How to convert Dynamic English text to Chinese on Adobe forms?

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

I am developing a Form which has both Chinese and English characters.

At run time I wan to calculate the total value of line items and also get the wordings for the same.

Suppose :

"Twenty Eight Thousand one hundred and ninety one"

The wordings part I am able to manage with the help of Formcalc "WORDNUM", but my challenge is I want this text to be in CHINESE.

Is there a way to get it done in Adobe?

Any help will be highly appreciated and rewarded.

There is no way to do it directly in PDF.

If you check the document for WORNUM

WordNum(n1 [, n2 [, k ]])

the k should be the language you choose.

Example; WorNum( 125.20 , 0 , zh_HK )

For Chinese, use

Chinese	People's Republic of China (Simplified)	zh_CN
Chinese	Hong Kong S.A.R., China	zh_HK
Chinese	Taiwan (Traditional)	zh_TW

But for

As of this release, it is not possible to specify a locale identifier other than English for this function.livecycle 9.0

So Try a workaround by calculating the amount with SPELL_AMOUNT_CN as suggested by Abhishek Bhusa

Hope that help

Hi Experts,

Have I framed the question wrongly?

OR

There is no possible way to do it in Adobe Forms?

In that case i have to use "SPELL_AMOUNT_CN" function module, do the processing in ABAP and then send the converted text to the Form.

Is this the only way out?

Waiting for some info on this.

Thanks in advance.
