) At zoom rate 100%, everything is ok.
    b) Change zoom rate to 200% or 50%, some fields in Japanese font collapse.
    c) Export to PDF file,
         * Fonts "MS Gothic & Mincho": both ASCII & Japanese characters failed.
         * Fonts "Meiryo & HGKyokashotai": everything works well.
         * Open PDF properties, you will see all fonts are embedded with built-in encoding.
         * Interest to note that copy collapsed Japanese characters from Acrobat Reader, then
           paste them into a Notepad window, Notepad will show the correct Japanese characters anyway.
           It seems PDF export in CR4E mistaking to choose right typeface for Japanese characters
           from some TTF file.
3. Open PDFExportSample.rpt in Crystal Report 2008 Designer (trial version), and export it as PDF.
    The result PDF displays both ASCII & Japanese characters without any problem.
Test environment as below:
* Windows XP Professional SP3 (Japanese) with MS Office which including extra fonts (i.e. HGKyokashotai)
* Font version: MS Gothic, Mincho, Meiryo, all in Version 5.0
    You can download MS Meiryo from Microsoft's Site:
    http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=F7D758D2-46FF-4C55-92F2-69AE834AC928&displaylang=en)
* Eclipse 3.5.2
* Crystal Reports for Eclipse, V2, 12.2.207.r916
Can this problem be fixed? If yes how long will it take to release a patch?
We really looking forward to a solution before abandoning CR4E.
Thanks for any reply.

I have created a [simple PDF file|http://sites.google.com/site/cr4eexportpdf/inside-the-pdf/simple.pdf?attredirects=0&d=1] exported from CR4E. It is expected to display "漢字" (or in unicode as "\u6F22\u5B57"), but instead being rendered in different ones of "殱塸" (in unicode as "\u6BB1\u5878").

Problem in displaying Japanese characters on the browser.

Hi Friends,
Hope one of you could help me in this!!
We are using SHIFT_JIS character encoding in our jsps to display Japanese characters.
<%@ page contentType="text/html; charset=SHIFT_JIS" %>
Is there any other configuration required on server side to let the Japanese characters being displayed? Because what I am getting on screen is quite annoying. Well something like below.
?V?M???????�
Even though my knowledge in Japs isn't too good :-)) I can understand that these are not Japanese. I believe I am missing something in terms of server side configuration, Can anybody point that out. (Maybe some of the Japanese developers in here).
This could not be a client side issue, since from the same machine I can access other Japanese sites and they display properly. Let me know if anybody can help.
I am running these in WAS 5.0
Thanks,
King

Your text in the JSP should be UTF-8 nevertheless - as would be ideal
for internationalization. Java comes with a command-line conversion tool
native2ascii which is bidirectional.
As non-Japanese I am not certain whether "SJIS" might not be better (there
are some name variations in java).
The HTML generation will translate these characters to SHIFT_JIS in your case.
Where the target encoding cannot handle the intended character it receives a
question mark - hat you saw.
Furthermore you need a proper font in HTML and under Windows (window title).
Your webserver should have east-asian support. Though Japanese (and English)
are standard, I, as non-japanese am not certain about SHIFT_JIS.
Also there is some freedom in choice for a japanese encoding.

Charcterset to display Japanese characters

I am using Oracle 8i
Database (server) characterset & ncharcharcterset is utf8.
What value i have to set in Client to display Japanese characters?

Hello,
I had the same problem as you have:
Loading japanese and chinese data
two steps are necessary:
1) On XP: Control Panel->Regional and Language Options->Languages tab: aktivate
"install files for ost asian languages" (you need the winxp install cd!!!)
2) Run your select statement from SQL*Plus, iSQL*Plus or SQLDeveloper

Display Japanese characters on Applet

Hi All,
I am able to display Japanese Characters on my Applet locally(Windows 2000 - US) by overwriting the font.properties content with the one in font.properties.ja found in JRE/LIB directory of my Jdeveloper JDK. When I deploy the applet on 9ias server which is configured for UTF8 charset I get squares wherever I have Japanese characters.
Appreciate if someone could tell the procedures to make the applet to recognize the Japanese/UTF8 characters and display accordingly.

I have read some documentation on JDBC thin drivers and they have mentioned that whenever JDBC retreives data from a database it converts it to Unicode 1.2 and I am already retreiving data from a UTF 8 database. The reason I think this is true is because I can display japanese characters locally on my windows machine by overwriting the font.properties in the JDevelopers- JDK- JRE - LIB folder by font.properties.ja
There must be some way to test why it is showing squares for japanese characters when I deploy it on the server. May be not getting the MS Gothic font used to display Japanese?
Looks like updating all the code is not feasible at this point as the code currently stores the data in Vectors and we can't perform a vector.getBytes(). Any help will be really appreciated.

ITunes not displaying Japanese characters...

Ever since a few days ago, iTunes stopped displaying Japanese characters for any of the songs that have them. They display right on the iPod and on my computer, and even if I re-type them, they continue being boxes. But if I copy and paste a section of cubes and paste it into Google Chrome or anything else, they show up just fine...
Is there any way to fix that?
Thanks~

Onscreen keyboard doesn't display all characters in QWERTY mode in iOS7

Since installing iOS7, the onscreen keyboard has been sluggish. Tonight, all of a sudden, the onscreen keyboard doesn't display all characters on the keys in QWERTY mode - only the B, N, comma, and period keys show their characters on their key face. All of the other white keys are blank. When you press one of the blank keys, the character does display on the key face momentarily and does show in the text box that you are typing in. This only seems to occur in QWERTY mode. If you switch to QWERTZ or AZERTY software keyboard layouts, the keys do display their characters on their key face. If you split the keyboard in QWERTY mode the all keys display normally. This occurs in any application.
We've tried:
Turning off and turning off
Resetting by holding the sleep/wake and home button
Settings->General->Reset->Reset All Settings
Nothing has worked so far... Help!

Titlebar on Solaris does not display Japanese characters

I have a Java Swing application (running on 1.6.0_06) that sets Japanese characters on the titlebar of Dialogs. The Japanese characters display correctly when the application runs on Windows but displays as ? when run under Solaris.
Details of the Solaris environment:
Japanese Solaris (UTF-8 encoding)
Japanese locale (ja_JP)
Using an X server that has the required font support (because Japanese characters display correctly everywhere except in the titlebar)
Using CDE as the session manager (and I think dtwn is the window manager used by CDE)
The funny thing is that the Japanese characters display correctly when I use the JDE session manager instead of CDE, so the problem exists only with CDE and the Open Look interface as well. I tried setting the required resources for WMShell too but that didn't work.
I seem to be missing some CDE configuration somewhere as the window manager is not able to figure out that the title is non-C locale.
Any pointers or help in this regard would be appreciated.

You're probably viewing the website in the wrong character set.
Try View > Character Encoding > some Japanese encodings, or UTF8 or 16
The website itself should specify the encoding. The default encoding - in Options > Content - is only used if the website doesn't specify an encoding. Maybe the website you're looking at specifies the wrong encoding.

Displaying Japanese characters in JSP page

Hi,
I am calling an application which returns Japanese characters from my JSP. I am getting the captions in Japanese characters from the application and I am able to display the Japanese captions. After displaying the Japanese captions, user will select the particular captions by selecting the check box against the caption and Press Save button. Then I am storing the captions in the javascript string separated by :: and passing it to another JSP.
The acton JSP retrieves that string and split it by using tokenizer and store it in the database. When I retrieve it again from the database and display it, I am not able to see the Japanese characters, it is showing some other characters, may be characters encoded by ISO.
My database is UTF-8 enabled and in my server I am setting the UTF-8 as default encoding. In my JSP pages also, I am setting the charset and encoding type as UTF-8.
I shall appreciate you if you can help me in resolving the issue.

Post the encoding-related statements from your JSPs - there are a number of different ones that may be relevant.
It may also be relevant which database you store the strings in (Oracle, DB2, etc.), since some require an encoding parameter to be passed.

Thank you.

Hi,
In our JSP page we have included
<%@ page contentType="text/html; charset=SJIS" %>
at the top of the JSP Page. This enables the Japanese Strings to be displayed correctly on the page after beiing picked from the Resource Bundle.
Also just below the Head Tag we have included
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=shift-JIS">
This enables the Japanese data to be retrieved from the database as well as set the data successfully in the database if the upper Tag
<%@ page contentType="text/html; charset=SJIS" %>
is specified then the strings from the database are displayes as a series of ????????? , Now what we are looking for is a solution to get both the things right that is getting and setting the strings from the database as japanese and getting the strings from the Resource bundles as japanese .
We have also tried the tomcat Web server , but it is of no use as we have found ourselves right where we had started .
Earliest response will be deeply appreciated

[Solved] TTY doesn't display special characters correctly

Hello everyone.
I want to set my system language to german. I followed this tutorial: https://wiki.archlinux.de/title/Arch_Li … .BCber_HAL
Everything works good except that my TTY can't display special characters. Example:
http://i.imgur.com/ZW6kbOS.png
The is " not showing correctly at the bottom. However, the german umlaut ä works (as you can see).
I have already searched the arch forum. The only thing i have found is setting DAEMON_LOCALE="yes" in rc.conf. However, these post are already quite old and don't solve the my problem (as öäü are working). Additionally, Arch has stopped using rc.conf.
So, what causes this problem and how can i solve it?
Here are my configs:

I'm pretty sure you have to specify font and font map in vconsole.conf
like so:
FONT=Lat2-Terminus16
FONT_MAP=8859-2
If that doesn't help it could be this.
If so try to load settings manually, I can't test German setup, but for Polish I could do this to get national characters:
loadkeys pl
setfont Lat2-Terminus16 -m 8859-2
that requires to be root/sudo
note that -m 8859-2 part is quite important
edit:
actually got all German symbols to be displayed correctly, though I do not know if they are assigned for right keys for obvious reasons
loadkeys de-latin1-nodeadkeys
setfont Lat2-Terminus16 -m 8859-2
read read topic in then link to hopefuly fix why settings are not loaded on boot

Can display Japanese characters but can't save to db properly

Hello! I'm having quite a predicament here! When getting Japanese characters in the database(characters are as-is), it successfully displays them. I manually put it in the database. But when I try to save to the database using the browser(textfields, submits, connections, etc), it saves as garbage.
Here's the code on my first page. It only gets user input then submits to another jsp
<%@ page contentType="text/html; charset=utf-8" language="java" import="java.sql.*" errorPage="" %>

Thanks once again for replying
I got it to work but its still foggy to me why it does work.
I replaced the code
<%! ResultSet rs = null; %>
     <% request.setCharacterEncoding("utf-8");
          String entry = request.getParameter("in1");
          out.println(entry);
     %>with this
<%! ResultSet rs = null; %>
     <% //request.setCharacterEncoding("utf-8");
          String entry = new String(request.getParameter("in1").getBytes("iso-8859-1"), "utf-8");
          out.println(entry);
     %>Take a look at:
String entry = new String(request.getParameter("in1").getBytes("iso-8859-1"), "utf-8");Why do I need to specify the charset to "iso-8859-1" when getting the bytes then making it "utf-8" when finally making it into a string?

Problem in displaying Japanese characters in SAPScripts

Hi All,
I am facing a strange problem in one of my SAPScripts. I have one script in both English and Japanese languages. The scripts are already existing. I had to do some minor changes in a logo window. I did them and i did not do any other changes in any of the windows.
When the output wa s seen for the script in the Japanese version, it was looking ok displaying all hte Japanese characters in various windows. Now, during testing , in the same server, the Japanese characteres are not shown. Instead , some ' #'(hash) symb ols are getting displayed.
How could it happen? Did any body face such problem? If so, can anybody plz help me out with the solution?
What shud i do to get back the Japanese characters in my script again?
Regards,
Priya

Priya.
this is not an ABAP problem ask your BASIS team to set printer cofing from SPAD.dont worry its not an ABAP issue at all.
sometime printer doesnt support special char so it need to be setting with printer.
