Need to add special characters in sap scripts

Hi All,
I need to add special characters in sap script.
I have used them as it is my script,but in the print preview i am able to see '#' instead of those special characters.Can anybody please tell me the way in which we can add special characters in the scripts.
eg. 'Shlesha' i.e. name in inverted colons.
Thanks

Hi
If # is coming means, that is the problem with the printer. I think u might have used your local printer to see the print preview.
Don't use LOCL or LP01. Our local printer won't recognize those characters.
Just change the printer name to client printer name. It will work.

Chinese characters printing in Scripts in SAP

Hi,
I would like to print Chinese characters in the scripts in SAP Unicode system.
We are trying thru SAP but unable to print. If anyone already done this please help me to solve this.
Thanks,
Krishna chaitanya.

hi krishna
there are various factors like printers, script language settings influencing printing the chinese characters.First you can try to print the hardcoded chinese characters using <b>locl</b> instead of network printers. for this u need to copy the chinese characters and paste in the script using the native login (not nesscary to login to SAP in chinese login). If this works then u need to check the printer model supported by SAP for printing double byte characters. For more information pls post this Q in SCRIPT section of SDN. Also there are couple of notes availbale for troubleshooting this issue.

Unable to print special characters in SAP script.

Hi,
There is an address which needs to be hardcoded in a SAP Script form.
It looks like:
Česká republika s.r.o
Karla Engliu0161e 3219/4
Česká republika
IČO: 25635972
The letters which has got a tilde and sign above them are appearing as a hash '#' in print. I have tried uploading it as an image and as standard text. But still not working. Can someone help please?
Thanks in advance,

Special characters in shell script

I'd like to run the following one line shell script which brings up the login window.
/System/Library/CoreServices/Menu\ Extras/User.menu/Contents/Resources/CGSession -suspend
this works form the terminal but I want to do it inside apple script using
"do shell script".
I know that I need to use some form of quoting because the path contains a special symbol (namely "space" inside "Menu Extras").
How do I do that?
Sorry for a completely newbie question. I know this is something obvious but I'm just trying out scripting.

You need to escape the escape character "\" itself by putting another in front.
Unfortunately, the discussions system is preventing me from showing it here as it's interpreting the double escape into the space character.

Printing Turkish Characters in SAP Script Form

Hi I want to print a Form where I need to Print Turkish characters from Database. Its Print Preview is coming absolutely right but there is some problem while printing. I shows # symbol in places of Turkish Characters. I have checked the printer and drivers and they are absolutely fine. Printer is printing other documents in Turkish Language but not the form. System has Turkish fonts installed. Kindly help. Thanks in advance.

Hi
See this OSS note for your problem
OSS Note: 776507
Symptom
Documents printed via SAPscript or SmartForms do not print with correct special characters, e.g. ### prints instead of Japanese or Russian characters. What to do?
Other terms
SAPscript, SmartForms, printing, device types, OTF
Reason and Prerequisites
Help required to choose proper fonts in a SAPscript or SmartForm
Solution
When using SAPscript or SmartForms to print (or email or fax) a form from a business application, many factors influence the outcome of the actual text within the form. All these factors must be checked in order to ensure a correct printout:
1) The language version of the form used to produce the printout.
Example: If you want to print a French invoice, you need to have a FR version of your SAPscript or SmartForms invoice form RVINVOICE01. And the application program must specify the corresponding language key (FR) when calling the SAPscript or SmartForms API.
2) The font selections specified in the form (possibly also in a SAPscript style or SmartStyle used in a form).
Example: In a SAPscript form or a SmartStyle you need to specify HELVE if you want to print German text in Helvetica (or similar) font. If you want to print Japanese text, HELVE is not a valid choice but you need to specify a Japanese font like JPMINCHO in your Japanese form.
3) The output character set of the device type
Every printer in transaction SPAD has a "device type" assigned. Device types used by the spooler for printing support only one single specific output character set. All text from the form has to be converted (using SAP's built-in character conversion mechanism) to this output character set.
A character set can typically support either a single language (e.g. Shift-JIS which supports only Japanese) or a set of languages (e.g. ISO 8859-1, which supports Western-European languages). It is possible that a given language (such as German) can be supported by several output character sets, e.g. you may use either ISO 8895-1 (Latin-1) or ISO 8859-2 (Latin-2) to represent German text. This is so because both character sets contain the special characters used in German.
Example: HPLJ4000 is a HP LaserJet device type supporting the ISO 8859-1 (Latin-1) character set. ISO 8859-1 can be used to represent e.g. Dutch, English, French, German, Spanish, Swedish but NOT Russian or Japanese.
As a consequence, it is ok to use HPLJ4000 to print English, German French etc. but not for Japanese or Russian.
4) The set of available printer fonts for a given device type
When formatting a document, SAPscript and SmartForms perform an automatic mapping of the font definitions in the form (e.g. "HELVE 14 point bold") and the available printer fonts of the device type. A replacement printer font is chosen, should the specified font selection not be available in the device type. Now this replacement can be problematic if a language-specific font, such as Chinese CNSONG, is specified in a form and it gets replaced by a font which does not support this language, e.g. COURIER.
To solve this problem, font families in SE73 have language attribute assigned, e.g. some fonts are characterized as being suitable only for certain languages. And when a replacement has to be chosen because the original font from the form is not available in the device type, a replacement font is chosen which has the same language attributes.
If no fonts for the language in question exist in the device type, the resulting font will not be able to print the special characters and you will see "wrong" output characters in the printout.
Note on SAPscript/SmartForms Print Preview:
The OTF Print Preview available in Windows GUI (e.g. from transaction SP01) will sometimes not show the "wrong" characters which appear on the final printout. Here is the reason: since the Print Preview runs in Windows environment, it will use Windows fonts to represent the actual printer fonts. A Windows font typically has more available characters (i.e. covers more character sets) than are actually available in a printer's resident font.
A typical example where the Print Preview will differ from the printout is here: if you have a Chinese PCL5 printer such as CNHPLJ4 and use the Western Latin font COURIER in your document, the print preview will show you Chinese characters if you (by accident) tried to format Chinese characters in COURIER font. This is because Windows will automatically choose a font that can output Chinese characters (which is actually not Courier). But when you print the job on an actual PCL5 printer with resident Western and Chinese fonts, the Courier font will not print any Chinese characters but Western special characters instead, because the printer's resident Courier font does not include Chinese characters.
Rule of thumb: all Asian device types (e.g. CNHPLJ4, JPHPLJ4, JPPOST, KPHPLJ4) support not only Asian fonts but also COURIER, HELVE and TIMES fonts. But these Latin fonts can only be used to print English text, not Chinese/Japanese/Korean characters.
Which fonts are suitable for a given language?
Language(s):            Font family to use in a form:
Latin-1 (Western Europe/Americas) *******
DE,EN,FR,ES,NL,SV       COURIER, HELVE, TIMES

Verify your output by examining the OTF data
When analysing printing problems of this type, be sure to check the OTF data which gets produced by SAPscript or SmartForms. OTF or "Output Text Format" is the intermediate page-description format generated from SAPscript or SmartForms. OTF will contain the final printer font names and character set/language identifiers which help to solve the problem. OTF will even name the form and the language of the form used to create the output.
The easiest way to do this is to create a spool request from your application, run transaction SP01, use menu
Goto->Display Requests->Settings
and choose
Display Mode: Raw
Now display your spool request. If this is a SAPscript or SmartForms spool request, you will see OTF data. Each line represents one OTF command, every command starts with a 2-character cmd identifier and possibly some cmd parameters follow.
Here is an excerpt from a sample OTF file where we highlight the most interesting commands:
//XHPLJ8000    0700 00000000001
IN04EALEXTEST_ZEBRA
IN05%PAGE1
OPDINA4 P 144 240 1683811906000010000100001

UL +0000000000000
SW00067
CT00000000
ST0453037Dieses SF hat Stil ALEXTEST_ZEBRA mit
The 1st line with the // (Control) command reveals the device type usedto print: HPLJ8000
//XHPLJ8000    0700 00000000001
The 2nd line (IN = Info command) shows the name and (internal 1-char)language key of the form:
IN04EALEXTEST_ZEBRA
In this case it is the English (E = EN) SmartForm ALEXTEST_ZEBRA
The OP-line (OP = Open Page) gives the page format used in the form, it is DINA4 Portrait orientation:
OPDINA4 P 144 240 1683811906000010000100001
The CP (CodePage) cmd shows the SAP system codepage used to code the text and the active language. In our case it is codepage 1100 and language E = EN = English.
CP11000000E
Finally, the FC-cmd (Font Call) lists a printer font selected within SmartForms. Please note that every SmartForm has a designated default SmartStyle under "Form Attributes->Output Options". In addition, every text node can have a SmartStyle attached (which will override the definitions from the default style for the text). In our case the resulting printer font that was selected is HELVE 12.0 pt bold-off, italic-off.

PDF file will not print out Special Characters

I am currently a technician for a college and, and the customer that I am attending currently has the following Problem:
I am using Adobe PRO 9 to convert my Word files to pdfs for [a New York Printing Company].... The Greek letters used in Word are seen in Word, are seen in PDF, but do not come out in ...[the New York Printing Companies'] printing.
What could be the stubling block for the NY printing company to not be able to print out the Special Characters in the PDF files? I clearly cannot go to the company myself and tell them to change their printer settings or something like that.

Thank you, I have checked the font and I see all the fonts I need already installed. I am not sure if this will solve the problem, and there is a chance that the Adobe Acrobat settings on my customers PC need to be adjusted like you said.
At least I can start looking somewhere .

Problems with special characters with XML/PDF printing

Hi,
Our setup:
Apex Listener 2.0.5
Oracle DB 11G
Weblogic
Apex 4.2.2
Various recent major browsers
We used this blog post so we could do some PDF printing with APEX Listener:
http://marcsewtz.blogspot.be/2013/04/pdf-printing-with-oracle-application.html
The problem is special characters. For example the "&" sign comes out as "%26amp;" when we export an XML.
Could anyone provide some insights of what we can do to fix this?
Regards,
Joni

Smart Web Printing does not show/print german special characters (äöü)

I have installes Smart Web Printing on my computer with WIndows 7. I do use a german localization. Selected text is shown and printed correct, except german special characters ä ö ü. They are even not shown correctly in the menues of the application.

Response to cor-el suggestions:
I tried what you suggested as far as checking the theme (it's "Default 8.0") and deleting the sessionstore files (there was one .js file, one -1.js file and one .bak file). I still have the same slow response problems (especially typing, it has gone dead on me for a short time twice while typing this replay so far, now a third time) and lost of headers and trailers and some data.
I did the suggested actions three times just to make sure that I was doing them correctly. On the first try, the sessionstore.js and sessionstore-1.js was more than twice the size of sessionstore.bak. Since doing what was suggested, the sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak are, I believe, the same size. I did not write down their size is why I am not certain.
The printing problem appears to only be with one website which is an investment website which I would prefer not to document here. I print from this website each weekday and I have confirmed that the printing problem started when the upgrade to version 8.0 occurred.
I need a solution to this or I am going to either go back to IE (Ugh!) or find another browser. The typing delays are an extreme annoyance since I do lots on the Internet including a lot of emailing. The delays also involve the buttons to select functions within a website.
Is there a way to get back to the version previous to version 8.0?

Print preview for the special characters / symbols

While displaying print preview / taking print output using QGA3 Transaction with developed Z SAPScript form specified as one of the parameters(say for example ZARMEXP), the special characters / symbols like u2018∆u2019 are displayed as u2018#u2019 in the print preview / print output . Of course similar problem had existed for Lambda Symbol u2018u03BBu2019., but it was resolved by using the font type Helve_I7. But for the symbol u2018∆u2019 we checked with almost all the fonts that were available in the system, but of not much use. Hence could you kindly provide us solution(s) that would resolve this issue.

Hi ,
Can you please check language are installed properly in sap check with basis people. then try to print it will work.
when ever language are not maintin properly , the characters or symbols are not print properly.
