PDF Report with BLOB image

I have a PDF report produced from APEX using BI Publisher. I also have up to 4 images stored in BLOB fields that I would like to include in the PDF report. I found a reference for how to do this with APEX 3.1 (using a blob2clobase64 function), however I am using APEX 3.0 and this does not seem to work with this version. Does anyone have an example of how I can achieve this with APEX 3.0 and BI Publisher? Thanks, Karen.

  • Oracle Reports - Unable to generate report with colored image in bitmap mod

    Hi,
    I am using Oracle reports 6i.
    I am generating a post script[.ps] file using bitmap mode.
    The layout contains an image. The image is stored in oracle database which is colored image.
    But when the report is generated same is being generated with gray color.
    Could any one advise on resolving this issue? The objective is to generate the report with colored image and not gray or black&white

    What kind of images do you have? Reports only supports a few formats, e.g. JFIF. So, if you have JPG images with EXIF meta information in the header, you have to remove those first.
    when the report is generated same is being generated with gray color.What happens if you sent the output directly to the printer?
    And what happens if you create a PDF file instead of Postscript?

    Have you ever tried using getMapAsXML or getMapImageURL methods of MVMapView object?

  • Get Windows message "Terminate 5-1" after printing pdf reports with Orarrp

    Hi,
    I get error message "Terminate 5-1" on clients machine after pdf report is printed with Orarrp.
    The clients is Windows XP with acrobat reader 5.
    I test on acrobat reader 6 and get the same result.
    This occur for all pdf reports and all clients.
    However this message just shows when perform printing, if I cancel printing from print dialog box then this message does not show.
    How can I avoid this message?
    Thanks in advance

    ===================
    Hi,
    I have same error message(Message Title: TerminateProcess Value; Message Body: 5-1) showing up when using Orarrp to print directly to printer on WEB using Oracle Forms. On my pc it shows when I have adobe acrobat reader opened up already and on others it may shows even if adobe acrobat is not already opened. However document gets printed but this is very annoying for the user to see this message.
    Client Environments:
    1. Windows XP, HP LaserJet 5P and HP LaserJet 4100 Series PCL, Adobe Acrobat 6.0
    2. Windows 2000 Professional, HP LaserJet 4000 Series PCL, Adobe Acrobat 5.0 and 6.0
    Thanks
    Kulwinder Sidhu

    Hi Kulwinder,
    We are getting this problem whenever we go through the following steps:
    - Generate a PDF report without an ORARRP file extension on a dedicated reports server. Preview the report by opening in Adobe Reader using WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT.
    - Generate a PDF report with a ORARRP file extension of rrpa on a dedicated reports server. Directly print the report without a print dialog box using WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT to invoke ORARRP.
    After printing the Terminate Process 5-1 message appears and Adobe is left running. If the first step is missed out then printing occurs without error and Adobe closes automatically.
    Please could you give more information on how you solved the problem. I am using Windows XP and Adobe 7.
    Thanks,
    Pete

  • PDF report with bar code

    Hello.
    I am creating a PDF report using the Oracle Reports 6i running on Oracle Concurrent Manager.
    The PDF report has a bar code.
    The report finish with success but it is visualized without the bar code.
    Into the output report the bar code name is small font (mw6code39mt) always.
    I can visualize the output report when I manually alter the bar code name from small font to large font (MW6 Code39MT) only. I do it in my Unix server using the text editor.
    The bar code name installed in my PC is large font (MW6 Code39MT)
    I am experiencing problem when visualizing or printing the output report.
    Has somebody experience about it or some idea about how can I to configure the Unix server or Oracle to solve the problem?
    Thank you.
    Edson

    Hi Julie,
    Sorry my english.
    I will try to explain in more details the problem.
    I have identified that the bar code name into the PDF output is lowercase (mw6code39mt).
    I only visualize or print the PDF output with the bar code when I manually alter that bar code name from lowercase to uppercase (MW6Code39MT).
    I do that in my Unix server using the vi editor.
    Please, see what I need to alter in the PDF output file on Unix server:
    <</Type /Font
    /Name /F1
    /Subtype /Type1
    /Encoding /WinAnsiEncoding
    /BaseFont /mw6code39mt ====> alter to MW6Code39MT
    /FirstChar 24
    /LastChar 255
    /Widths 9 0 R
    /FontDescriptor 10 0 R
    >>
    endobj
    Thank you.

  • How can I programatically identify PDF files with embedded images?

    Our company has 27,266,949 .PDF files that we're planning to compress in order to save server space.
    We don't want to compress any of the .PDF files that have embedded images as to not alter the image's state.
    How can we programatically create a list to exclude from the compression process?

    Ah, see told you we were new to this and no, my taxs already have enough digits to the balance.
    Ok, so based on that, we should be able to use the preflighting tool to identify the PDF’s with images, factor them out, and then continue with lossless compression on the remaining balance.
    That will give us the compression we need to save space, but also allow us to stand in the court of law (if the scenario was to ever occur) and proclaim that none of our medical images have ever been altered by compression.
    Sound like a reasonable plan?

  • PDF annotation with link, image doesn't show, only in print or Google Chrome, not Adobe Reader main

    We are creating PDF files with annotations, we are using the O2 Solutions PDF Library for C#. We used to create PDFStampAnnotations, but now we want to make the images clickable, to navigate to the URL belonging to the image.
    Therefore, we are now using PDFLinkAnnotations, with a PDFImageAppearance.
    We set the flags of the annotation to Print.
    However, the annotation won't show in the PDF in Adobe Reader. It does show in the Google Chrome inline PDF viewer.
    It also shows in the print preview window in Adobe Reader.
    But it does not show in the normal view in Adobe Reader. What we do see is, when hovering over the rectangle that should contain our image, our mouse cursor becomes a hand and a tooltip with the link is displayed. If we click, everything works as expected. But we don't see an image!
    What can we do about this? This is really annoying, as I don't have a clue why it won't work. Actually, to me, this looks like a bug in Adobe Reader?

    Thank  you for your reply.
    Indeed, I tried saving a PDF that had the "default appearance", it shows exactly the same. So it looks like it "can't" show the image.
    However, of course, I do want the image to be shown. How can I achieve this? How can I tell Adobe Reader (and other PDF viewers) I really really realllyyyyy want to see that image there? I believe I'm not doing anything really exotic, right? There must have been tons of other people that wanted to do the same thing, I guess?
                        var annotation = new PDFLinkAnnotation
                                    Action = new PDFUriAction(this.GetCodeUrl(code)),
                                    Contents = AnnotationIdentifier,
                                    Appearance = new PDFImageAppearance(bitmapImage),

  • PDF Report with Korean font work fine in 9iDS but not in 9iAS

    Hi,
    I am using Oracle 9i Application Server 9.0.2.0.0, When i try to run the report using Korean font The pdf report not showing the korean font correctly.
    I tried the same in 9ids , which is working properly. I have done exactly the same setting in 9ias, but it is not working.
    The Oracle ias report service dialog shows version 9.0.2.0.3
    My 9ias settings
    NLS_LANG = AMERICAN_AMERICA.KO16KSC5601
    In uifont.ali the settings are
    [ PDF ]
    .....ZHT16BIG5 = "MSungStd-Light-Acro"
    .....ZHS16CGB231280 = "STSongStd-Light-Acro"
    .....KO16KSC5601 ="HYSMyeongJoStd-Medium-Acro"
    Installed the Korean font(HYSMyeongJoStd-Medium-Acro) from Adobe site
    the font file HYSMyeongJoStd-Medium-Acro exist in C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 5.0\Resource\CIDFont
    also installed the asian Suit 2000(Union Way) on the ias server.
    I have checked the Smoothing display option also in Acrobat 5. The Document font is showing
    Origial font = HYSMyeongJoStd-Medium-Acro type=type1 (CID) Encoding=KSC-EUC-H
    Actual font = HYSMyeongJoStd-Medium-Acro type=type1 (CID)
    Anyone please let me know do i need to do any other changes or i need to apply any patch . Please reply, Thanks in advance
    with Regards
    Rohit.

    Hi Navneet,
    Thanks for the immediate reply.
    As such there is no change in both the report servers , same output in win2000 and win2003. I am generating the rep from 9ids for both 9ids and 9ias, and i am using font UWKMJF which is korean charecter support, but 9ias is generating some junk charecters with spacing , 9ids is working fine.
    The PDf Document font is showing
    Origial font = HYSMyeongJoStd-Medium-Acro type=type1 (CID) Encoding=KSC-EUC-H
    Actual font = HYSMyeongJoStd-Medium-Acro type=type1 (CID)
    which is same as 9ids, but the data displaying in the pdf are not proper.
    As you mentioned about the patch, which patch i have to apply. can you please also mention the patch numbers.
    Please help me.
    Thanks and Regards
