How to get unicode from data?

2002-12-02 01:59

Hi,

Chinese in PDF is ok when hardcode something like "u9700".

However, when data in Chinese character can't display correctly.

Here is my xml. Would you please tell what's wrong with that?

 

XML Header set to

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?>

Field text which show Chinese is here

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

<font fontName="kaiu.ttf" pdfFontName="kaiu.ttf" size="12" isBold="false" isItalic="false" isUnderline="false" isPdfEmbedded ="false" pdfEncoding ="Cp1250" isStrikeThrough="false" />

</textElement>

<textFieldExpression class="java.lang.String">$F{name}</textFieldExpression>

RE: How to get unicode from data?

2002-12-02 02:01

Somebody said this can solve.

But I don't know how to "getByte" in the XML.

Can this code get the unicode from data source??

 

String lastName1 = request.getParameter("lastname");

String firstName,lastName;

lastName = new String(lastName1.getBytes("8859_1"),"GBK");
