Overlapping of 1st & 2nd crowns of THAI characters

Hi All,
Overlapping of 1st & 2nd crowns of Thai characters after importing from .mif to FM8/9.
If contents before the problem characters are edited (add/delete spacing of characters), the position of 2nd crown will appear correctly.
PDF generated will have same problem as FM document.
Please help.
Regards,
P.C.

Hi,
Attached is what displayed in FM8, regardless of Windows-English or Windows-TH.
The 2nd crown of left character was not together with the characters.
The one on the right side is the correct character.
This is another sample, red one is NG and the green one is the correct one.
The FM version that I currently using is 8.0p266
Thank you!

Use system-wide Text replacement to superscript characters? 1st, 2nd, etc

I wanted to use the new text substitution in Snow Leopard to transform typed "1st" and "2nd's" into their 'correct' form with superscripted numerical suffixes. I tried to just easy do it by copying a corrected form out of Pages where I had created a proper "1st,", "2nd," and so on, but when I would paste them into the system prefs pane, they would just paste as regular numerals & letters instead of the superscripted variety.
I then thought to see if I could find the proper superscripted letters in the character viewer but came up empty. Does anyone know of a way to get this working? it's minor and all, but would be a nice addition.

1) yes, I know that
2) how would that help this situation any even if I hadn't? i didn't say "I can't get my text replacements to be accepted in any applications," I stated that I cannot find a way to get the Text System Prefs pane to accept supercripted numerical suffixes.
Sorry to be an *** about it, but everyone's always lambasting posters for not being clear enough or specific enough in what they're trying to do, and I was very clear about what I was asking and even in giving specifics on what i had done to try and remedy the situation myself.
I'm not asking how to get text replacement to work in apps, I'm asking how to get the system-wide text replacement to accept superscripted numerical suffixes in the first place. Maybe it's not possible? maybe it is and I'm missing something, but if so it's specific to the prefs pane, not other applications.

Remove 1st & 2nd lines in 1st file, and 1st line in 2nd file. I want the headers to be the first line after the script runs!

I have two files that look like this (Notepad++):
In the first file, which has a date as a name and always ends in 'COV', I want to remove the 1st & 2nd lines. All lines end in LF (LineFeed). In the 2nd file, which has a date as a name and always ends in 'RSK', I want to remove the 1st line.
Basically I want only the headers. I'm working with the code below. I've tried several different iterations of
reader.ReadLine().Skip(1);
reader.ReadLine().Skip(2);
reader.ReadLine().Skip(3);
It never really gives me what I want, so I can't tell what's going on here. I guess I'm missing something simple, but I don't know what. Any ideas, anyone?

Knowledge is the only thing that I can give you, and still retain, and we are both better off for it.

Call the ReadLine() twice if you want to skip the first two lines. Each call results in a single line being read:
static void Main(string[] args)
string sourceDirectory = @"C:\Users\rshuell\Desktop\Downloads\Files";
try
var txtFiles = Directory.EnumerateFiles(sourceDirectory);
foreach (string currentFile in txtFiles)
if (currentFile.Contains("COV"))
var items1 = new LinkedList<string>();
using (var reader = new StreamReader(currentFile))
reader.ReadLine(); //read line 1
reader.ReadLine(); //read line 2
string line;
while ((line = reader.ReadLine()) != null)
items1.AddLast(line.Replace("\"", ""));
File.WriteAllLines(currentFile, items1);
else
var items2 = new LinkedList<string>();
using (var reader = new StreamReader(currentFile))
reader.ReadLine(); // skip one line
string line;
while ((line = reader.ReadLine()) != null)
items2.AddLast(line.Replace("\"", ""));
File.WriteAllLines(currentFile, items2);
catch (Exception ex)
Calling the Skip method on the already read string returned by the ReadLine() method won't help you at all here. By the time you call the Skip method the line has already been read from the file. You must call the ReadLine() method for a new line being read.
Hope that helps.

How do I activate AUTOMATIC superscripting for numbers / dates; e.g. 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, etc .... It used to do this in all PRE-5.0 versions of Pages; now, it is GONE from Pages 5.0, and I cannot find out where / how to activate it !!

Whilst I appreciate your responding - I do not think this helps with what I was enquiring (at least not without further explanations anyways).
I am aware of, and do use, the function - System Preferences > Keyboard > Text - for various replacements like (tm), (c), etc .... and also for fractions like 1/2, 1/4, 1/3.
However, my question was in relation to SUPERSCRIPTS for dates / numbers - namely, superscripting numerical suffixes for things like 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th,
So - please help - HOW do I set this up ? If indeed it is possible without System Preferences > Keyboard > Text ???

Hi All,
When trying to print PDF report I am getting question mark "?" for thai characters.

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

Thai characters not displaying correctly within App

Hi everyone,
I have a Adobe Flex Mobile app displays Thai text, however this is not displaying correctly. While developing the App on my Windows machine and testing using the Adobe Flash Builder mobile emulator, the font/characters look correct.
However when running the app on either the MAC Adobe Flash Builder emulator, the iPhone simulator or on an actual iPhone, the font/characters are incorrect.
First I thought that it was maybe an encoding issue (I am using locale properties files to replace text), so followed instructions at this website Flash Builder, Flex language bundles showing strange symbols. Not utf8 encoded.Sefol however this did not solve the issue.
Looking more closely at the text rendered, it looks as though all of the characters for each word are actually being rendered, but they are just being rendered in correctly. Where as if it was a encoding issue then it would be missing characters completely.
So if you look at the first character, in the correct version it is built up of 3 components. If you look at the second image, you can see that these three components are present but just not all appearing within one character.
Is this a font issue? or is it actually an encoding/rendering issue?
My code for testing this is just a simple label tag
<s:Label text="ชื่อผู้ใช้" fontFamily="Arial" fontSize="12" />
Many thanks.

Ok so after doing a bit more of an investigation into the Font being the issue and not the encoding type, it seems as though if I use a specific font which I know has the Thai characters, then they are displayed correctly.
I have embedded the font into the App using the code:
[Embed(source="../assets/Kinnari.ttf", mimeType="application/x-font", embedAsCFF="true", fontFamily="ThaiFont")]
private var ThaiFont:Class;
Then on my UI I have added the font:
<s:Label text="ชื่อผู้ใช้" fontFamily="Arial" fontSize="12" fontFamily="ThaiFont" />
I was able to find this font at a Hawaiian Educational website! Thai fonts :: Thai Language Program, University of Hawai'i, Manoa
Thanks @tooMuchTrouble for your help.

Problems displaying Thai characters in FTE components on Mac

I had originally posted a question here: http://forums.adobe.com/message/4027591, but was told that this is more of a flash runtime issue.
I am running into issues displaying Thai characters in Flex components that make use of the Flash Text Engine (FTE), specifically on Mac OSX 10.6.8 Snow Leopard.
Here's a blurb of my compiler font managers in flex-config.xml:
<flex-config>
        <target-player>10.2.0</target-player>
        
        <swf-version>11</swf-version>

          </locale>

              </managers>
                
            </fonts>
        </compiler>
    </flex-config>
...and another from flash-unicode-table.xml:
<language-range>
    <lang>Thai</lang>
    <range>U+0E01-0E5B</range>
</language-range>
My flex application originally had the following defined in its stylesheet:
    Application {
        fontSize: 12px;
        fontFamily: Arial;
        font-sharpness:0;
        font-anti-alias-type:advanced;
Thai characters render correctly in mx components such as TextField so far. However, FTE components such as TextLine show those crappy-looking boxes as a substitution. My initial guess was that somehow one of the compiler font managers declared in flex-config.xml was not finding the right system font to fallback to for Thai characters. So, I ensured the system font was installed by going to System Preferences > Language and Text > Edit List. Then I changed fontFamily to Arial, Ayuthaya. Still was seeing the boxes of evil.
Next I figured that perhaps the Arial font might be assigning a box for each unicode value corresponding to a Thai character. So it was effectively overriding the Ayuthaya system font. So I changed fontFamily once more to just Ayuthaya and this worked with one issue - Ayuthaya looks inherently different from Arial for non-thai characters.
Here's my question - is there a less invasive way to support Thai in FTE components such that the appearance of the text is closer to the Arial font? I would rather not embed a font because I'm constrained on SWF size.
Oh and I'm using flash player 10.3 right now.

OK, I asked the FTE team and got this reply: "Lucida Grande is CTS's fallback font for Thai. This font on OS 10.7 and 10.6 are not supporting Thai anymore. The version on 10.5 was supporting it." This means that it's our bug that we keep using Lucida Grande as fallback font even Apple dropped support Thai script with that font after 10.6. Unfortunately this bug was deferred from current development release (11.2) because of time constraint. If this support is critical for your business, can you open a bug in our public bugbase and ask as many vote as possible? In this way I may be able to convince internal team to fix this bug in next release.
Thank you for your feedback!

Export to pdf for thai characters get blank result.

Dear expert,
I have a problem, when export Sales Order that contain thai characters to PDF in SAP B1 2007A SP01 PL08, the page converted to pdf successfully for english characters, but not for Thai character. Thai characters did not display anything, just blank.
I did refer to note 339832 , and i guess this note is for R3 system, and I think for B1 also should use the same method when export to pdf.
So, anyone have any idea to enable Thai characters to export to pdf in SAP Business One?
Thanks in advance for any help.
Reagrds
Mat

Dear Carin,
Actually the purpose I want to export to pdf is because to attach wiith email that send direct from SAP.
My scenario here is:
- Open one Sales Order
- then click on Email icon to send email with attachment (I want to attach the SO). But, when I check the pdf before send the SO as attachment, i find out that the Thai characters missing/blank (as JimM said it is limitation in SAP for pdf function currently).
- the email sent successfully, but only the SO attachment is not correct because of Thai characters missing.
As per your suggestion, yes I can print as pdf first, then manually attach to email, but this involve too many manual steps just to send one SO via email.
Any way, thanks to all of you for reply.
JimM, thanks for the info and I will try to proceed to SAP development team for future use.

Printing Thai characters on Windows 7

Dear Experts,
We are developing our system on Windows 7 and we are testing on the printer with Thai characters from SAP(GUI710 Patch 17). On "Print Preview" everything looks fine but after printed there are some Thai characters (vowels) do not align correctly but it looks fine on Windows XP. We have tested on the new GUI720 also but the same result shown. Is there any way to solve this alignment problem?
Thank you in advance

IPad is slow in processing Thai characters

Hi
I'm Thai and I use my iPad a lot for reading and writing. The iPad slowness has been an issue for me for so long. At first, I thought it was some apps that heavily use resources of my iPad, so I tried closing all inactive apps or restarting which doesn't help. The problem occurs only occasionally, so I decided to be patient and live with it. However, lately I found that this slowness seems to related with processing or displaying a lot of Thai characters.
The first app that the behavior is obvious is iBooks. It takes a good amount of time (minutes) to load a Thai book with about 200 pages, and many seconds just to flip a page. I have another English book that longer than thousand pages and it opens almost instantly without waiting for flipping through pages.
Safari is the other app that shows the same behavior. It takes a lot of patience to read a page with a lot of Thai characters. It freezes and unresponsive when I scroll down the page or click the link so many times. I even used to think that my iPad really freezes, but it will come back if I just wait long enough. Never had this happened on English pages.
The last app that I found this occurs noticeably and I just tested it intentionally today is DayOne, a journal app. My journal writing (in Thai) became painful that I needed to switch to use my macbook instead because of typing lag. I used to blame the bluetooth keyboard and the app itself. Today I copied a pretty long English article into my journal entry and then continued to write after it. The lag was minimal and didn't affect my writing, so I switched to Thai. After only 5-6 lines, the typing lag came back to the point that I can't continue. I tried deleting only the Thai part and the problem solved!
This is very strange to me and please correct me if you think I reach a wrong conclusion, but this is what I've observed. If I remember correctly this issue has been occurring after upgrading to iOS 7, and it is an iPhone issue as well. It's just not obvious because I don't read and write this much on iPhone. If anybody have seen this and know the solution or have any suggestions please let me know. Thank you in advance.

Thai characters to PDF using smart forms

Hi All,
I have created a smartform which displays order details. The address contains thai characters. While viewing the preview, the characters are displayed correctly.
The OTF form of this print is converted into PDF using the function module CONVERT_OTF and sent as mail attachment.
The issue is in the PDF attachment, thai characters are converted to junk characters. Can anyone suggest how to overcome this?
FYI, for displaying thai characters, chinese font THANGSAN is used.
Thanks & regards,
Juli.

Hi,
There is no command like this. If you use device type PDFUC or SWINCF to create the spool before converting via RSTXPDFT4, then the PDF conversion will be unicode. See SAP note #999712. But you still need to upload true type fonts to support the Thai characters, this time via report RSTXPDF2UC as per note 999712 and the attached guide. The Adobe fonts don't support Thai so it is needed to embed Angsana new true type font into the PDF file to support Thai characters.

Aidan

Thai characters

Hi,
I use Indesign 7.0.3 on a mac running osx 10.6.7.
I have a text using thai characters in Lucida Grande font, the thai characters are drawn (and print) as empty boxes but if I copy-paste the thai characters they are ok :
khun phouying    คุณผู้หญิง (on the screen I have something like 'khun phouying    ▢▢▢▢▢▢')
The idml export is ok too :
            <CharacterStyleRange AppliedCharacterStyle="CharacterStyle/$ID/[No character style]">
                <Properties>
                    <AppliedFont type="string">Lucida Grande</AppliedFont>

                <Content>คุณผู้หญิ</Content>
            </CharacterStyleRange>
The Lucida Grande font is active, I can add glyphs and see them, but they do not copy-paste (some of them were between 'khun' and 'phouying' is the previous paste) and the idml export is as :
            <CharacterStyleRange AppliedCharacterStyle="CharacterStyle/$ID/[No character style]" OTFContextualAlternate="false">

What can I do to get the thai characters drawn correctly ?

Hi,
