This section outlines the steps involved in generating a PDF file with a Unicode character set. Before using the font features covered in this section, refer to Table 11-4 to determine which feature best suits your application needs.
The steps involved in generating a Unicode PDF file using the font subsetting feature are as follows:
Set NLS_LANG=AMERICAN_AMERICA.UTF8
.
Set REPORTS_PATH
to the font directory in which the TrueType font exists. For example, C:\WINNT\fonts
.
Open the uifont.ali
file and edit the [PDF:Subset]
section to specify the TrueType font name.
Note:
Theuifont.ali
file is located in the following directory on Windows and UNIX:
ORACLE_INSTANCE
\config\FRComponent\frcommon\guicommon\tk\admin
Example
[ PDF:Subset ] "Andale Duospace WT J" = "Aduoj.ttf" "Albany WT J"="AlbanWTJ.ttf"
The specified font should cover the Unicode range that your report uses.
Create a report having MLS data and set its font to the Unicode font.
Run a report having MLS
data with DESTYPE=FILE DESFORMAT=PDF
