Strip Hex Character

I want to strip the character '0D15' from a String before inserting into a database.
The character seems to get through this line of code:
String strippedValue = unstrippedValue.replace('\n', ' ');
I thought the hex value of 0D15 is a new line?

No, unicode is not the same as hex; the same character can be many different things in "hex" depending on the character encoding used. Unicode is only one character encoding, but it is the default in Java.
You should ask the AS/400 programmer how he gets a character from 0D15, obviously it's not by using unicode.
What did you say about line breaks?

Replace hex character in a string with another hex character

Hi Guys,
Heres a problem scenario, hex character 92 looks very much like hex character 27 (apostrophe).
I need to write a program that can replace all hex character 92 to hex 27 in a string.
Being a novice on the regular expressions, I would appreciate if somebody can show
the exact syntax to to perform this replacement.
Many Thanks
-Anil

I don't think you need to use regex to do this:
String s = something();
char a = 0x27;
char b = 0x92;
s.replace(a,b);
And don't forget that since Strings are immutable you need:
s = s.replace(a,b);to do anything useful.

Non-hex character in hex string after upgrade to Yosemite

Hi,
When I try to open some of my files I get an error: "Acrobat PDF File Format is having difficulties. Non-hex character in a hex string". I could open the files before.
The only thing I've done since I opened the file last was to upgrade to Yosemite. The error occurs on both my Mac Pro (late 2013) and Mac Book Pro with Yosemite. Unfortunately, I have no access to a Mac with Mavericks and CS6 but I will try to fix one to verify that the file works there.
Affected files (Created in Illustrator CS6 on Mavericks):
services.ai
visual guidelines v.0.4.pdf
visual guidelines.ai
Tested steps:
Open previous versions of the same file from our repository
Update Illustrator CS6 to latest version
Download Illustrator CC
Tried to Place the file into another file (same error)
Tried to repair file Enable content recovery mode | Illustrator CS2-CS5

Hi svepdesigncenter,
How you are accessing those files from your repository?
There might be chances of getting files corrupted when transferring.
File may have been sent as ascii when it should have been sent as binary or vice versa.
In 99% of transfers it's ALWAYS safest to zip an AI or eps file before sending it anywhere.

Non-hex character in a hex string error message

Hi everyone,
I encountered n error message in Illustrator "Acrobat PDF File Format is having difficulties. Non-hex character in a hex string." when trying to open a particular file.
File was originally created on a Windows 7 PC, tried opening file on Mac OS 10.7.5, same Illustrator version 18. Also tried opening in PDF, Distiller, but didn't help.
Did tried to change Illustrator Preferences in both Windows and Mac, following the steps in the TecNote:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/500/cpsid_50031.html
When trying to open the file from the File > Open menu, with the keys held down, it did not open a blank file window, neither did it created a duplicate copy in the Finder where the file is located.
The file in question had about 15 artboards, a few embedded images, approx 2.6MB size.
Any suggestions/assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Hi Monika,
The file was .ai file, as mentioned earlier, was created in Illustrator ver 18.
Not emailed, stored in the folder, on the Windows PC, not a server. Last saved few days ago, tried to reopen the file from the same computer, but could no longer opened.
No, Illustrator did not crash, just the error message "Acrobat PDF File Format is having difficulties. Non-hex character in a hex string."

Non-hex character in a hex string

My Illustrator file will not open in Illustrator and I get the "non-hex character in a hex string" window whenever I try to open it. It does open in Acrobat but nothing else. I can't even save it as a pdf file..
Is there any way I can get around that or fix it?

karam,
The first thing to try is to use File>Place in a new document and see how much, if anything, is saved this way.
The next thing to try is to repair the file code, which is more difficult. The basics are told in this TechNote, the actual recovery consists of changing/adding/deleting code.

Hex character value for InDesign frame break

I have been able to identify that the hex value for a carriage return in InDesign is "000D". Is there a specific hex value for InDesign's frame break character?

Through internal magic. There are more codes that are "magic" inside an InDesign document. \u0016 for example, is the code for a table, and you can search for it too. But you cannot insert a table by putting "\x16" in the Replace field. Same with anchored object -- \uFFFC -- and various other magic markers.
I promised "a tip or two" but the only way to bring a frame break in from beyond ID itself is through a Search-and-Replace in ID after you loaded your text. Insert some unique code in your software in place of these frame breaks (something simple like "{FrameBreak}" ought to do it; unless your text may already contain this particular sequence, then you have to make up something on your own), and after placing the text into ID, search for this text and replace it with the code "^R", which is "Frame Break" according to the Find/Replace Text drop down menu.

Is it possible to convert � to a hex character?

I'm looking for a character that represents the hex value of �
I've been looking through the internet but haven't found any encouraging leads or clues. I'm thinking it may not even be possible.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance

At http://www.unicode.org you should be able to download tables. Alternatively you could write the character to a file and read it in as bytes and display the bytes in hex.

Invalid character error while activating DSO - Please help

Hi experts,
I'm getting invalid hex character error when loading a text infoobject in my DSO. Repairing data records in the PSA is not an option. Changing the data in the source system is also not an option. I've tried many of the methods suggested in other threads, but am unable to get it working (ABAP code, "ALL_CAPITAL" etc). We are on an unicode system.
Can someone provide some clean code to eliminate the illegal hex characters (00-1f) in my transfer rule routine. Basically, replace the illegal hex characters with space or an acceptable character.
Many thanks,
Anita S.

Hi,
I have used the below code for removing all unwanted chars from 0MATERIAL, that worked fine. You can modify it for ur need.
CONSTANTS:
       G_ALLOWED_CHAR(58) TYPE C VALUE
         ' !"%&''()*+,-./:;<=>?_0123456789ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ'.
    data : E_ALLOWED_CHAR(58).
RESULT = SOURCE_FIELDS-MATNR.
    SHIFT RESULT RIGHT DELETING TRAILING SPACE.
    SHIFT RESULT LEFT DELETING LEADING SPACE.
    TRANSLATE RESULT TO upper case.
*RESULT = comm_structure-/BIC/ZCONTRTD.
    while RESULT ca '#'.
      RESULT+sy-fdpos(1) = ' '.
    endwhile.
    if RESULT(1) = '!'.
      RESULT(1) = ' '.
    endif.
    do.
      if not RESULT co g_allowed_char.
        shift RESULT+sy-fdpos left.
      else.
        exit.
      endif.
    enddo.

Bullet character in imported TXT file

I am importing an external TXT file into a dynamic text box
in my SWF file using Actionscript (see AS below).
I want the text to read as a bulleted list.
I tried typing the bullet character (Option + 8 on Mac), but
this gave me Yen symbols when I previewed the movie.
Then I tried the HTML code <UL>, <LI>, etc.,
which just showed exactly as typed when previewed.
I also tried the HTML code for this character ()
but this also showed exactly as typed when previewed.
How do I create the bullet character in Flash? Is there a
reference for creating all types of special characters in Flash?
Or is there a simple way to create a bulleted list?
Many Thanks,
Nathan
My system specifications:
Mac OS 10.4.10
Flash CS3

for html content you would need to use external_txt.htmlText
= event.target.data;. also embed the basic font and the specific
"•" character
if you wanted to go the character code route you would have
to strip the character code from the string first and replace it
with a bullet.

Hex conversion problem... Please help

Hi all,
I need to convert a hex character representing a UTF-16 character to a hex string representing a UTF-8 character
i.e
String input ="0x0630"; //ARABIC LETTER THAL (UTF-16)
I want the output to be a hex representation of the same charcter in UTF-8.
Does anyone know the java code to do this?

As BIJ001 already implied: There are no "UTF-8 characters" and "UTF-16 characters". There are Unicode characters and their respective UTF-8 and UTF-16 encodings.
For example:
"ذ" is the arabic Letter Thal. Its name in the Unicode standard is ARABIC LETTER THAL. Its is the Unicode codepoint (decimal) 1584. This is often written as U+0630 (note that this number is hexadecimal).
The UTF-16 encoding of this letter is the 16bit word 0x0630 (the UTF-16 encoding of most common characters is identical to its codepoint, but that's not always the case!).
The UTF-8 encoding of this letter are the two 8bit words 0xD8 0xB0.
If you have the String "0x0630", then you can split the hexadecimal number from the String, parse it, interpret it as a char, and create a String from it. Then call getBytes("UTF-8") on it and you'll have a byte array containing the UTF-8 encoding of that character.
[_The Absolute Minimum Every Software Developer Absolutely, Positively Must Know About Unicode and Character Sets (No Excuses!)_|http://www.joelonsoftware.com/articles/Unicode.html] is a nice explanation as well.

Sender IDOC with HEX characters

Hi Chaps,
I have a situation i.e. my sender IDOC is sending some HEX characters in the text fields, XI should interpret them and convert it into text fields to the target system.
Could some one guide me on the best approach for this?
Your inputs are highly appreciable.
Regards,
Vijaya

Hi,
You will need to loop at the string array and read it character by character. You can convert from HEX to unicode using the following line of code in your UDF -
char c = (char) Integer.parseInt("str", 16);
where str is the four digit HEX character at i'th position.
Hope this helps.

Riyaz

HEX ERROR

Hello there: My colleague is on vacation so is not here to help me. When trying to edit documents I get the following error: "non hex character in hex string". Can someone tell me what to do in the simplest terms possible? I only do an odd revision of text so I don't know much about the program.
Thanks in advance.
Eileen

youneedhelp,
You may try to follow the instructions here,
http://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/kb/enable-content-recovery-mode-illustrator.html
then read through the code to try to find the non hex characters in one (or more) of the hex strings.
You may try to use search to find occurrecnces of hex, or for specific hex values if she remembers some of them.
Obviously, you need to know which hex characters are viable: there should be 6 characters, and you can see the viable characters/combinations here:

Eliminating Hex Characters in Data

Is there a way to search for specific hex characters in the database?
I have a phone number field of type varchar2, which has some hex characters I need to remove.
When I do query I see the following record.
     PHONE     DUMP(PHONE)
1     +001(718)380 4160     Typ=1 Len=18: 43,48,48,49,40,55,49,56,41,51,56,48,32,52,49,54,48,14
2     +001(225)292 2812     Typ=1 Len=18: 43,48,48,49,40,50,50,53,41,50,57,50,32,50,56,49,50,14
The hex character isn't visible in this post, but it is very much there. What's the mechanism to find this specific character? I want to find characters like '0x0E' and '0x01'
I hope I am being clear in my request. The objective is to ensure that none of these affect the XML transformation mechanism.

you can display the non-printable characters using ASCIISTR() function
