StaticText & TextField use different encoding

2003-02-20 00:02

When I try to enter russin symbols (windows Cp1251) in StaticText everything fine. But in TextField I get symbols in wrong encoding (windows cp1252 I suppose). Is there any settings for default encoding?

StaticText and textfield are managed by jasperreport in different manner. The first is text that is compiled as is in the jasper file, textfield, othervise, is java code, saved and recompiled, so it's fundamental the XML encoding used to save the file.

This is a mail exchange between me and Vyacheslav Pedak, the first russian that has solved this problem. If I remembre right, the XML Encoding was UTF-8. I hope this helps you.

Hello Giulio,

 

 

Something like this:

 

 

<textField isStretchWithOverflow="true" pattern="" isBlankWhenNull="false" evaluationTime="Now" hyperlinkType="None" > <reportElement

mode="Transparent"

x="0"

y="10"

width="30"

height="40"

forecolor="#000000"

backcolor="#FFFFFF"

positionType="FixRelativeToTop"

isPrintRepeatedValues="true"

isRemoveLineWhenBlank="false"

isPrintInFirstWholeBand="false"

isPrintWhenDetailOverflows="false"/>

<textElement textAlignment="Center" lineSpacing="Single">

<font fontName="font.ttf" pdfFontName="font.ttf" size="8" isBold="false" isItalic="false" isUnderline="false" isPdfEmbedded ="true" pdfEncoding ="Cp1251" isStrikeThrough="false" />

</textElement>

<textFieldExpression

class="java.lang.String">$P{STR}</textFieldExpression>

</textField>

 

 

Take a look at <font> element

I am still having symbols in wrone coding.

I tried different coding (UTF-8, windows-1251) but it didn't help.

 

My XML:

 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>

<!-- Created with iReport - A designer for JasperReports -->

<!DOCTYPE jasperReport PUBLIC "//JasperReports//DTD Report Design//EN" "http://jasperreports.sourceforge.net/dtds/jasperreport.dtd">

 

...

...

 

<reportFont name="Arial" isDefault="false" fontName="Arial" size="10" isBold="false" isItalic="false" isUnderline="false" isStrikeThrough="false" pdfFontName="External TTF font" pdfEncoding="Cp1251" isPdfEmbedded="true"/>

<parameter name="contNo" isForPrompting="true" class="java.lang.String"/>

<title>

<band height="178">

</textElement>

<textFieldExpression class="java.lang.String"><![CDATA["Iiia? aiaiai?╨░: " + $P{contNo}]]></textFieldExpression>
