JasperReport is great report tool. But I found that it can not print and show Chinese and Japanese through JasperViewer. But it can generate pdf with

Chinese and Japanese.

Below is a test sample for Traditional Chinese (CHT), Simpilfied Chinese (CHS) and Japanese (JP)which modified from unicode sample.

Testing steps:

1. copy SYSTEMFontsKaiu.ttf to demosamplesunicode

2. replace original UnicodeReport.xml with below modified one.

3. replace original UnicodeApp.java with below modified one.

It shows that JasperViewer (ant view) can dsiplay CHT, but can not display CHS and JP correctly under JasperReports-0.3.3 with iText-0.93b. If you click "print", the CHT fonts are a mass. However,

if you use "ant pdf", the generated pdf can show CHT, CHS and JP correctly!

Hope someone can fix this.

Hi,

"Discard prev message".

Does it mean that everything is OK for you now ?

Thank you,

Teodor

Yes, after a little modification of UnicodeReport.xml, everything works now :-)

The fontName should be "SimSun", "MS UI Gothic", "MS Gothic", etc for correct display and printing. Do not use "Monospaced" or "SansSerif" for Chinese and Japanese, because printing will be a block or a mass.

For Traditional-Chinese

For Simpilfied-Chinese

For Japanese

Below is tested-and-work sample codes (JasperReport-0.3.3 + iText-0.93b) , I suggest Teodor use these to replace original unicode sample code.

RE: Chinese problem

2002-11-13 07:35

I too, have a chinese problem! Looks like more of an Itext problem than a JR issue, but since I'm using JR...No matter which Asian pdfEncoding I use, I get the following message:

Report LBTester JR error

com.lowagie.text.DocumentException: UniCNS-UCS2-H

at com.lowagie.text.pdf.TrueTypeFont.<init>(Unknown Source)

at com.lowagie.text.pdf.BaseFont.createFont(Unknown Source)

Having reviewed the iText code, it seems like it should be using the CJKFont class rather than TrueType...but I can't get it to switch.

The text field that generates the error is

</reportElement>

<font fontName="STSongStd-Light" size="22" pdfFontName="C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 5.0\Resource\CIDFont\STSongStd-Light-Acro.otf"

pdfEncoding="UniCNS-UCS2-H" isPdfEmbedded="false"/>

</textElement>

" |?[ g t H I Ü‚ ÍŠ Ì‘I "

</textFieldExpression>

</textField>

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Chris

Your font name should be "STSongStd-Light". CJK otf fonts are not supported by iText.

Hi,

I'm now using iReport. I have 2 question.

1. How can I generate Chinese when they are data from database?

2. How can I get the unicode of a Chinese character?

Best Regards,

neltan
