Output not printing correctly for BI Publisher report.

Hi All,
We have a BI Publisher report which is printing correctly on one printer but not on another printer. The top and right side of the output are getting truncated. Printer type for both the printer is same that is "--PASTA Universal Printer Type" and both are using the same printer driver 'PASTA_PDF' and same style 'PDF Publisher'.
Please let me know how can I debug the issue.
Thanks
Vishalaksha

Steve- I understand what you are mentioning about the ftp, the XML file looks okay on both server and the client except for the letter 'ü ' and the rest of the German characters prints okay. THe problem is that the BI reprot is printing the same wrong characters.

Special German characters not printing correctly on BI pub report

Hi
We have a BI PU Report which gets the XML from the 6i reprot, the titles on the report are dervied from a custom table where we store the label value for each language. THis is worked so for okay on NA, now we migrated this to Europe and having issues with the label value. when the XML is viewed from the unix server the value appears oaky (the value is : Abnahmeprüfzeugnis),
but when I copy the XML output and view it from the desktop, it appears as AbnahmeprÃ¼fzeugnis , bsically it replaces ü with Ã¼.
The pdf output also prints this wrong value (as AbnahmeprÃ¼fzeugnis). Not sure what's wrong with this. Please let me know if you have any ideas?
Thanks,
Ravi

Printing requirements for Bi publisher report

Hi all
Can any one tell me the steps required for me to look at the setups on my server side so that i can print the reports using the bursting API.The problem is i am not able to debug the log file as there is no connection error or any other exception but still i am not able to see the documents printed.
this is part of my log file
POST /printers/u260 HTTP/1.1Host: u260:631
User-Agent: Oracle XML Publisher 5.6.3
Connection: Keep-Alive
Transfer-Encoding: chunked
Content-Type: application/ipp
<<<
IPP version: 10
operation id: 410
charset: utf-8
request id: 1
-- operation attrs --
[1]attributes-charset:utf-8
[1]attributes-natural-language:en-us
-- printer attrs --
-- job attrs --
From this i understood that there is no problem with the connection but some how it is not printing.
Any help will be appreciated as i am having tough time figuring out this.
Thanks

You need about 40 GB total. Also make sure that your /tmp and /var/tmp have about 2GB free in them, otherwise the installation will fail. (I can't remember the exact numbers, though.)
I agree, the system requirements do not exist anywere in any straightforward documentation. You need to read at least three different documents to piece together the requirements, and the results will still be incomplete.

If employee id is the same should not print on the xml publisher report

Hi Dear,
I met with one problem and needs some suggestion on the best approach on it. It is a xml publisher report.
We have multiple rows for the same employee , but for the same employee only the first row needs to print the emplid.
Do we need to write the if statement , how to get the value of the last row emplid ?
For example :
EMPLID EMP_RCD STATE
1001 0 CA
1 TX
Any suggestion is appreciated.
Thanks,
Dennis

I understand your requirement is as follows:
Requirement:_
The data is this ->
EMPLID COLUMN 1 COLUMN 2 COLUMN 3
EMPLID_01 DATA_01_01 DATA_02_01 DATA_03_01
EMPLID_01 DATA_01_02 DATA_02_02 DATA_03_02
EMPLID_01 DATA_01_03 DATA_02_03 DATA_03_03
EMPLID_02 DATA_01_04 DATA_02_04 DATA_03_04
And you need report in this format:
EMPLID_01 DATA_01_01 DATA_02_01 DATA_03_01
DATA_01_02 DATA_02_02 DATA_03_02
DATA_01_03 DATA_02_03 DATA_03_03
EMPLID_02 DATA_01_03 DATA_02_04 DATA_03_04
Solution:_
If my understanding is correct, then you can make use of variables
at start of template set the variable to 0
*<?xdoxslt:set_variable($_XDOCTX,'PREV_EMPLID',0)?>*
at the end of each data row, reset the variable
*<?xdoxslt:set_variable($_XDOCTX,'PREV_EMPLID',EMPLID)?>*
while printing emplid in that row use IF condition
*<?if:(xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX, 'PREV_EMPLID'))!=EMPLID?>*
The above If condition will print emplid on the row only when there is change in EMPLID, so effectively printing emplid only on the 1st row of data for each employee id.
Also, you need to ensure that you group by employee id before you print each row.
Let me know if this works for you.

Colors not printing correctly for OfficeJet J4580

Hi,
I have the OfficeJet J4580. I recently changed the tri-color printer cartridge and now my colors aren't printing properly. I just printed some postage for a package and instead of printing black it printed in red. I then tried a different colored word document and the black printed fine, but the colors on the document are blurry and incorrect. I thought maybe it was a bad replacement cartridge so I exchanged it with another brand new one and I'm still having the same problem. Don't know what to do.

Hello timdar,
All right, remove the cartridges and clean the copper plates of the cartridges and the corresponding part in the carriage manually, just in case there's some dirt or ink that is preventing the cartridges and printer to communicate properly. Use a cloth dampened with some water to clean these parts. You can also see if a copy or a test page from the printer itself shows any issues with the colours or the black. If you check the links in the post above you will find how to print the test page and what it should look like.
If a copy and test pages look all right but the prints from your computer still show these issues, make sure that the correct printer is set as the default printer in Printers&Faxes or Devices and Printers. If it is, power cycle the printer and reconnect the USB cable just in case... Last resort would be to reinstall the drivers for the printer, just delete the printer in Printers&Faxes and reconnect the USB cable.
If this doesn't solve it I would suggest that you return the cartridge to where you bought it. When you get a replacement, make sure that it's an original HP cartridge.

Format number not working correctly in XML Publisher Report

Hi,
I have requirement to print sum(column1) with number format with commas on the header.
I tried giving <?format-number:sum(//CURRENT_COST);'99G990D00'?> this formula is sum current cost column and displaying as 140.253.123.00 but i want to display the same as 140,253,123.00
i even tried <?xdoxslt:xdo_format_number_l(sum(CURRENT_COST),'999G999D99','EN-us')?> but its even giving the same result as 140.253.123.00
Please let me know if anyone had the same issue.
Thanks.

Hi,
You can't mix the XMLP extended functions (ie anything prefixed with xdofx) with xsl functions (see user guide - Extended SQL and XSL Functions).
You could look at using the Choose statement or doing a set of IF statements
ie <?if:CURRENCY='JPY'?>format...<?end if?><?if:CURRENCY...<?end if?>
If you go with the multiple IF statements you will probably need to use <?if@inlines:CURRENCY='JPY'?> otherwise you will get carriage returns (see IF statements in boilerplate text in the user guide).
Thanks

Sorting not working correctly for date field in alv report

Hi All,
My report displays many rows also containing date type fields of bldat,budat .
When I sort the report selecting field of type bldat budat the sorting is not correct for the year.
Ex:
Invoice doc dat
01-25-2011
01-21-2011
02-02-2011
10-25-2010
11-20-2010
If I use ascending then it is sorted as :
Invoice doc dat
01-21-2011
01-25-2011
02-02-2011
10-20-2010
10-25-2010
Why the sorting is not working correct for year.(2010 records should have been first).
The field wa_tab-bldat is of type char10.
It is populated as wa_tab-bldat = bsak-bldat.
Kindly suggest what can be done.

The field wa_tab-bldat is of type char10
Then what it does is correct.
Refer to type datum...it will work

Creating Parameters in RTF Template for BI Publisher Report

hi,
I have created Parameters in my BI Publisher Report and in SQL query. But i need to create same parameters in RTF Template , so that when i publish this report in dashboard , parameters will be visible. Can you please tell me how to create Parameters in RTF Template for BI Publisher Report ? I am not finding option. Please let me know .
Thanks in advance
Gayathri.

all the parameter's value will be there in your xml .
just you need to add parameter heading and corresponding xml tag name to get the parameter value on the report.
if u dont have you can try like below
https://blogs.oracle.com/xmlpublisher/entry/get_your_parameters_here_guv
Declare Parameter in RTF Template
Before you use the parameter in the RTF template file you need to declare it first. You can do so by having the following syntax.
<?param@begin:%parameter_name%?>
Note: where %parameter_name% is the parameter name that you have created at the BI Publisher Server UI.
Here is an example:
<?param@begin:param1?>
Use it in RTF Template!
Once it’s declared in the RTF template you can start using it as the same way you use the variable. You need to just add ‘$’ prefix in front of the parameter name. Here is the example:
<?$param1?>
The above example would print the parameter value in the report output. If you want to use this value in your condition or calculation you can simply use it as ‘$param1’. Yes, it’s that simple.
If you are not sure if and how the parameter values are passed to the report when you run the report you can use this command in your RTF template, which will return all the parameter values passed to the RTF template at the runtime.
<?xdoxslt:getXDOProperties($_XDOCTX)?>

Added text & signatures do not print correctly

I am using Acrobat Reader v10.4.4 on my iPad Mini with IOS 6.1.2 and am having issues printing. I can open any PDF and have it displayed correctly. I can add text and signatures and the document is saved correctly because it can be opened after the changes are made and they are still there. When I try to print the document where I have added text and signatures to, the document does not print correctly. All of the text and the signature are shrunk to a very small size and appear in the lower left hand of the page.
I depend on my apps to work they way they should and having this issue makes my work very hard. I have to be very creative and perform unnecessary steps to get my PDF's to print the way they should. Does anyone have some insight in to this bug?

Hi,
Thanks for reporting this issue. We would like to investigate this issue at our end and if you could share one such pdf file in which you are facing the issue at [email protected], that would greatly help us.
Thanks,

FO processing for XML Publisher Report Bursting Program

Hello,
I am facing the following problem: if i try to burst a report using XML Publisher Report Bursting Program special characters like (ş,ţ,ă, etc.) in the resulting PDF look strange. I have tried running the report without bursting it and the characters appear just fine (after i've set the FO Processing Font Mapping). My guess is that XML Publisher Report Bursting Program is not using the right font mapping. Have you faced this problem before? Do you have any idea how to set the right font mapping for XML Publisher Report Bursting Program.
Thank you.

So the answer was to make sure the location in the bursting file (location="xdo://schema.template_code.en.US) exactly matches the language/country setting in the uploaded Definition. Then make sure the fonts have been added to the xdo.cfg file matching what your Font Mappings are:

<truetype path="/app/erp1/applmgr/apps/tech_st/10.1.3/appsutil/jdk/jre/lib/fonts/CAMBRIA.TTC" />


<truetype path="/app/erp1/applmgr/apps/tech_st/10.1.3/appsutil/jdk/jre/lib/fonts/CAMBRIAB.TTF" />


<truetype path="/app/erp1/applmgr/apps/tech_st/10.1.3/appsutil/jdk/jre/lib/fonts/CAMBRIAB.TTF" />


<truetype path="/app/erp1/applmgr/apps/tech_st/10.1.3/appsutil/jdk/jre/lib/fonts/CAMBRIAB.TTF" />

PDF will not print correctly from any app

I seem to keep on getting the same error everywhere I print on SL (from safari/firefox/preview etc etc)
It will usually print any lines or logos but miss all text?? I did have the dreaded adobe reader installed but have since removed it?
I am in urgent need of printing out some manuals for a class so in real trouble, help!

Where do these PDFs that do not print correctly come from? Are they downloaded from the internet or from email? Or do you create them yourself on your computer? If so, in which program?
Do some PDF files print correctly, but not others? Did you remove the dreaded Acrobat Reader before this problem developed or after? Did this problem develop only after you ungraded to a certain release of Snow Leopard or has it never worked in SL?
PDF is wonderful technology, but every so often there can be issues.
