Special characters in the Caption/Abstract metadata field
Hi people,
in Germany, I was very pleased to find that most of the fields of metadata in Lightroom 3 supports special characters like accents and the so-called sharp S today. However, this applies only in the parts to the Caption/Abstract field. Then these special characters display correctly in Lightroom itself and are even written in the correct way DNG file (display correctly in Bridge and the Finder on Mac), they get lost when exported to JPEG (or other formats such as psd and tiff). Interestingly, most other areas (such as title/title and copyright, the same keywords) have not the same question. That's why I started wondering if there is a hidden setting somewhere that allows me to solve this problem, or if it is an acceptable workaround.
I am aware of the fact that most of you guys, who work professionally with Lightroom, don't not use special characters in metadata fields at all. However, since I will not send my photos to any photo agency but to publish on my (or my client) web galleries I really want theses characters display correctly. After all, there is a huge difference between the German words 'Mass' and 'mass '. So please, don't tell me I shouldn't use umlauts in my metadata - I already know, but cannot help him.
So far, I exported the photos in JPEG format and subsequently fixed the captions (in iPhoto, for example if the image was to be published on MobileMe Gallery). As I'm getting busier all the time, this procedure, however, is a bit outdated. Now, my question is: does anyone of you have an idea how can I challenge this special-character-loss-upon-export-problem or have a solution for this?
Thanks in advance and have a nice day.

Here's what I think is happening: called "Caption" in the metadata Panel in Lightroom is stored by the save metadata command in a file in two different metadata fields in the picture:
IPTC:caption - summary
XMP:description
Two of them are supported encoding of Unicode characters. When you export to JPEG, LR also stores the legend in a third field of metadata:
EXIF:ImageDescription
This field is not Unicode characters support - allows only 7-bit ASCII characters. LR cards silently non-ASCII to ASCII characters when it stores the legend here.
Many tools such as LR, bridge and Finder doesn't always clear as three metadata fields they you are showing. Tools should always show XMP:Description rather than EXIF:ImageDescription, but they aren't always.
I recommend getting the free Exiftool or ExiftoolGUI, which will show you with authority the content of all the different metadata fields.

Chips and other special characters in the App World descriptions
How is one makes chips and other special characters in the description of the app in the supplier portal? I see various descriptions app with chips so I know it's possible. I tried Googling the answer, but to no avail. Can someone point me to the documentation for it?
Thank you

I think it's just the Unicode text, so if you include these characters when you submit the form, they will display.
Your question is perhaps more on how to insert these characters into the HTML form. To do this, because I need it rarely, I didn't copy and paste of a website where I can find the required text. For example, Google for 'unicode ball' and you can find one of them on one of the first findings of the research, such as the Wikipedia article.
Some people probably have their systems set up to type Unicode directly from their keyboard, but I never got to determine the modern way to do this (and the last time I checked, years, Unicode in operating systems support was still largely missing).

Special characters in the classic report
Hello
I'm unable to display special characters in the classic report.
"For example""" is coming as ' '.
Is there a way to fix this?
It seems that use characterset "WE8ISO8859P15" is causing this issue, which is a single-byte character set and so unable to encode these characters.
Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Hi all
I am trying to remove special characters without the help of regular expressions.

Please show me the way.

How can I insert emoji or other special characters in a document using Adobe Acrobat Pro XI? I went to special characters from the Edit menu and may not understand how to insert the special character in the document.
He's not that kind of editor. You can use the characters in a font. If you can select a font with the emoji, which fits into the case, and then enter the characters, it can work.
This suggests that you try to do TOO MUCH with a PDF file. It is a common thing, but the message should be: everything simply because you can edit a PDF file, does not mean that it is the most effective way for you to do your job.

Hello. Can he the word pdf conversion to retain the original character of the special characters of the algorithm? the formulas have special mathematical symbols. Conversion them kept?
The equations are a problem. If the equation is text, you can be lucky if you have the fonts on your system. Most of the time I have try, the fonts in the equation are garbage. Expect to have to retype the equations and some special characters. Much also depends on the existence of the fonts on your system. Just in my experience, the equations are almost impossible to convert.

empty data file with special characters in the name
Hi all
I'm having a problem with an empty data file which is in recovery mode.
Before the following has been a success:
ALTER database create datafile 'fully_qualified_file_name' as 'fully_qualified_file_name ';
recover data file "fully_qualified_file_name";
ALTER database datafile 'fully_qualified_file_name' online;
But this time it does not work as I get an error:
ORA-01516: file nonexistent journal, data file, or temporary file
Using the file id does not work either.
When I created a record of control file I see the data file has special characters in the name:
' / oracle/PRD/112_64/dbs/PSPR3I ^? ^?'
Since it is empty, it would be possible to create the data file void anothr
using the:
ALTER database create datafile ' / oracle/PRD/112_64/dbs/PSPR3I ^? ^?'
as ' / oracle/PRD/spdata2/r3i_8/r3i.data8';
and then recover datafile 'fully_qualified_file_name ';
ALTER database datafile 'fully_qualified_file_name' online;

How to get the CAPTION of a field?
Hello
I try to get LEGEND/LABEL/DESCRIPTION of the TextField1 (what text user sees on the screen, saying "Account") with the below code but its does not work, pls let me know the syntax to get
var a;
var b
If (xfa.resolveNode ("(" VISITOR. PAGE 1. Subform1.TextField1") .rawValue == null) {}
a = xfa.resolveNode ("VISITOR. PAGE 1. Subform1.TextField1') .name;b = xfa.resolveNode ("VISITOR. PAGE 1. Subform1.TextField1') user.user;
{
App.Alert (b + "is a required field")
}}
Thank you
Hello
You can assign or check the value of the caption of a field using the: SOM.caption.value.text.value
If (TextField1.caption.value.text.value is 'Field1 text')
{
app.alert ("Hello World" "");
}This means that you can assign the caption to a variable.
In some cases, you will need to use the method resolveNode(), as required by the relative SOM and your naming objects. It is not necessary in many situations.
In addition, the attribute "name" of a field are available using the: SOM.name (I have not tried assigning a new value to the "name" attribute)
For what is an attribute user.user - I don't think they exist in xfa.
Good luck!

Special characters in the wrong Exif IFD0 (ImageDescription) export
Someone at - it having problems with special characters such as a, o, u, e, to?
I have a description of the image written to the IPTC section which Lightroom stores in EXIF too. Most GUI display the correct characters, but if you look at the Exif IFD0 part these characters are changed.
In the example, you see that the 'u' is missing in 'Innsbrücke' below.
You can see the original image here:
The following link shows how the extracted tag of EXIF (ImageDescription) gets poster:
Just to show that there is nothing wrong with the GUI, check after the example (not exported Image with LR3) which work perfectly well:
http://www.Hirst.ch/content/09%20Ferien/2008%20-%20Jordanien/2008%20-%20Jordanien%20-%2002 6. jpg
http://www.Hirst.ch/#/content/09%20Ferien/2008%20-%20Jordanien/2008%20-%20Jordanien%20-%20 026 jpg
Any help on getting these correct special characters in EXIF would be very much appreciated.
Thank you
It always resembles a UTF-8 conversion tank Latin problem.
Honestly, most former EXIF fields are not going to be able to handle characters-international, but what is stored there, and what is displayed in the interfaces will be highly contextual.
The plugin I mentioned can be used to standardize the metadata in order to minimize this problem.

How do I search for special characters in the Explorer?
I have a collection of 1000 + files in an FTP folder. The problem is that about 50 of them contain & symbols in their file names. I need to find and delete all the files containing the symbol '& '. I thought it should be easy enough to search for the symbol '&' File Explorer. However, in doing so, nothing happens. It returns all files. Is it possible to search for special characters like '&' in the file Explorer?
Type filename: * & in the Explorer search field, it finds all files where appears the & character in the file or file name extension.

Dreamweaver still encodes special characters in the URL - Bug?
6 Dreamweaver is still encoding my special characters when I enter a URL through the control panel AND press ENTER. When I paste the link in code view or just paste in the control panel link field without hitting Enter, no formatting occurs.
I the setting under Code Rewriting preferences set on "do not encode special characters", but without worrying reformatting occurs whenever I hit enter in the link field in the control panel.
For example:
The link I'm stick in is dynamic and has the value % DC %
If I just paste the link in the Control Panel then click elsewhere the link is defined, and no formatting occurs. If I stick in there, then press on the URL change to %u %
Is this a bug or I do something wrong?

Replace special characters in the FDF
Hello
I've looked everywhere and can't find the answer to this simple problem. I can handle javascript in an HTML environment using free scripts, but it is not so easy in a PDF form. I use Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro and I have a form that once completed and submitted, generates and sends a FDF file. I use a script on the server side, called FormGenie do this and the script hate parentheses and some other characters, they break the FDF file. Everything I want to do is set up a document level Javascript that find and replace all instances of these special characters with something license as a hyphen - or just a space.
I tried:
function clearText() {}
document. FormName.FieldName.Value = filterNum (document. FormName.FieldName.value)function filterNum (str) {}
re = /\$|#|~|\%|\*|\^|\(|\)|\+|\=|\[|\]|\[|\}|\{|\;|\"|\<|\>|\?| \|| \\|\!| \$/g;
remove special characters as ' $' and ',' etc...
return str.replace (re, "-");
}
}and
function clearText2 (str) {}
stringName = stringName.replace (/------$| #| ~ |------% |------* |------^ | \(|\) |--------+ |------= |------[|------] |------[{|------} |------{|------; |------"|"}]) ------< | ------> | \ ? | \|| \\|\!| \$ /g,'-');
}I know that these are not good, but I have to be at least barking to the top of the tree on the right.
Can anyone help?
Thank you
You create the form in Acrobat or LiveCycle Designer?
In general, you can place a script typo in the script of the text of each filter field field hit, in the case where something replacing the user typed with something else would not cause the concern of the user. An alternative would be to be implemented a script that parses the fields just before the submission form action takes place and not to replace them.
For example, you can use the following JavaScript typo customized for text fields created in Acrobat:
If (! event.willCommit) {}
Event.change = event.change.replace (/ [------$# ~ %------*------*------^ \ (\)------+=------[\]------{\};------"\<\>\?]) \ | \\\ !] /g, "-");
}
and it will replace these characters when the user types the data into a text field. May not include all the character you want replaced, but you should get the idea.
