Thank You

You can find these notes in SDN, just search the numbers.

You just have to change the original language into Arabic (what says the note(s)).

Store "plain" in its own window. As it is less than 30 characters, it should be written from LTR without any problem.

HI,

not solved completely i think we have to create a paragraph format i think so in zstyle, so if u got the information then plz help me fine.

Thank You

MSA.

[Sandra_Rossi]

paragraph format is not related to your last question about "nialp". I think that the problem with "nialp" is explained in note 822634, you should send a variable or text of less than 30 characters.

Could you give us a feedback on that?

Could you explain what problem you have with paragraph format?

Hi,

This one is a very easy task..

You need to create two pages FIRST and NEXT. First for English and NEXT for Arabic.

Now design these two pages by putting your required windows and the text you want to print in.

Make the page attributes to Duplex in attributes as show in the link.

[Setting Duplex in Sapscript|http://i678.photobucket.com/albums/vv145/avinashkodarapu/Snap1-4.jpg]

This will print back to back in a single paper.

I think your major issue is solved, rest stuff you can sail through easily.

Take Care

Hi,

In unicode you can combine any set of languages at one place.

Just see: مرحبا喂 हैलो are 3 different languages ar one place.

It works..

[Former Member]

Hi,

Ajay, i just check in my system that it is a unicode system, and we added the software in arabic lang and i'm typing text in arabic in SO10 but with arabic i added numbers so in the output i'm getting numbers but not arabic text so plz help me and if possible explain in steps dear.

Thanks

Hello,

Absolutely great that your system is a Unicode system. So you can do as following.

1. Type in the text in Unicode encoding. I am not sure the software which you are using to type in Arabic is supporting Unicode.

So just to test whether it supports Unicode try copying the Arabic text in notepad/word and check whether those words are copied properly or not. If yes then go ahead keeping them in the SO10 Object.

If the Arabic text are rendered as boxes or question mark then the problem is with your typing software.

2. After keeping the text in the SO10. You can print it by normal include command in the script.

If you are still not able to print them then you need to check the printer configuration with help of SPAD transaction.

Just ensure the printer character set in Attributes Tab is 4110 and UTF-8 encoding. If not then contact your basis team to change these settings.

Try it and do let me know.

Cheers

Hi ajay,

can you plz tell me about unicode and nonunicode what is that and also i'm entering the arabic words in SO10 by typing the keyboard in arabic text (converting) , so what should i do now and also in some windows i have to print the address in arabic by coding so plz help me and also help me in solving this issue.

Thanks

Hi,

Unicode is a global encoding standard which helps in storing, exchanging and sending text data in any language across all information technology protocol..

How to check whether your system is Unicode or not : Goto to systems->status. You will find a field with Unicode Yes or No.

And Can you please explain how exactly your are "typing the keyboard in arabic text (converting)". using any software/font/codepage.

Just ensure that the code page which you are using to type in is used while rendering and printing these Arabic text..

For a full proof solution SAP highly recommends to use Unicode System.

Kindly get back with these details this would help me to recommend you the best solution.

Hi

if you create standard texts u will get code page error...a also face same p[roblem for Japanese..

Do one thing Suppose if u r creating PO We have one FM in driver program me_print_po there we can check based on company code we can execute the form.we have NAST structure we can find there,,,

second thing sap script form is dependent ..create form for eg Zsap...with this form u can create N no.of layouts...

For ur req create one in english and one in arabic...and give the correct font for arabic..while creating the from itself give the language..

[Former Member]

Hi ajay,

yes i worked with giving ST LANGUAGE as arabic AR but it is not working but with that arabic text i have given numbers so the numbers are displaying but text is not displaying so please help me about this n explain in detail with steps so that it can be easily applicable for me.

Thanks,

MSA.

Hi MSA,

It clearly seems to be a code page issue. You will be able to see numbers and common English alphabets as this would be available in all the code pages.

I want some info about the system whether it is Unicode or non Unicode and how are you entering Arabic words in SO10 especially the code page.

The issue of rendering Arabic words is only due to code page mismatch due to these reasons only Unicode came into existence.

hi

Check out whether the Address is maintainedin Arabic also ,if so get the fields and use the FONT that u have defined for arabic and print , its only the FONT assignement check.

Hi MSA,

As you have not mentioned the configuration and type of system (unicode/non-unicode). There will be two cases for printing Arabic in script.

CASE 1: Unicode system: If your system is a unicode system , you can create SO10 object and put in the required Arabic character in Unicode (Address) in it and include it in your sapscript by

/:INCLUDE mytext OBJECT TEXT ID ST where mytext is the standard text name

CASE 2: Non Unicode system: you need to take care of code page you use before including the SO10 standard text in script.

first you need to identify the code page you are going to use and then either you can change the code page by SET COUNTRY before call or addition of Language field.

Like

/:INCLUDE mytext OBJECT TEXT ID ST LANGUAGE EN Arabic in your case instead of EN.

Get back in case of any other queries.
