Printing out a character set

The old ALDUS PageMaker (circa 1992) used to have a file that printed out all the characters in a font - you merely changed the font to see all the characters; i.e., times roman showed all the characters in that font, changing to symbol showed all the characters in the symbol font. It listed 255 characters available. It was called Character Set Publication. I cannot find this file in any CS2-5 programs. And the "help" is worthless. Anybody have one of these or know where it is kept in the program? I probably won't be calling up this "Adobe Community Help" again, so please email me at [email address deleted by host] - and Thanks!

Simply use a font manager. They all have options to print font sets.

Hi,
Check the OSS note 776507 which talks about print preview for
characters in Chinese language and print of ## characters during printing Asian languages.
Please go through the note , as per section " Note on SAPscript/SmartForms Print Preview "
we need to use device type CNHPLJ4 for printing Chinese character set.

Can I user Dot Matrix Printer under UTF8 character set ?

Hi,
We are using UTF8 character set. Somebody told me that I can only use the postscript printer. Is it necessary to set up a report server if I need to print on dot-matrix printer? Any workaround solution?
Thanks and regards
Toby

Your printer emulation and the SAP device type for the output device must match.
For example, if you use IBM Proprinter emulation, then use device type IBM4232.
If you use Epson emulation, then you may have a look at note 1135053.
What are your emulation and device type?

Incorrect Character Print out

I have through eprint to print out Chinese character on the Tiltle and content, but the print out was dispalyed some of unexpected symbols. And after I logon to eprint website, the Chinese character title can be display correctly, Could you help me to solve it? Thanks
Printer MODEL:MFP1536-DNF

Hi,
Most likely due to fonts. Your machine may have those fonts therefore you can see properly BUT the ePrint may not. My suggestion: change to another font and try again.

Utl_file and character sets

hello,
we are using AL32UTF8 character set in our database, I have a PL/SQL routine reading a csv file with utl_file into the database, Client using UTF-8 (Toad). When I have a UTF-8 csv file, everything works fine. But I want to be able to read ANSI aswell. Is there a way to read ANSI files aswell with utl_file ?
ps: I used CONVERT(v_line, 'UTF8', 'WE8MSWIN1252') and it worked. Is there a way I can read out the character set of the csv file with PL/SQL, so I dont need to use a parameter ?

Too bad your Oracle installation doesn't have a version number or use any DDL so we would know what you are doing.
Are you using GET_LINE or GET_LINE_NCHAR or something else.

Transport tablespaces between databases with different character sets

Hi everyone:
I have two 10R2 databases on the same hp-ux 64bit server, 1st one with NLS_CHARACTERSET=US7ASCII, 2nd one with
NLS_CHARACTERSET=AL32UTF8.
NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET on both databases is AL16UTF16.
Can I transfer tablespaces from the 1st one to the 2nd. The data could be in English, French & Spanish.
If not what are my options?
Thanks in advance.

First off, if you are storing French and Spanish data in database 1 where the character set is US7ASCII, you've got some serious problems. US7ASCII doesn't support non-English characters (accents, tildes, etc). If you're storing data this way, you've introduced data corruption that you'd have to resolve before copying the data data over to another machine.
Second, technically, the source and target character set have to be identical. Since US7ASCII is a strict binary superset of AL32UTF8, you could theoretically transport a US7ASCII tablespace to an AL32UTF8 database. In your case, though, since the data is not really US7ASCII, you'd end up with corruption.
Any of the Oracle built-in replication options is going to require that you resolve the corruption issue. Assuming that you can figure out what character set the source database really is, you could potentially dump the data to flat files (taking care not to allow character set conversion to take place) and SQL*Loader them into the destination system by identifying the proper character set in your control file. That's obviously going to be a rather laborious process, though.

German character set issues on Solaris

Hi,
I am facing an issue with German character settings with my Java application on a solaris box.
When I run my application on the box, and I pass an input file with German special characters they get converted as ?. However, other normal English characters are formed properly.
When I run the same application on another Solaris box with a different JRE, the German characters are formed properly.
I understand that there is a difference in the archiecture between the 2 boxes ie.e
64 bit SPARC machine v/s 32 bit x86 machine
the JRE
1.4.2_03(64bit) v/s 1.4.1_01
I am tryinbg to evaludate further differences between the 2 environments to pinpoint the issue, and get this resolved on the 1st box.
Can anyone provide me any inputs?
Lavin

When you read the file, please point out what character set using. For example:
FileInputStream fstream = new FileInputStream(url.getFile());
DataInputStream in = new DataInputStream(fstream);
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(in, Charset.forName("ISO-8859-1")));
br.readLine();
This link possibly can help you.

In setting up my ICal calendar I have specific times (as new events) that I want to be included in the print out. This doesn't happen.

In setting up my ICAL calendar I have specific times (as new events) for each day. When it prints out the time does not show up (rather its a bar). I would like the time for each appointment to print out. How do I do this?

These are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
Method 1
Backup the library with this User Tip.
Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
Method 2
Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload.
I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
Note if you have failed to move contacts and calendar items across you should create one dummy entry of each in your new profile and iTunes should merge the existing data from the device.
If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See make a split library portable.
Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library or a backup then then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data.

How can I set the text feild in a form to print out the entire feild?

Right now it's only printing out what shows in the box, I want the box to expand when printed and show all the text entered in the field, how can I set it to do that?

I think that the font size has to be set in the form itself, not the FDF.

I am trying to print out information on a Google Maps page. I have the print setting on fit to width but the page does not print that way and some of the page that would normally show on page 2 is missing.

The page prints out fine on Internet Explorer, but not on Firefox. 2 pages are supposed to print out but only 1 prints. Also it does not fit to width even though that's the setting.

That file could be set as a Launch Agent or Daemon in your ~/Library or /Library, You could try to look for it or Safeboot your computer and then empty the trash. Safebooting disables Launch Agents/Daemon and Third Party Kernal extensions. Here's the article to Safeboot OS X: What is Safe Boot, Safe Mode? - Apple Support

Print outs have thin border when -default-background-color is set

Hey everyone. In my application the print out have this very thin border. The -default-background-color is set to #333333 (dark grey) and this is the problem. When I set the color to #FFFFFF (white), the thin borders go away.
When I set the default-backgroun-color to #FFFFFF, my loading screen is white. I don't want that.
Does anyone know how I can have my loading screen with a #333333, but not have the thin border lines around my print outs? Setting the border properties on the printed component doesn't work. The problem is with the background color.
Thanks for reading.
Tom

Still hacking away at this problem.
I thought I had the fix until I deployed the AIR application. Setting the -default-background-color to white worked fine when running from flex builder, but when I installed the application. The "borders" are still showing.
Has anyone had any experience with this? I'm printing Point of Sale receipts and they look like crap with these lines around them. On top of this, some printers print differently. The HPs print a border around the whole component. The Brother printers just print the left and right. One of my customer's printers just prints the bottom and right borders.

Print out brush sets

Anyone know of a way to print out a list of brush sets like you can print out a list of fonts? I am tired of having to go and look all over the place for the brush that I need.
Thanks
Jules

Thank you Greg, for pointing out the complete obvious! Sometimes the simplest way to do something is not always forefront in your mind until someone points it out!
Ed, I do know how to use the preset manager, but I really wanted a way of looking things up on paper. I keep a manual of printed out fonts to refer to and now I have a printed out set of brushes to refer to as well.
Thank you for both of your responses!
