PDF reports - Application globalization

Hi,
I've my application translated into 4 languages (and it will be more). Now I have some PDF reports (at the moment 10, but will also be more), that should also be translated (heading, title etc). When using BI Publisher I can upload xliff-files holding the translation values. Is something like this also possbile with ApEx?
The only way at the moment I can imagine, is to create a report layout for every language with corresponding report query. But when I have 10 reports and need 4 languages I must create 40 report layouts and queries, what's a little bit pedestrian.
Any hints or ideas ...?
Thanks
chrissy

I am having the same problem.
Is there a way in APEX to switch BI Publisher rtf templetes for the same report query accoringly to language?

Generate multiple Oracle Applications pdf reports in one batch

hi,
we are working in oracle applications 11i.
we have a custom salary slip report that is built with Oracle Reports Builder and run as a PDF report in Oracle HRMS.
I need to find a solution to generate the reports/pdf files of all employees in one run/click, name each output file according to employee number and month in the report, save them all in a folder.
How can I do this from either, reports builder, or Oracle applications?
Regrads,

Hi,
I need to find a solution to generate the reports/pdf files of all employees in one run/clickYou can write a PL/SQL program which will dynamically submit the concurrent request for the report multiple times with different parameters. You will need to run the calling PL/SQL program only once.
name each output file according to employee number and month in the reportThe output files generated are named according to Oracle EBS convention(like o<req_id>.out). I do not know of any way by which the output file names can be changed. You can however generate the report title dynamically, depending on the input parameter.
save them all in a folderOutput files are generally stored in $APPLCSF/$APPLOUT. This location can be changed but it will affect all concurrent programs and not just your report.

Problems with PDF report generation on WEB application

Hi friends.
I have the following problem.
I heve many reports running on a client/server system. But we decide to move one by one, the menu options of the system to the WEB, using iAS. Most of the reports works just fine, but some of them works wrong.
But I am not talking about the data or something like that, I am talking about the layout format. All of them out a grey rectangle in all the pages of the PDF reports. The report doesn't have any color inside, but when we move the file, to the UNIX server and test it, it is generated not in a white normal report but grey and white colors.
anyone have an idea what is it happend?
thank you folks....
abdel.

hi shivanjali..
the problem may be due to your local system settings..
try this..
open internet explorer.-> click on tools menu-> click on internet options-> select connections tab-> press lan settings-> uncheck the proxy address if you have any and press ok....
now try your web report.. hope it will help your concern..

Printing PDF reports in application express

Hi everyone,
I am a newbie to APEX.can anyone post some links or material regarding the PDF reports in APEX.
Thank u

This is where I started. I then read up on the information on BI Publisher at http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/bi/enterprise-edition.html .
Between the 2 sites, I think you will have everything you need.

Report Logo - Displays on HTML, not on PDF report

Hello once again Gurus.
We have a system environment setup where we have BI Publisher Enterprise and Apex 3.1.2 talking together to create PDF reports on a Oracle 10g database (R2 I think, I'm uncertain). As part of a business requirement, depending on what project you are looking at within our apex application, when printing a report you see a logo specific to the project. We have already developed this using a RTF template with a dummy image embedded, and +url:{concat(.//URL,.//PROJECT_ID)}+ in the Alternative Text field of the Web tab of the Format Picture dialogue.
This worked fine when using the RTF templates as Report Layouts within Apex and as templates within a BI Publisher report.
However, now logos aren't appearing.
I am not sure if we have upgraded the version of BI Publisher, but we are running Apex 3.1.2.00.02 on Dev and Apex 3.1.1.00.09 on test and prod, however none of these environments are outputting logos in the PDF reports.
Curiously, if I go into the BI Publisher interface and ask for the report to be outputted as HTML, the image shows. Running the HTML version of the report from Apex also shows the logo -- but the logo isn't showing in the PDF reports.
As I continue trouble shooting, any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Edit: We are on BIP 10.1.3.2

If anyone could give us any insight on this, it would be appriciated.
I'm unsure if its a permissions problem with the PDF seeing the image, or something related to server setup. We currently have a redirect in place to production that doesn't include the :7777 in the URL, and for some reason, if the G_URL for the image is changed to this portless URL, the image is embedded. However, this redirect was in place for another application, and will soon be locked down, so is not available for a long term solution to this problem

Error only in PDF report generation not HTML

The same report exports fine in HTML. This only happens when exporting a PDF report:
com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.lib.ReportSDKException: 26---- Error code:-2147467259 Error code name:failed
The application was developed by our developer team and it is hosted in a Windows Server 2008 R2.
Does someone had the same problem ?
Thank you.

We solved but not so sure about the cause.
It had something to do with character encoding in PDF reports.
Thank you for all that read the question.

Control the page height and page width of pdf report using pasta_pdf.cfg

Hi All,
I've followed the note: 338990.1 (how to print publisher PDF reports via the concurrent manager) in metalink to print a PDF REPORT. Everything work fine except the page height and page width is used as default (8X11). Is there anyway that i can custom page height and page width size such as: legal (8.5X14).
current set up in pasta_pdf.cfg
[DEFAULT]
%% ============== Preprocessing Command ==================== %%
% Pasta can use a preprocessing command to invoke any executable
% that supports an input file and an output file (a filter program).
% You can use redirection. Pasta will invoke the filter program
% to preprocess the Pasta output before passing it to the printing
% command. By using the preprocess option, you can generate output
% formats other than the formats Pasta currently supports. For
% example, you can generate PCL output.
% You can use {infile} and {outfile} in this option.
% {infile} is the output file generated by Pasta. You can use
% it as input for the preprocessing command. It is a temporary
% file and will be deleted after being passed to the
% preprocessing command. {outfile} is the output file generated
% by the preprocessing command. Pasta names it temporarily and
% it will be deleted after being passed to the printing command.
% If you want to keep it, you can name it by using the '-o'
% command line option. Pasta will copy {outfile} to the file you
% specify.
% Preprocess for PDF output
% This is an example for PDF output to print.
; Xpdf
preprocess=/usr/local/bin/pdftops {infile} {outfile}
; Ghost Script
; preprocess=pdf2ps {infile} {outfile}
; Acrobat
; preprocess=acroread -toPostScript -pairs {infile} {outfile}
%% ============== Printing Command ========================= %%
% You can specify the printing command and options you want
% to use to print your report. Pasta will pass the final output
% to this command. {printername} will be replaced by the
% actual printer name passed through the command line option
% (-pn), so in most cases you don't have to change these
% options.
% for UNIX platform
printCommand=lp -c -d{printername}
% for Windows platform
ntPrintCommand=print /D:{printername}
%% ============== Error Log File =========================== %%
% This tells Pasta to create a log file. The default error
% output is stderr.

NOTE: pasta version 3.0.4

i think that can be down from the printing direver/styles/prt files when you added the printer at your apps system check the follwoign for more info.

Dynamic Images in PDF Report

Hi,
I want to create Badges from employee table (ID, NAME, JOB_TITLE, PHOTO). I downloaded and installed a demo application "USING DYNAMIC IMAGES IN PDF REPORT". It works fine with smale images < 20K. I'm getting the following error for images > 20K :
"ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: raw variable length too long"
it seems like a buffer problem.
could you pls help to solve this problem
Thanks,
Ribhi

Hi Carsten
That was exactly* I was looking for. Maybe I should Google more in German ;-)
The main problem was that I defined my image outside the first repeating group (that doesn't repeat, it's always just one object) - the first group is followed by 7 more.
Just like the "Name" (that's positioned outside the group in the document header), I positioned the image above the table representing the group.
Doing that, the "Name" is filled correctly, the Image only when the Output Format is Excel or HTML - not Word or PDF ... makes no sense but that's tje way it is.
After moving the image inside the group....it works great!
(One more thing...the image size is fixed to the image you use as "dummy". Is there any way to make that more flexible, because now some scaling happens...)???
@Trent: That was the way we initially did it, but when the size of the row exceeds 32K...you know what happens.. And even with a small image the 32K limit is hit easily
The way I use it now (very similar to Carsten's description) there is no limit....
Thank you all!

Pdf reports on webtoGo ? urgent plz

Hi ,
I developed a webtogo offline application and successfully generated the jasper pdf reports on local jdeveloper.Now i am publishing the same on olite server.
The pdf report first save in /report folder and then open on popup in a new window(works fine on local machine with jdev).
Now i have a doubt if the same works on server too?
Does my code works or not?

We have developed a Java EE application using Crystal Server 11.0 (Copyright © 2004 Business Objects) to generate PDF reports. All working well for the past few years on IE6 and IE7 under Windows XP Pro until we started to upgrade to Windows 7 and IE9.
When trying to run the reports it will have the error message as follow:
File does not begin with '%PDF-%'.

I also tested on Chrome and Firefox 4 under Windows XP and it got the same error message. It seems like the PDF generated by the aged Crystal Server have some issues with the latest browsers.
Thanks.

Hi Ted, thank you for your response, but the previous post is actually the result of IE6, which is working fine. I confused myself alone the way.
Here is the result of Chrome. It says "Information is needed before this report can be processed". The Content-Type is PDF, but the browser is looking for something before accepting this PDF file. The PDF file itself is not in the response stream.
Thanks.
