Working with Chinese characters: How to paste and modify them as sentences; not as individual images?

Working with Chinese characters: How to paste and modify them as sentences; not as individual images?
From 2004, this is so far the most detailed answer I could find: http://en.allexperts.com/q/Adobe-Illustrator-1027/FONTS-display-problem-Adobe.htm, but is this really still the most up-to date solution?
Is it possible at all to work with Chinese characters, if I don't have the Chinese version of Illustrator? (http://www.proz.com/forum/dtp_desktop_publishing/221125-chinese_in_indesign.html)

Thanks for your reply.
I'm using Version 17.1.0 (64-bit) - basically CS6.
Operating system is Windows 8.1. Installed is the simplied Chinese language package.
I have received the text in a Word document. It contains mixed characters, something like this:
教授资料
学术背景：
博士；曾于波恩大学（Rheinische Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität Bonn）、台湾师范大学、
I have tried to paste it in the two following ways:
1) to create a text box and paste the text. The result is that some of the characters are not showed correctly.
2) Paste it directly without any preparation. This result into a single "image" or group of images. I can cancel modify each character one at a time, or I can dissolve the group, but the result is the same.

Problems with Chinese characters

I have a client experiencing 3 distinct problems with their Chinese-localized Fm files:
The SimSun TTF font used in the source Fm files is "uninstalling" itself. This requires reinstallation of the font on a regular basis (every few days).
The colons used in index markers in the Fm source files are not being parsed as Level1IX, Level2IX, etc. in the RoboHelp project. Instead, they are recognized as colons. In other words, the first level marker in Rh is XXXXXXXX:XXXXXXX:XXXXXXX. The same is true for the semicolons.
The conversion settings for the Chinese project do not allow for mapping to individual CSS elements and classes. This means that all of the formatting is controlled via the supplemental CSS generated from the FrameMaker formatting. IOW, the formatting all uses the class="FM_ definitions.
Has anyone had success working with Chinese characters in a FrameMaker to RoboHelp workflow (either linking or importing)?
Anyone else seen any of these issues in Chinese or any other fonts?
I'm thinking the first two issues are likely due to the TrueType font used, but can't find an Adobe OTF SimSans font to use as a replacement.
However, the lack of mapping capability in the conversion process is a stumper...perhaps due to the double-byte font itself.
Any thoughts or solutions are greatly appreciated by my client (whose deadline passed yesterday!)

I dont think you can print chinese chars at the console on window
to print the character codes to the console use someting like that
char [] chars = request.getParameter("whatever").toCharArray()
for(each chars){
System.out.println((int)chars);
then check if you got the corresponding chinese char

How to use a select statement with chinese characters?

I am currently developing a java servlet<using tomcat 4.x> which allows me to use select statement to retrieve results from the Microsoft SQL Server 2000 database. I am using a simple form to get the parameter for querying. The main problem i'm facing is that there are chinese information in the SQL database, but i can't retrieve it through the sql statement with the chinese characters input<thru the form with the help of NJ STAR>in the WHERE condition. When i execute the statement, it returns me no results even though the rows are present in the database.
Does anyone have the solution to using chinese words in the WHERE clause of the select statement to retrieve results with columns which contains chinese characters? Please help me. Thanks everyone. :)
PS: when i cut and paste those characters in the sql database and paste onto java.. it is ??? in questionmarks.. but when i paste them into excel 2000.. its shown as chinese chars again..
please heelppp~~

Greetings,
PS: when i cut and paste those characters in thesql
database and paste onto java.. it is ??? in
questionmarks.. but when i paste them into excelThis is why the SELECT is not returning any results.
You need to set the character encoding set on your
statement and parameters for the characters to be
properly translated. Refer to the charsetName
parameter in the String class constructor in your API
docs and also to
$JDK_DOCS/guide/intl/encoding.doc.html in your JDK
documentation.
2000.. its shown as chinese chars again..Because Office programs are performing the same kind
of character translation with the appropriate MS APIs.
please heelppp~~Regards,
Tony "Vee Schade" Cookis it possible for you to show me some coding examples? i don't really understand what is to be done in order to set the char set and what does it really do.. tried reading up but still dun understand.. :(
pardon my shallow knowledge of java..
ok..
The thing is when i used an insert statement with chinese characters of GBK format hardcoded into the java servlet and then i use the insert statement to insert the chars into the database, it cannot be seen as a chinese word when i off the NJStar. and then it can be searched out with my current form of servlet.. below is my coding of the servlet..

with the above servlet i created, i can search out the data in the database which i've inserted through the insert statement. I still can't search for things i've keyed into the database directly using NJStar..
thank you so much for helping.. really hope any one else who knows the answer to this will reply too... thank you all so much...

You can Purchase iPhoto in the Apps Store...

I just upgraded to the maverick and, of course, the iPhoto does not work with it. How do I upgrade to version 11? I cannot find it anywhere

Recently upgraded to Maverick and the version of iphoto does not work with it. How do I get and download the version 11? I can't find it anywhere

Which iPhoto? 9.4.6 and 9.5.1 work here.
FWIW, iLife '11 is available here: http://www.amazon.com/Apple-MC623Z-A-iLife-VERSION/dp/B003XKRZES

LRv3.2 Networking with an Asst , How to store and retrieve updated work on Win7?

LRv3.2 Networking with an Asst , How to store and retrieve updated work on Win7 Network?
We have a working 1gig network in Win7 PRO 64-bit. and using LRv3.2
* How do I configure our Files or Cataloges "so" ALL Edits are veiwable/edit to all?   (we don't work on the Same Shoot/Folder at the same time)
I NEED to see, ALL the LR Edits (is great with DNG files
*** BUT, what I cannot see if I remember correctly (with just the DNG sharing) is the CROP or Virtual Copys ... possibly the Brush edits.
HOW, do I configure to be able to read and edit ... ALL of the updated/saved Edits???   (after it is done by my asst.)
Is creating a New Catalog for EACH shoot the way to go?   (not sure I like this idea)
Right now everything is in one(1) catalog ... and it's getting big ... BUT, this allows us to search , and group ... going way back.
Would be nice to be able to still do this easily, and with what we have already done.
With our one BIG Catalog ... not sure if two(2) can access this catalog over the Network at the same time?
Even though we never Edit the Same Folder or Files at the same time.
Or will that be a problem over a simple Win7 PRO network?
Thank you,
HG

Aloha Bob,
Saw your link. thank you.
At least I don't feel "alone" LOL
At this point ... I am looking for a "cluncky"   Work Around?
* I was thinking, Maybe making a copy of My Cataloge ...
Deleting ALL the Folders in LR ... except for the one's that will be worked by the Asst.
Then moving that file to the Asst. Computer.
* NEXT, pointing the Folder that they are working on ... across the Network to the Servers Files.
* After they work on it:
*** IS THERE A WAY ...
* To take that Cataloge ... and UPDATE my Main Cataloge.
THIS, is the STEP ... I don't know how to do.
Can someone Help me with this?
Step by Step, because I am clueless ....
Talking UPDATE of everything worked on ... including   Virtual copys, and CROPS.
Thank you,
HG

There's a little cartoon and chinese characters in my status bar that I didn't not put there and can't delete

I recently had my account smurfed,I think it's called-my email was attacked-sent a bunch of emails to friends as if from me---I changed password,etc-no other problems since-but I realized this morning that there's something in my status bar with chinese characters after it(the attack on my email was from Chinese source) and when I put my cursor over it-it doesn't give me any options-doesn't open...I suspect its from the same attacker---what is it? How can I get rid of it?

From Apple support, I found out this file is in the operating system folder. Apple support is satisfied that it's not a virus because a virus wouldn't be mixed with the operating system files. I only have familiarity with PCs and know that malware frequently disguises itself within the Windows operating system. Are there any out there who are adept with OS X 10.8.2? There must be someone. I mean, people code software for new Macs all the time. Anything would be helpfull: a book, an article--anything. I don't want to spend money on an antivirus program that may not even work and probably also slow down my computer. I went through all the major antivirus programs on my PCs. All of them allowed malware to get onto my computers. And what's worse, they couldn't delete the viruses. They would just give complicated instructions that involved manually editing the registry in Windows. The primary reason I bought a Mac is that I was told at a Mac retail store that I don't need an antivirus program; that the operating system is designed with built in barriers to malware. I thank anyone in advance for help.

LoadUserProfile() creates a profile with Chinese characters on a remote system

Hi,
I'm working on an application where LoadUserProfile() is being used to remotely load a user profile on a machine. The token being passed to LoadUserProfile() is obtained from LogonUser().
When doing this only with a Domain Admin user which is added in Active Directory, it creates a profile with Chinese characters in the C:\Users\ folder of the remote machine. Note that this happens only when logging in for the first time with
this Domain Admin account remotely on that machine.
// code:
PROFILEINFO pi;
memset((void *) &pi, 0, sizeof(PROFILEINFO));
pi.dwSize = sizeof(PROFILEINFO);
pi.dwFlags = PI_NOUI;
pi.lpUserName = (TCHAR *)strUser; //strUser is the User name, and it shows correctly here when debugging
if (LoadUserProfile(hToken, &pi))
//It is actually successful, and comes here when debugging.
Although the name shows up correctly when debugging (remotely), why is it creating a profile with Chinese characters on the remote machine?
TIA,
Jy

CreateProfile won't load the profile. You need to use LoadUserProfile to load the profile, and you need to query for a roaming profile path to put in the lpProfileInfo parameter if you want to include that as well. You need a token for a
user to call LoadUserProfile, but not a profile handle. LoadUserProfile will populate that for you before it returns if it was successful. See this excerpt from
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/bb762281%28v=vs.85%29.aspx:
Upon successful return, the hProfile member
of PROFILEINFO is
a registry key handle opened to the root of the user's hive. It has been opened with full access (KEY_ALL_ACCESS). If a service that is impersonating a user needs to read or write to the user's registry file, use this handle instead of HKEY_CURRENT_USER.
Do not close thehProfile handle.
Instead, pass it to the UnloadUserProfile function.
This function closes the handle. You should ensure that all handles to keys in the user's registry hive are closed. If you do not close all open registry handles, the user's profile fails to unload. For more information, see Registry
Key Security and Access Rights and Registry
Hives.

Emails arriving with Chinese characters

Hello,
I have a couple outside contacts that send emails to my users regarding travel. Flight itineraries and the like. Those emails usually have a PDF attached. Not sure if that is relavent or not. The emails display in my users Outlook client (2010) with Chinese
characters and some other odd characters (like a smiley face and hearts).
The research I've done points at the senders email server having the root issue. Perhaps they just had a patch applied and it changed the locale or they may be using a Lotus Notes server.
Lately, we've been getting more in from another outside source with the same problem, so I'm wondering if it isn't actually on my Exchange server (2007). Does anyone have an idea of what I could check to verify that this is or is not on my end of the pipe?
TIA

Hi,
According to your description, I recommend you use pipeline tracing to troubleshoot the issue.
Please refer to the following article to understand pipeline tracing:
Using Pipeline Tracing to Diagnose Transport Agent Problems
Pipeline tracing is a diagnostic feature in Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 that enables you to capture diagnostic information about e-mail messages as they encounter transport agents registered on Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) events in the transport
pipeline. Exchange captures verbose information about the changes that each transport agent applies to messages in the transport pipeline in message snapshot files. If transport rules are configured, Exchange Server also records any actions that each transport
rule takes on these messages.
How to Enable Pipeline Tracing
Hope this helps!
Thanks.

I have a macbook pro with OSX Mavericks 10.9.5 and some keys that are not working. Specifically, the enter/return button, the "p", "0", ";", and all the function keys. What's really weird is that happens randomly. I've never spilled anything on it

I have a macbook pro with OSX Mavericks 10.9.5 and some keys randomly are not working. Specifically, the enter/return button, the "p", "0", ";", and all the function keys. What's really weird is that happens randomly. I've never spilled anything on it, and I can't for the life of me figure out how to fix this. Can anyone help? of course this happened after my warranty expired.

**update**
I don't know if this will help someone but I am posting this for that purpose. In the past when I first had this problem, I'd read a post somewhere (sorry, long ago, don't have the link) where an individual was having the same problem and they stated that when the MBP got heated, that's when the keys would stop working, and they went into the MBP and jiggle some stuff around (a specific wire, I'm not electronically inclined so I know NOT of what they spake!). Well I didn't want to do that but it always stuck in the back of my mind. I had given up, really, and was planning to take my MBP to the apple store. But by chance one night I left my MBP on the floor where it's cool, and when I turned it on, the problem went - poof! It seems there was some validity to the post that spoke about heat, because my problems started when I would stream foreign dramas on my MBP for hours at night, and I would hear the fan going off all the time, and in the mornings, my "p", "enter", "0", ";", and all the function keys would stop working.
So, maybe try keeping the MBP in a cool place when it's off. Since I've started doing this overnight every night (keeping it on the cool floor, out of reach of any big feet), I have not had a single problem with my keyboard.
Hopefully this might help someone.

Reply email with chinese characters become

My colleagues sent an email with Chinese characters while I'm outside the office, so I replied it using my iPhone 4S with Chinese characters too.
However, my colleagues (she is using Outlook) said the email that she received is not readable. All the Chinese characters become garbled.
This issue also applied to iPad 2 because I again resent it using my iPad 2.
Is there a way to overcome this issue? Otherwise, I cannot do my work when I'm away my desk.
Pls help~

If I create a new mail using my iPhone 4GS or iPad 2, I won't have the problem.
This issue only applied when I reply or forward an email from my colleagues whoes emails contain Chinese characters. To avoid this issue, the only language I can use is typing English but some of my colleagues only understand Chinese.
I believe this problem is an encolding issue too because this case also apply on the Mail in my MacBook Pro. But I can change my encoding to "Traditional Chinese - Big 5" on Mail in my MBP but iPhone & iPad don't have this function.
The problem still there even I switched the OS language b/w English and Chinese.

The apple store is so unhelpful. I have an iMac computer operating on Mac OSX 10.5.8. I want to upgrade to the latest Mountain Lion operating system so I can work with the iCloud on my computer and download my email. I can't seem to purchase this on-line

The apple store is so unhelpful. I have an iMac computer operating on Mac OSX 10.5.8. I want to upgrade to the latest Mountain Lion operating system so I can work with the iCloud on my computer and download my emails. I can't seem to purchase this on-line as it keeps telling me to go to the app store. I haven't got the app store on my computer as I am told I need iCloud for which I need the new operating system, which I can't download or purchase as I am sent back to an instruction telling mee to go to the app store icon.
How difficult can it be to simply purchase the software on-line have it shipped to you so you can install it, in the event it cannot be downloaded as it appears it can't be based on my curent operating systems being Mac OSX 10.5.8.

How do I do that.
I tried going to file >get info and it would not allow me to unlock.

It sounds like the folder you are saving to does not have the proper permission for you to write to it. What OS are you using?

I work with Premiere Pro on a mac and export quicktime movies to be played on pc's or mac's

I work with Premiere Pro on a mac and export quicktime movies to be played on pc's or mac's. When I export a qt from Premiere with audio it will not play on a pc only a mac. After extensive research I have narrowed down the problem to this: if you use the inspector in quicktime it looks like this
DV, 720 x 480 (640 x 480), Millions
16-bit Integer (Little Endian), Stereo (L R), 48.000 kHz
I have to run it thru AE to make it look like this....then it plays
DV, 720 x 480 (640 x 480), Millions
16-bit Integer (Big Endian), Stereo, 48.000 kHz
SOOOO the problem is the Little/Big Endian. I googled that and it looks like a file/bit structure....anyone know how/why to change it in Premiere? Because everytime I make a movie in Prem I have to drag the sequence into AE and render it there so the sounds works.....
thanks

Two questions:
1. What CODEC are you choosing when exporting on the Mac?
2. Do you have any Blackmagic hardware/software installed?
Cheers

HI Dave,
I'm surprised you get no message when you attempt opening the Excel document in Numbers.
I'm assuming Numbers 3.1, since you are running Mavericks.
Does the Numbers file that opens show any content?
Does it contain a table?
How large?
Does it contain more than one tab (indicating more than one sheet)?
Do those other tabs contain a table?
Have you checked those tables for data content?
There have been cases in the past of imported documents opening with white text on a white background, giving the appearance of containing nothing. Check for this by selecting a block of cells, then applying a Fill colour or a Text colour using the Format button (paintbrush).
I'd also suggest attempting to open the Excel files using LibreOffice, which can be downloaded from the linked website.
Regards,
Barry
