Re: Report in PDF did not display some french character

Antoine,

First - I'd run the SQL query that the report utilizes manually and see if the DB is correctly returning the characters (it should). As long as that works, then the issue is with the Oracle Reports Server. In order for it to operate correctly, both your OS and Oracle Reports need to be setup correctly to interpret and display the extended characters. In past experience with customers in APAC - we found that this can be difficult if the Oracle Reports server is running on a platform other than Win32.

I'd recommend searching Metalink for known issues with Oracle Reports and extended character sets. I'd also appreciate any updates you can post to this thread, as you find more details.
