Printing Arabic INDIC digits without implementing UNICODE

Hello experts,
I am woking in a non-unicode envorinment and am looking for the best advice to print arabic digits on a smartform. Even though the data is stored in the correct language (Arabic), the numeric data is represented in the logon language, which is english. We have the arabic code page loaded and it is an MDMP environment. So far, the only way to render the arabic numeric characters or glyph is to attach 'XEE' to the data which causes it to appear as the numberic with an apostrophe.
Can anyone suggest another hex character, (which would represent an invisible ascii code) to be used to print the arabic indic digits.
Any assistance would be appreciated.
Regards,
Jennifer

Hi Jennifer,
If you are using windows Regional Setting, goto control panel Regional options tab select language and then customize , in numbers tab choose arabic digits.
Also see Sap note 842877.

Printing Arabic Characters

Is it possible to print arabic and English numbers in the same
report (Eg. Passport No. H4523456) . Some how it is not printing
properly. (If it is only number without any alphabet , changing
the direction displays the number in arabic correctly.)
Database is storing the characters in English.
Thanks.
Datebase Character Set : AR8ISO8859P6
NLS_LANG : AR8MSWIN1256

Hello,
It is possible, but set NLS_LANG=UTF8
which is UNICODE, however if your database is not in Unicode you are not able to display both i.e. English and Arabic, why?
Unicode has a representation for each language character and has a position, no matter what language, Japanese, Chinese.
Contact Oracle Support, they can give you an answer to your request.

How to print the report directly without previewing (report viewer) using c# windows application

Hi,
Currently, we are using crystal report to all of our reporting applications, but since I/users have encountered some issues about CR's speed to load only a simple report, maybe it is now time for us to adopt a new reporting environment in which I think SSRS
can fill this problem.
To start with, I have here a sample code, that uses the crystal report to print the report directly without previewing:
csCashInvoiceCal csCashCal; --Crystal report name .rpt
dsCsReceipt dsCs; --created dataset
DataTable u;
DataRow s;
private System.Drawing.Printing.PrintDocument printDocument1;
private System.Windows.Forms.PrintDialog printDialog1;
ParameterValues paramValue;
ParameterDiscreteValue discreteValue;
ParameterFieldDefinition fieldDefinition;
private void btnPrint_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
this.Cursor = Cursors.WaitCursor;
loadReceipt2();
print2();
csCashCal.Close();
this.Cursor = Cursors.Default;
private void loadReceipt2()
dsCs = new dsCsReceipt(); --created dataset
u = dsCs.Tables.Add("DtCsReceipt");
u.Columns.Add("Qty", Type.GetType("System.String"));
u.Columns.Add("UOM", Type.GetType("System.String"));
u.Columns.Add("Description", Type.GetType("System.String"));
u.Columns.Add("UnitPrice", Type.GetType("System.String"));
u.Columns.Add("Discount", Type.GetType("System.String"));
u.Columns.Add("Amount", Type.GetType("System.String"));
try
for (int i = 0; i < dgvDesc.Rows.Count - 1; i++)
s = u.NewRow(); double.TryParse(dgvDesc.Rows[i].Cells[Discount2.Name].Value.ToString(), out discount);
s["Qty"] = double.Parse(dgvDesc.Rows[i].Cells[Qty.Name].Value.ToString());
s["UOM"] = dgvDesc.Rows[i].Cells[Uom2.Name].Value.ToString();
s["Description"] = invcode + dgvDesc.Rows[i].Cells[Description.Name].Value.ToString();
s["UnitPrice"] = dgvDesc.Rows[i].Cells[UnitPrice.Name].Value.ToString();
if (discount != 0)
s["Discount"] = "(" + string.Format("{0:0.##}", discount) + "%)";
else
s["Discount"] = "";
s["Amount"] = dgvDesc.Rows[i].Cells[Amount2.Name].Value.ToString();
u.Rows.Add(s);
catch (Exception) { }
csCashCal = new csCashInvoiceCal();
csCashCal.SetDataSource(dsCs.Tables[1]);
//csCashCal.Refresh();
loadParameter2();
private void loadParameter2()
ParameterFieldDefinitions paramFieldDefinitions;
paramValue = new ParameterValues();
discreteValue = new ParameterDiscreteValue();
paramFieldDefinitions = csCashCal.DataDefinition.ParameterFields;
discreteValue.Value = date;
fieldDefinition = paramFieldDefinitions["Date"];
commonParam();
discreteValue.Value = txtcsno.Text;
fieldDefinition = paramFieldDefinitions["InvoiceNo"];
commonParam();
discreteValue.Value = txtNameTo.Text;
fieldDefinition = paramFieldDefinitions["CustomerName"];
commonParam();
discreteValue.Value = txtAdd.Text;
fieldDefinition = paramFieldDefinitions["CustomerAddress"];
commonParam();
------other parameters----
private void commonParam()
paramValue.Clear();
paramValue.Add(discreteValue);
fieldDefinition.ApplyCurrentValues(paramValue);
private void print2()
using (printDocument1 = new System.Drawing.Printing.PrintDocument())
using (this.printDialog1 = new PrintDialog())
//this.printDialog1.UseEXDialog = true;
this.printDialog1.Document = this.printDocument1;
DialogResult dr = this.printDialog1.ShowDialog();
if (dr == DialogResult.OK)
int nCopy = this.printDocument1.PrinterSettings.Copies;
int sPage = this.printDocument1.PrinterSettings.FromPage;
int ePage = this.printDocument1.PrinterSettings.ToPage;
string PrinterName = this.printDocument1.PrinterSettings.PrinterName;
try
csCashCal.PrintOptions.PrinterName = PrinterName;
csCashCal.PrintToPrinter(nCopy, false, sPage, ePage);
printcount++;
//saveCountPrint();
catch (Exception err)
MessageBox.Show(err.ToString());
This is only a simple sales receipt application that uses dgv and textboxes to push its data to dataset to the crystal report, a simple one but there are instances that it is very slow.
But I'm having trouble implementing this using SSRS, since I'm only new to this one, wherein I created the report using report wizard, with two button options inside the form for print preview or direct print selection. Actually, it is very easy to implement
with print preview because it uses reportviewer. My problem is that how can I print the report directly without using a reportviewer?
So here is my code so far which I don't know what's next:
private void button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
this.Cursor = Cursors.WaitCursor;
loadReceipt3();
//print3();
this.Cursor = Cursors.Default;
ReportParameter[] parameter = new ReportParameter[11];
private void loadParameter3()
parameter[0] = new ReportParameter("InvoiceNo", txtcsno.Text);
parameter[1] = new ReportParameter("Date", date);
parameter[2] = new ReportParameter("CustomerTin", txtTin.Text);
parameter[3] = new ReportParameter("CustomerName", txtNameTo.Text);
parameter[4] = new ReportParameter("CustomerAddress", txtAdd.Text);
parameter[5] = new ReportParameter("Agent", agent);
parameter[6] = new ReportParameter("Discount", "Discount: ");
parameter[7] = new ReportParameter("TotalDiscount", lblDiscount.Text + "%");
parameter[8] = new ReportParameter("TotalSales", rdtotal);
parameter[9] = new ReportParameter("Tax", rdtax);
parameter[10] = new ReportParameter("TotalAmount", rdnet);
private void loadReceipt3()
DataSet dsrs = new DataSet();
DataTable dtrs = new DataTable();
DataRow drs;
dtrs.Columns.Add("Qty", Type.GetType("System.String"));
dtrs.Columns.Add("UOM", Type.GetType("System.String"));
dtrs.Columns.Add("Description", Type.GetType("System.String"));
dtrs.Columns.Add("UnitPrice", Type.GetType("System.String"));
dtrs.Columns.Add("Discount", Type.GetType("System.String"));
dtrs.Columns.Add("Amount", Type.GetType("System.String"));
try
for (int i = 0; i < dgvDesc.Rows.Count - 1; i++)
drs = dtrs.NewRow();
drs["Qty"] = double.Parse(dgvDesc.Rows[i].Cells[Qty.Name].Value.ToString());
drs["UOM"] = dgvDesc.Rows[i].Cells[Uom2.Name].Value.ToString();
drs["Description"] = invcode + dgvDesc.Rows[i].Cells[Description.Name].Value.ToString();
drs["UnitPrice"] = dgvDesc.Rows[i].Cells[UnitPrice.Name].Value.ToString();
if (discount != 0)
drs["Discount"] = "(" + string.Format("{0:0.##}", discount) + "%)";
else
drs["Discount"] = "";
drs["Amount"] = dgvDesc.Rows[i].Cells[Amount2.Name].Value.ToString();
dtrs.Rows.Add(s);
catch (Exception) { }
int addtlRow = 7;
if (addtlRow > (count - 1))
addtlRow = addtlRow - (count - 1);
for (int i = 0; i < addtlRow; i++)
dtrs.Rows.Add();
loadParameter3();
LocalReport localreport = new LocalReport();
localreport.SetParameters(parameter);
localreport.DataSources.Clear();
localreport.DataSources.Add(new ReportDataSource("dsSalesReceiptSsrs", dtrs));
localreport.Refresh();
//what's next....
So what's next after local..refresh()? Actually, I have googled a lot but I didn't found the exact solution that I'm looking for which confuses me a lot.
Anyway I'm using VS 2010 with sql server 2012 express.
You're help will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Hardz

After some further studies with ReportViewer controls and with the use of this tutorial @ : http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms252091.aspx, which helps me a lot on how to print a report without using a report viewer, I found out what is missing

if (dr == DialogResult.OK)
if (!printDoc.PrinterSettings.IsValid)
throw new Exception("Error: cannot find the default printer.");
else
printDoc.PrintPage += new PrintPageEventHandler(PrintPage);
m_currentPageIndex = 0;
printDoc.Print();
Dispose();
public void Dispose()
if (m_streams != null)
foreach (Stream stream in m_streams)
stream.Close();
m_streams = null;
private Stream CreateStream(string name, string fileNameExtension, Encoding encoding, string mimeType, bool willSeek)

Metafile(m_streams[m_currentPageIndex]);
// Adjust rectangular area with printer margins.

How to print Arabic text along with the English in smartform ( ECC6 version

Hi All,
our is ECC6 version, Non unicode, ABAP stack ( not dual stack )
is it possible to print in Arabic language in the above version ?
if yes, then please let me know how to print Arabic text and English text in the same smartfrom.
i tried in the following procedures :
1) i created standard text (SO10) in arabic language.
i called in the smartform ( include text - i )
langage AR
but system throws error message saying, required language is not installed.
2) if i use READ_TEXT function module.
text getting printed in diff format but not in arabic.
waiting for your replies..

ECC6 and Non-Unicode? I think you'll need multiple code pages, I doubt there's a mixed Arabic/Latin1 available. And I don't think SAP supports new MDMP systems any more. If you need to support multiple languages you really need to go Unicode. It's probably easier to do the Unicode conversion than to try to support multiple code pages and you have to make the switch eventually.

Printing Arabic(Hindi) numbers in oracle Report.

Hi,
I would like to print Arabic(Hindi) numbers in the reports eg:*1234567890*
on metalink i found that i need to set
REPORTS_ARABIC_NUMERAL=HINDI
REPORTS_BIDI_ALGORITHM=UNICODE
in reports.sh which i already set and restarted the CM. But did not work then i found i was using pasta for this printer so i set numbers=Hindi in pasta.cfg file.
Still it is showing Arabic numbers not Hinid as explained above.
Kindly suggest the solution for this task.
Thanks.

Hi,
I think you did not get i meant. i have a oracle report (Concurrent Program)which shows employee id number.
-> the employee id is stored in Arabic(English) format : 123435
->We would like this number to be shown as Hindi(Middle east number) format.
When we login either arabic login or english login:
--> Go to request --> submit request --> running--> completed succesfully- View output
Here is the output with some arabic text and this number.
The arabic text is apperiang ok but the number is apperiang in english format.
Note: I am using pasta for this report to be printed.
Kindly suggest.

Modify print price indicator in PO using BBP_CREATE_PO_BACK

I want to add a new customer field in Basic Data section of the Shopping Cart screen in SRM 4.0. This new user-defined field will determine whether or not to print price in the PO printout.
Currently this is controlled by the Print Price indicator (BBP_BAPIMEPOITEM-PRNT_PRICE) in ME23N.
I have appended a new user-defined field (Do not print price checkbox) in the structure INCL_EEW_PD_ITEM_CSF_SC in the front-end system. Then i used the implementation BBP_CUF_BADI_2 to add this new field in the Shopping Cart screen.
From what i understand, i have to pass the value entered in the Shopping Cart screen (in this case, its whether the checkbox is checked or not) to modify the field PRNT_PRICE in the backend PO using BAdI implementation BBP_CREATE_PO_BACK (method: FILL_PO_CREATE1_INTERFACE).
My question is how exactly do i do that? What do i code in the BAdI for it to pass data correctly back to the PO in the backend system?

Hi,
Pls see the foll related threads:

What is happening to Firefox? So user unfriendly since you changed to Yahoo. I can't print anything from web without first saving to documents. Boo!

For the first time - today i tried to print a map search. Was forced to "save" to documents from which it could be printed. Next needed something from another web site - same story. WHY are you doing this to me? All I want to do is a simple print from the web without getting a big dose of heartburn. Where is my Nexium? I need to take a dozen right now.
Now to go unclutter my documents.

hello, you may have an issue with adware/malware related on your pc (this won't have anything to do with the impending search engine change, which didn't happen yet). please perform all these steps:
# [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems|reset firefox]] (this will keep your bookmarks and passwords)
# afterwards go to the firefox menu ≡ > addons > extensions and in case there are still extensions listed there, disable them.
# finally run a full scan of your system with different security tools like the [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free free version of malwarebytes] and [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ adwcleaner] to make sure that adware isn't present in other places of your system as well.

Printing in Month View WITHOUT time showing. Help Me!

I need to print a monthly calendar WITHOUT the start time for events showing on my printout. I've gone to preferences and de-selected the "show time in month view" box, but although times do not appear on the month view on my computer, they pop up again in print preview and when printed. How do I get rid of the darn things?
Please help!!!! Thanks, Luana.

musetta24,
Sorry to see that no one replied to your post back in October.
Normally when I notice that someone posted for the first time in Apple Discussions, I open my reply with - "Welcome to Apple Discussions." With my apologies for the lack of responses, please accept a belated welcome and reply to your question.
Widowwmaker,
iCal will not print without displaying the times.
If you are willing to use the Preview application, you could take a screen shot of your preferred iCal window, and print using the Preview print menu.

When printing on a digital press, why are the colors different between INDD & PSD?

I've created the exact same CMYK mix in both InDesign and Photoshop. When printed on a digital press they are not the same color. Any ideas how this can be fixed/solved?

Sounds like the RIP treats raster and vector objects differently. see InDesignSecrets » Blog Archive » Eliminating YDB (Yucky Discolored Box) Syndrome for a discussion of how this affects transparency interactions, and how to work around it. I suspect you can cure it by adding transparency to the master page and using the custom flattener method.
