ZHANWIN device type does not print Korean characters

Former Member

Hi All,

We are trying to print smart forms containing Chinese,Taiwanese and Korean characters from our ECC 6.0

As per SAP Note 1038413 - Unicode SAPWIN device type for CJK fon, we used the device type ZHANWIN to print smart forms for these characters.

But with this device type we are unable to print smart forms with Korean characters. But as per the note, it has to support Korean characters too.

Please help with this issue.

Thanks and Regards,

Subashree

Hi Subashree,

it is likely that the problem with ZHANWIN is related to the font used in the form. if you want to print Korean characters via ZHANWIN, you need to specify a Korean font like KPBATANG for the Korean characters in the form. Then this will be mapped to a suitable windows font in windows. If you chosse e.g font COURIER , it is mapped to windosw font Courier New which does nto contain the Korean characters.

For SWINCF or SWINCFCK the font in SAP is not so impertant. The mapping of the characters in windows is based on the Unicode character range. So as Nils said, SWINCFCK should work regardless of the font in the SAP form.

Hi,

The print preview look fine. Only in print out, the Korean characters are replaced with [] [] [] [].

Thanks and Regards,

Hi,

did you already try device type SWINCFK (according to SAP note 812821) to check whether the used device type is the problem ?
