Hello,
This issue is because the Excel output from BI Publisher is MHTML (XML Publisher generates XHTML) not binary .xls.
MHTML and XHTML are more verbose formats than binary .xls.
It will be large because the current Excel output is just an HTML and not compressed like PDF. Please use the workaround (save it as .xls file). This is a known limitation of RTF layout templates.
BI Publisher Enterprise has a new feature True Excel Templates. The layouts generate binary Excel output.

PI removing blank spaces at the end of the lines in a plain text file

Hi -
I have an interface that transfers a file via FTP. I defined both the sender and receiver to transfer either Text or Binary but the interface removes every blank space I have after the last character. The file is a fixed lenght file.
Example:
Original file:
Hello world(space)(space)(space)(space)(space)(space)(space)(space)(eol)
where (space) is the space character and (eol) is the end of line char.
File after it is received.
Hello world(eol)
I already defined the parameter Row.fieldFixedLenghts with 10164 which is the lenght of the lines of the file.
Any ideas why it may be happening?
Thanks,
Carlos.

Hi -
I tried both the parameters:
xml.fieldContentFormatting
structure.fieldContentFormatting
The received file still has the problem. All the blank spaces are cleared out.
The file is a plain text file not an XML file. May this be the issue?
Thanks,
Carlos.

Hi,
Just use Condense g_name inside the program lines.
Just to see how it behaves put a hard breakpoint.
Break Username. and check the condense statement.
condense <your field> no-gaps.
Create program lines ahead of printing. give the field you want to condense in the input and output parameters of the program lines.
Use condense inside the program lines.
Thanks,
Vamshi.

Is this an InDesign question? You are talking about PDFs. Are they exported from InDesign, and you are asking how to fix them some way in InDesign before exporting again to PDF? Or are you placing PDFs into InDesign. If neither of these is your question, you may want to ask over in the Acrobat forum.

How to remove blank space left from Images Word import

Hi all,
I'm working on a document which has been imported from Word, because of the conversion process a lot of images (that where pasted directly from Powerpoint in Word) didn't get converted properly and ended up in different part of the resulting Pages document.
The issue is that the images were found somewhere else, but the space they were occupying in the document was left ..sometimes in that space I find a squared frame which I can easily remove but some other times I just find a blank space which is impossible to remove or select.
This results in breaking the text for 10-13 lines. It is impossible to make the text filling this space. I can assure I cannot select this area with any tool (also by selecting 'make master objects selectable') and Im using the 'show invisibles' mode.
Please any suggestion or advise?
Im available to send a part of the document so anyone may check if wants to help me..
Thanks a lot
cheers

Hi Jerry thanks for your possible help , please find below a part of the text Im working, the issue is at the end of page 16 where I highlighted in yellow the text, I cannot get rid of the space at page 16:
Sorry if the document is in Italian and it is quite understanble for all you..
http://www.wupload.com/file/2677565317/example_of_my_problem.pages
I had to put it on wupload because the file is 77MB, sorry!!!
..and I dunno why...the whole document is 264 pages and is 77,8 MB I thought that only 17 pages were less...
I think thisis another BIG ISSUE thie FILE:.I think there is something hidden in it which is subtracting space...
Actually whne I imported the original document from Word it became 100MB, then I got rid of all the images but still 77MB, in word it was just 12MB with images..
Any more idea/suggestions about this size issue please?
Thanks a lot to everyone
cheers
simo
PS
in some of the footnotes there are some citation I imported using Endnote x5, but this is not affecting too much the size, as before these citations when I imported the document were not

DMEE : Delete Trailing spaces in the output file..

Dear Friends
I am using a DMEE Tree t generate a payment file.
Everything is fine except that teh bank requires the trailing spaces to be deleted.
i.e. I am getting an output like below but with spaces in place of dots
:50H:/09618078222002EUR....................<CR/LF>
Sana'a............................................ <CR/LF>
:70:DMEE-TEST14.................<CR/LF>
Note:The dots represents spaces which I want to remove. The dots are added to show you the output...
The <CR/LF> is printing at the end of the field length. I mean if the field is 34 Chr long then the
<CR/LF> is getting printed at 35th Char irrexpective of teh field contents...
But the bank requires in the below format. i.e. remove the spaces thats all.
:50H:/09618078222002EUR<CR/LF>
Sana'a<CR/LF>
:70:DMEE-TEST14<CR/LF>
Can anyone help.
I am working on SAP 4.6C
Help will surely be reawrded....

Hello Sam,
I DO NOT know if i can make you understand the logic, but will give it a try )
The <CR/LF> is printing at the end of the field length. I mean if the field is 34 Chr long then the
<CR/LF> is getting printed at 35th Char irrexpective of teh field contents...
You define an element of length 35 char, then in the "Mapping Procedure" select the "Own Mapping (Atoms)" & set the "Atom Handling" as 01 (Concatenate values in element).
Then create the ATOMS: one with the value "DMEE-TEST14" & the other atom with the value "<CR/LF>
". The output will be a concatenation of the two fields )
Did you get what i wanted to tell you )

Excel output file size is large - How to make it small in size?

Hi,
An Excel file out put is too large when I get it from application. If I copy and paste the same content in an excel sheet , the size is too small.
How can I fix this?
Excel output size from application - 12.4 MB - 4500 records
copy paste file size - 827 KB
Oracle EBS 11.5.10.2
BI Publisher Desktop Version - 10.1.3.4.2
Thanks in advance.

BIP generates an XHTML output with mime-type xls and thus Excel is invoked when it is downloaded. XHTML is text and therefore it is lenghty. When you copy and paste it in Excel you save it in binary format and compress.
My suggestion is create an excel template instead of rtf. Not sure if this is possible for EBS (open a ticket with Oracle Support to confirm you can use excel templates in EBS the version you have).
Reference:
http://blogs.oracle.com/xmlpublisher/entry/real_excel_templates_i
In this way your output will be a truly binary file with size much more smaller.

Pl help me on this guys

Varun

HI Varun,
This will help you..
In the message type <b>mt_xml_receive</b>r there is a box where the namespace name is specified.
Simply delete the same and activate the message type.
In your case what you can do is as you dont want the message type name also.
you can create the message type name as DETAILS instead of mt_xml_receiver.

How to remove blank spaces in the source code of my page?

I created a page with the following code for testing:
<dsp:page>
<dsp:importbean bean="/atg/commerce/catalog/ProductLookup"/>
     <dsp:droplet name="ProductLookup">
          <dsp:param name="id" value="xprod2046" />
          <dsp:param name="elementName" value="product" />
          <dsp:oparam name="output">
               <dsp:valueof param="product.DisplayName"/>
          </dsp:oparam>
     </dsp:droplet>
</dsp:page>
It only shows the product name in the browser. But if I look at the source code of my page he created 61 lines in response to this code, where a line is the product name and the other 60 have nothing.
I know how to remove these lines that the ATG creates no content because my project is full of these empty lines.
Anyone ever had this problem and could help me?
Thanks

Hi ,
Yup this is a problem ,
you can use following ways :
1- use jsp comments eg :
<dsp:page>
<dsp:importbean bean="/atg/commerce/catalog/ProductLookup"/><%--
     ----%><dsp:droplet name="ProductLookup"><%--
          ----%><dsp:param name="id" value="xprod2046" /><%--
          ----%><dsp:param name="elementName" value="product" /><%--
          ----%><dsp:oparam name="output"><%--
               ----%><dsp:valueof param="product.DisplayName"/><%--
          ----%></dsp:oparam><%--
     ----%></dsp:droplet><%--
----%></dsp:page>
2- End tags at next line :
e g :
* <dsp:page
* ><dsp:droplet name=”xyz”
* ><dsp:oparam name=”output”
* >Name: <dsp:valueof param=”abc”
* /></dsp:oparam
* ></dsp:droplet
* ></dsp:page>
3- Always use TAB instead of using SPACEBAR whie writing source code.
4 - From JSP 2.1 onwards we have a page directive trimwhitespaces ( see if that works , i was not able to ), google for it for more info
5 - You can modify your build scripts to remove white spaces from jsps while building EAR.(complex though, as you may not want to trim all white space.)
6 - modifying the deployment descriptor.
<init-param>
<param-name>trimSpaces</param-name>
<param-value>true</param-value>
</init-param>
