generated pdf file from oracle reports show bad characters

martin_hSep 23 2013 — edited Oct 3 2013

Hello all,

Iam fighting with a problem with generated pdf file from oracle reports which show some bad characters. I was searching for some information but it didnt help...

I have Oracle Database 11g R2 (or 10g R2) on Oracle Linux or Windows, Oracle forms and reports 6i (i know that is very old and not supported with 11gr2 but we are in this scenario).

NLS parameters are set like this

server:

NLS_CHARACTERSET EE8MSWIN1250

NLS_TERRITORY AMERICA

NLS_LANGUAGE AMERICAN

client:

NLS_CHARACTERSET EE8MSWIN1250

NLS_TERRITORY SLOVAK

NLS_LANGUAGE SLOVAKIA

When I run Oracle Reports it show perfect in display and when I try to print them, they are all good with good characters, but when I try to generate pdf file, some characters like č,š,ľ are not displaying corectly... This happen only when try to generate to pdf...

I try to work with uifont.ali on client side but without any result. Fonts for reports were installed on client and server side... Can someone help me with this problem? Thank you very much for every advice.


Martin
