I think the only solution is for you to try to get your material in another format, like .doc or .html, or modify the way the pdf's are created. Whether your current pdf's are made in some unusual way or iOS lacks something they need is hard to know. To tell Apple about the problem go here:

Can't show special characters (ÆØÅ) in pdf fields created with inDesign CS6

Hi Guys im having a problem with special characters in pdf's form fields created in inDesign CS6
instead of the character ÆØÅ it creates squares or some other seemingly random character
Here's the pdf

I figured it out
Just in case people had the same problem here is how it's done: (i misunderstood the two posters above me, so you are actually going to change fonts within acrobat, like they said, and save it)
Open the pdf in acrobat, go and change font settings for each of your fields and change the font under the "Appearance" tab.

Trouble with Special Characters

I am having trouble adding special characters when typing! I went to help, and found out how, in theory, to insert them by going to the characters palette, but when I click edit/special characters, or when I go Fonts and click special characters on the drop-down menu in the lower left corner, nothing happens. Simply nothing at all. Do I somehow just not have this feature? Why wouldn't I have it, and how can I fix it so that I do? Please help!

How to write special characters in PDF using iText

How to write special characters encoded with UTF-8 in PDF using iText.
Regards,
Pandharinath.

I don't know what your problem is but that's almost certainly the wrong question to ask about it. Java (including iText) uses only Unicode characters. (You may consider some of them to be "special" if you like but Unicode doesn't.) And when it does that, they aren't encoded in UTF-8 or any other encoding.
So can you describe your problem? That question doesn't make sense.

Write Special Characters in PDF file from SAP Script

Hi there,
Need a quick help...
We are converting SAP Script to PDF using the function module CONVERT_OTF
and saving the file on presentation server using GUI_DOWNLOAD...
But in certain cases where the item text is maintained with some special
characters like @#$% u03B1 u03B2 u03B3 u03B4 ®... then, some of these characters are seen
as junk/garbage characters...
how do we handle this??
P.S. Our Forms are already using Korean Font...
Any help is highly appreciated
Kind Regards,
Tanuja

Hi,
Use the FM CONVERT_OTF to get the Binary data and down load it as PDF .
sample
*/ Convert the OTF data into PDF.
    call function 'CONVERT_OTF'
     exporting
       format                      = 'PDF'
     importing
       bin_filesize                = lv_bin_filesize
        bin_file                   = lv_xstring
      tables
        otf                        = lt_otf_data-otfdata[]
        lines                      = lt_pdf_data
     exceptions
       err_max_linewidth           = 1
       err_format                  = 2
       err_conv_not_possible       = 3
       err_bad_otf                 = 4
       others                      = 5 .
*/ Convert the Xstring data into PDF
    call method cl_document_bcs=>xstring_to_solix
      exporting
        ip_xstring = lv_xstring
      receiving

Skype Showing Special Characters as Boxes []

Just less than an hour ago, I had a problem with some virus-extensions. I did necessary uninstallments and downloaded Adwere to make sure the extensions are gone for good. Once I've done so, Adwere uninstalled many different files. So far, no problem with anything in Skype. Except my name and other special characters.
Like, now some Japanese/Chinese/Korean ETC. characters are showing as boxes. What bothers me the most is my name. It used to be (づ｡◕‿‿◕｡)づ but now it shows like this: http://puu.sh/cndAy/f9f6c721dc.png . I'd like to keep the same font, Tahoma (8 points) because it has been the same always and my name and other characters in my friends' names ETC. where always shown. So any solution instead of changing fonts/installing fonts is appreciated because I'm so used to Tahoma's look on the many years I used Skype and don't want any change.

You're right that whitespace doesn't show as squares anymore (I think they did in the past), but everything else seems OK.
Why don't you try something like this and prove for yourself:
select '
!"#$%&''()*+,-./0123456789:;<=>?@ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ[\]^_`abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz{|}~€‚ƒ„…†‡ˆ‰Š‹ŒŽ‘’“”•–—˜™š›œžŸ ¡¢£¤¥¦§¨©ª«¬®¯°±²³´µ¶·¸¹º»¼½¾¿ÀÁÂÃÄÅÆÇÈÉÊËÌÍÎÏÐÑÒÓÔÕÖ×ØÙÚÛÜÝÞßàáâãäåæçèéêëìíîïðñòóôõö÷øùúûüýþÿ' from dualRegards,

How to show Special Characters like (∠) in an Embedded text field

I want to show some special characters like (∠). It is working fine if we don't embed the text field. But I want to use superscript and subscript font, so I have to embed that dynamic text field. When I embedd the texfield it does not show me the (∠) symbol. Instead it shows me a square symbol. Please let me know how can I solve this problem. My project is nearly finish except for this part.
Thanks in advance
Salim

Yes, I know we need to include the symbols. But I am unable to include it. Whenever I click on embed option and paste the symbol (∠) in the include these characters box, it appears as a square symbol. This is driving me nuts.
I even tried to embed All (54665 glyphs). But this is not working either.
Has anyone faced this problem before?

Try to show special characters in a JLabel

Hi everybody,
I have a big problem with special characters and to display them.
At the moment I'm writing an Applet where you can type in
in a JTextField stuff like \u0398 \u03B6 \u03A6 \u03C9 \u03BE.
Then you press a JButton and the method TextField.getText();
gives the input to a String. After that with the method
Label.setText(String);
i want to display the special characters, but they weren't shown.
Instead of its the typed in characters (\u0398 \u03B6 \u03A6 \u03C9 \u03BE) appear.
If I hardcode it, it works and every special character i want is displayed.
Label.setText("\u0398 \u03B6 \u03A6 \u03C9 \u03BE");
So what is wrong?
If some things are not so clear don't hesitate to ask me
Thanks in advance
swachtar

hi,
I think I have an idea of what is going wrong with your code:
The text in the JTextField is stored as a String in the Document. However, each character typed into the field will be stored separately, that means that the six characters typed have to be merged into one. So try creating a new String object from the textfield data and pass this one to the label:
JLabel label;
JTextField textField;
label.setText(new String(textField.getText()));
I don't know whether this works, but this is the only idea comming to my mind right now.
best regards, Michael

Identify and show Special Characters in the SQL result set

Hi all,
The values in a column (SC - colunm name) has special characters. For eg. 496+>9, 223'32, 167&45. Is there any function in Oracle that would give me the below result when i query that colum.
select SC from xyz;
Result should be as follows:
496+>9
223'32
167&45
Thanks in advance.

yes it will have numbers and characters also along with the special characters
The results from my previous post was wrong. Here is the expected results;
496+>9
223'32
167&45
can you give me the exact query to get the above resultant.
Thank you

Special characters in PDF printing

Hi All,
I am generating a document which lists instructions to verify Linux system packages. One of the command lines which the user is required to follow is:
rpm -qa --queryformat "%{NAME}-%{VERSION}.%{RELEASE} (%{ARCH})\n" | grep glibc*
However, if the above is present in my RTF template the generated PDF file is corrupt (file size is 0)
Are there any special character combinations which are not allowed in PDF's?
What would you suggest to bypass this limitation (except converting it into a JPG)?
Best Regards,
Pawel.

Okular showing wrong characters in pdf

hi all,
i hve some problems with the recent okular (kdegraphics-okular 4.6.3-1), poppler (poppler 0.16.4-1) and gsfonts (gsfonts 1.0.7pre44-2) related to a known and so-called solved bug https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=26139 .
the workaround discussed there does not seem to be a workaround for me as they just copy some files i wont find on my machine. anybody has a clue how to fix this properly?
bug is beeing seen in okular only, xpdf can show the pdf file properly. if someone points out a upload solution i can provide a sampe, where pi ist shown as != (as told in the bug report)
thanks in advance

i think you have to convert them first, because the original data is in hex/binary.
Try convert it using FM CV120_CONVERT_CONTENT_TABLE.

INSO-filter doesn't work correct with german special characters in pdf-files

During testing the interMedia Text I watched that some words from pdf-files are not indexed. That's why I use the INSO-filter at the DOS command-line:
ctxhx xxx.pdf xxx.txt <<The xxx.pdf-file includes the phrase:
"... generell |berwiegende vffentliche Interessen im Sinne ..."
The result in the xxx.txt-file is:
"... generell |berwiegende Interessen im Sinne ..."
The word "vffentliche" is lost. Is this a bug in INSO-filter or an incorrect using?
Thanks for helping.
Michael

Actually, The inso filters do not even work for me for PDF file versions 1.2+. Is anyone else experiencing the same difficulties ? How often does Oracle update the INSO filters to keep up with vendors (Adobe/Microsoft) coming out with newer versions of their document products ?

Special characters not showing

Hello, I am having a strange problem with showing special characters in the browser when I upload the site. (its fine when I view it on localserver)
For example on my website: http://www.reese-test2.co.uk/
if you do a search for example: 3GLG534WW - instead of seeing the degree symbol there is a �
it should read 35° beam angle not 35� beam angle
I know i could go through all 500 products and change the beam angle character on my SQL database to: 35°
But surely there is an easier way? This being a lighting website for my work I have other special characters that will also show up weird, so would be good if there was an easy fix to this. I am using WAMP, and DW CS6.
Is there a line of code I can add to my results.php page that will force the characters to show properly?
thanks
Sara

Hi Just thought I would update this post. My server provider said they cannot change the character set due to how they were set up, so had to do a find/replace in PHPmyAdmin - (SQL tab) instead.
Ken thanks for your idea. This didnt initially work for me, so googled it and had to make a couple of changes to the code, but this then worked. "Replace" needs to be in caps and the brackets removed.
Original:
update [table_name] set [field_name] = replace([field_name],'[° ]','[°]');
Correct:
UPDATE productsearch SET description = REPLACE ( description, ‘°’, ‘°’);
thanks for your help Ken Binney

You need URL Encoding not HTML tags in order to show special
characters from
your text file:
%26 for & and %3F for ?
