problem in printing Chinese Form

[Former Member]

Hellos,

There is a sapscript which is printed in multiple languages. when I try to take a print out in ZH (Chinese) language, although it shows correct print preview, but on on the paper, some of the fields are printed as garbage characters. majority of the form is printed correctly in chinese language.

I have checked the control panel settings, SPAD settings, Font settings and multi code settings and everything seems to be correct.

Please help

Thanks

Hello,

Perhaps this is simply a problem with the Sapscript buffers. You can

run the report RSTXDELL on the system to clear the Sapscript buffers.

It is a good idea to do the refresh procedures after any updates

concerning font metrics, device types etc...

To do this you can use RSTXDELL report with default settings except it

is better to have * instead of the current client number in the Client

field.

After this can you please create some new spools and the problem should

be resolved. It will not work to reprint an old spool as the contained

data is already incorrect.

Hi,

Here is the solution provided by SAP for something same problem.

Please check the OSS Note 4367. I think it will help you. So Implement it.

Symptom

Key word:  Character sets
When printing/displaying documents with SAPscript (form print from the applications), 
certain special characters are not displayed, but instead replaced by the number key (#).
This is already displayed in the hex. display of the spool data in SP01.

Additional key words

SAPscript, character set, codepage, AFM, fontmetrics, device type

Cause and prerequisites

When editing the documents, SAPscript compares the characters that can be displayed on the output device; 
in the process, certain characters are replaced by the number sign.  There are two reasons why a character 
cannot be displayed and is replaced by the number key:


1. For the used text language the character is not contained in the R/3 system character set. The NLS function "SCP_CODEPAGE_FOR_LANGUAGE" determines a character set for each text or layout 
set language that is used by SAP for the output of texts in this language.
Example (UNIX/NT platforms):
1100  ISO 8859-1    DE,EN,FR       German, English, French, and so on
1400  ISO 8859-2    PL             Polish and so on
1500  ISO 8859-5    RU             Russian and so on
1610  ISO 8859-9    TR            Turkish
1700  ISO 8859-7    EL            Greek
1802  ISO 8859-8    HE            Hebrew
8000  ISO Shift-JIS JA            Japanese
8300  ISO Big5      ZF             Chinese trad.
8400  ISO GB2312    ZH            Chinese
8500  ISO KSC5601   KO            Korean
8600  ISO TIS620-2529 TH          Thai

Regs,

Lokesh.
