How to render Chinese characters in OFBiz PDF reports?
Hi all,
I know this is not probably an OFBiz related issue but I know that we
have several Chinese users and maybe this can be of interest for others...
I'm having issues displaying Chinese characters in the OFBiz PDF reports
(invoice, order etc...) created with xsl-fo: they appear as '####'.
I did some research in the Internet and the problem seems related to the
font family used that doesn't include the Chinese fonts.
I have tried to set a different font-family in the template's fo:root
element, but unfortunately I couldn't find a font family that supports
the Chinese characters (e.g. I've tried with Arial in an Ubuntu box).
I've also found some instructions on how to generate an ad-hoc xml file
with the necessary font family description, to be embedded in the pdf
reports by FOP... but the steps were not very clear to me (especially,
how to map them to the OFBiz framework).
Any hints on how I can solve this issue?
Thanks!
Jacopo

sounds like something in the pdf code is effecting what it put in the
output file.
I did a google on
pdf output not chinesses
there are hits that explain this bug

there can be many things that effect this.
first is if they pdf is creating the correct code-set for the character.
Second is if the Language is selected for the OS.
third is if the fonts sets that support that language are loaded.

Oleg,
thanks for all the valuable information.
I've finally managed to make it work using the SimHei font; it doesn't
work with the Arial font.
I really don't know why but for now it is perfectly fine for me to use
the SimHei font.
Thanks!

Jacopo,
Currently I have no own suggestions but let me attract your attention to
these quotations:
6.2. Some characters are not displayed, or displayed incorrectly, or
displayed as “#”.
This usually means the selected font doesn't have a glyph for the
character. The standard text fonts supplied with Acrobat Reader have
mostly glyphs for characters from the ISO Latin 1 character set. For a
variety of reasons, even those are not completely guaranteed to work,
for example you can't use the fi ligature from the standard serif font.
Check the overview for the default PDF fonts.
If you use your own fonts, the font must have a glyph for the desired
character. Furthermore the font must be available on the machine where
the PDF is viewed or it must have been embedded in the PDF file. See
embedding fonts.
For most symbols, it is better to select the symbol font explicitely,
for example in order to get the symbol for the mathematical empty set,
write:
<fo:inline font-family="Symbol">∅</fo:inline>
The "#" shows up if the selected font does not define a glyph for the
required character, for example if you try:
<fo:inline font-family="Helvetica">∅</fo:inline>
and
The "Symbol" and "ZapfDingbats" fonts, however, currently present a
problem because FOP cannot correctly determine the encoding of
these two single-byte fonts through the PFM file. FOP now correctly
interprets the "encoding" value in the XML font metrics file, but the
PFMReader application writes "UnknownEncoding" to the generated XML
file. In order to embed "Symbol" and "ZapfDingbats" you have to
manually change the XML font metrics file and specify "SymbolEncoding"
or "ZapfdingbatsEncoding" encoding respectively as the value for the
"encoding" element.
Example:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<font-metrics type="TYPE1">
<font-name>Symbol</font-name>
<embed/>
<encoding>SymbolEncoding</encoding>
<cap-height>673</cap-height>
<x-height>766</x-height>
I will try reproduce this problem and work on it but I really don't know
when.

Re: How to configure OFBiz with Apache Web Server or Application Server

Well the virtual host bit of the config file read:-
GNU nano 2.0.6
File: /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/haddenham.dga.co.uk
<VirtualHost *>
LogLevel debug
ProxyPreserveHost On
<Location /ofbiz >
ProxyPass ajp://10.0.1.2:8009/
ProxyPassReverse http://haddenham.dga.co.uk/ofbiz

Dav On
AuthType Digest
AuthName "Nick WebDAV"
AuthDigestDomain /nick-webdav/
AuthDigestProvider file
AuthUserFile /home/nick/htdigest
Require valid-user
</Location>
</VirtualHost>
There are some other <Location> tags, but they are not in a
VirtualHost tag. Perhaps they should be?

It looks your virtual host is default virtual host and it is serving all

Re: How to configure OFBiz with Apache Web Server or Application Server
Posted by David Goodenough <da...@linkchoose.co.uk>.
Raj,
Well actually I am trying to STOP it from serving the images locally, but
rather to pass the request on in the same way that it passes on all the
other requests. My Ofbiz server is on another machine so I want everything
passed on to that machine.
My <Location> tag for ofbiz is <Location /ofbiz/> and all the rest have
their own <Location> tags, and none of them mention ofbiz. As it happens
all the rest are local apps (apt-cacher, trac etc). There is also not
a directory called /var/www/ofbiz.

Re: How to configure OFBiz with Apache Web Server or Application
Server
Posted by Raj Saini <ra...@gmail.com>.
David,
Apache would get confused and it is how this works. If you want Apache
not to confuse, and want your images to be served without going through
AJP, change your DocumentRoot of virtual host accordingly. For example
instead of using DocumentRoot as /var/www/, point it to the base of
images web application i.e. ${ofbiz_installdir}/framework/images/webapp.
Apache will server images from this folder.
You can not have a ProxyPass mount point as well as a file or folder
with same name in your document root.
Thanks,
Raj
Only way you can get

Re: How to configure OFBiz with Apache Web Server or Application Server

Not yet, I want to test it before (on Windows and Linux) but there are always more important things to do...

RE: Quantity discount pricing
Posted by "skip@theDevers" <sk...@thedevers.org>.
They are not random. Mostly like < 10 = list, 10 - 50 = price y, 51+ = price
z, and then a few odd balls. However, I am betting that the resulting price
breaks are based on an underlying percentage. I am importing price1 - 3,
and qty1 - qty3.
List, y and z vary greatly from one product to the next.
Too bad it's not a fixed percentage, that would be pretty easy.
More importantly, I have to import these prices into Ofbiz along with my
inventory import, so it would be helpful to know the entities involved.
I was thinking of adding a fromQty and thruQty to PriceRule. That would
make it dead simple. Alternatively, I could add a QuantityBreak entity
similiar to page 88 of the Data Model Resource Book, but it seems sensless
to create a whole new entity when two fields in ProductPrice would do it.

I'm guessing Price Rules could work. Are the quantity breaks random, or is
logical? I mean 1-5qty Full Price, 6-9qty 10% off, 10 or more 15% off?
Or is it more insane like productId A is 1-5, productId B is 1-3? Z 1-500?
Even if appears random, is there some sort of pattern from which you could
create groups (Product Classifications)?
Product Classifications can be your friend. We have thousands of Product
Classifications, yet only a handful of price rules.
In case you didn't realize it price rules add together, and you may have to
create offseting rules to get the price where you want it.

RE: Stumped on a complicated question
Posted by Skip <sk...@thedevers.org>.
For those of you who are interested in this low level stuff, here is a
solution to the classpath issue. If anyone wants ClassPathUpdate class,
just shoot me an email:
public class main
{
public main(String[] args)
{
ClassLoader loader = ClassLoader.getSystemClassLoader();
if(loader instanceof URLClassLoader)
{
//For convenience so we don't have to cast everything
URLClassLoader urlLoader = (URLClassLoader)loader;
//Get the existing jars in the class path and show them
URL [] urls = urlLoader.getURLs();
showUrls(urls, "Before");
System.out.println("Trying to add url
C:\\jdk1.5\\jre\\lib\\ext.sav\\servlet.jar");
try
{
//Add a new one
ClassPathUpdater.addFile("C:\\jdk1.5\\jre\\lib\\ext.sav\\servlet.jar",
urlLoader);
System.out.println("!!!!!Success");
//Show the results after
urls = urlLoader.getURLs();
showUrls(urls, "\nAfter");
}
catch(Exception e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
else
{
System.out.println(loader.getClass().getName() + " is not a
URLClassLoader");
}
}
....
And here is the results of the run, Note that the added file "servlet.jar"
is now in the classpath in the "After" block:
...test>java -cp test.jar main
Before, Got 1 URLs = :
URL[0] = file:/D:/JavaProjects/ClassLoader/test/test.jar
Trying to add url C:\jdk1.5\jre\lib\ext.sav\servlet.jar
!!!!!Success
After, Got 2 URLs = :
URL[0] = file:/D:/JavaProjects/ClassLoader/test/test.jar
URL[1] = file:/C:/jdk1.5/jre/lib/ext.sav/servlet.jar

I'll check this, but I think I have figured out a way. The classloader of
the thread that instantiates my container has the necessary url's. However,
because this is a java -jar startup, classpath is ignored by the default
classloader.
So, (I think), all I gotta do is call ClassLoader.getURLs() from the Ofbiz
thread, save them away, then call addURL(URL url) on the gui thread to add
them in. I know addURL(URL url) is protected, but I am pretty sure I know
how to get around that. Unfortunately, I am at my main job now and cant try
it out. Can't wait to get home to give it a go.

Yep, I gathered that. Note that the class loader is retrieved with:
ClassLoader loader = Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader();
I am guessing that the GUI thread does not have the application classpath.
The question is, how to give it. At runtime, I know exactly where all these
jar file are.

Stumped on a complicated question
Posted by "skip@theDevers" <sk...@thedevers.org>.
I am getting the following error:
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException:
org.ofbiz.service.engine.StandardJavaEngine
On this line 81 of
org.ofbiz.service.engine.GenericEngineFactory.getGenericEngine:
Class c = loader.loadClass(className);
I am running ofbiz as a standalone app, similiar to java ofbiz.jar -pos
I don't get this problem when I run Ofbiz normally using the same "login"
service.
Somehow, it appears as if ofbiz-service.jar is not on the class path or
cannot be accessed. I even went so far as to copy it into my lib directory
with my jar file where it is referenced by my ofbiz-component.xml as:
<classpath type="jar" location="dist/*"/>
<classpath type="jar" location="dist/lib/*"/>
No joy. I am referencing lots of other Ofbiz jar files and they all load
just fine, for example ofbiz-base.jar, ofbiz-security.jar, and
ofbiz-party.jar. For some reason, the class loader will not load the
service engine. I only get a problem when I try to call a service with
"dispatcher.runSync()". I have been successfully reading and writing the
the database via GenericDelegator without problem. Just when I try to run a
service.
This is running under windows, jdk 1.5 and the Ofbiz version of a week ago.
For completeness, here is my containers.xml file:
<ofbiz-containers xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

I'm guessing Price Rules could work. Are the quantity breaks random, or is
logical? I mean 1-5qty Full Price, 6-9qty 10% off, 10 or more 15% off?
Or is it more insane like productId A is 1-5, productId B is 1-3? Z 1-500?
Even if appears random, is there some sort of pattern from which you could
create groups (Product Classifications)?
Product Classifications can be your friend. We have thousands of Product
Classifications, yet only a handful of price rules.
In case you didn't realize it price rules add together, and you may have to
create offseting rules to get the price where you want it.

Quantity discount pricing
Posted by "skip@theDevers" <sk...@thedevers.org>.
Can someone tell me how to implement quantity price breaks? I somehow
thought there a "minOrderQuantity" field and "QTY_DISCOUNT_PRICE", and
"QTY_DISCOUNT_PERCENTAGE" productPriceTypeIds, in ProductPrice, but I can't
seem to find them now.
I am looking in PriceServices.java and there seems to be some support for
quantity breaks using ProductPriceRule, but because
"optimizeForLargeRuleSet" is hardcoded "false" with no way to change it, it
looks to me like it will be impossibly slow because EVERY product for the
current customer has two price breaks (thats a total of 140,000+ price rules
to sort through).
Can someone offer guidance or should I modify ProductPrice to suite my needs
and hope that you guys will roll it back in.

Re: How to configure OFBiz with Apache Web Server or Application Server
Posted by David Goodenough <da...@linkchoose.co.uk>.
Did you manage to put it in your FAQ, and is there a URL to that FAQ?
I am having problem in that this Apache Web server is also serving a number
of other (non Java) things, and when I try to add this ProxyPass it gets
confused with the /image files, and tries to get them from /var/www/images
which of course does not work. I tried moving the ProxyPass stuff to the
front of the VirtualHost, but that made no difference.

Hi Mathius,
You will need to fine tune your settings in the url.properties file.
For ecommerce, you can do that in the web site under content tab.

Re: How to configure OFBiz with Apache Web Server or Application Server
Posted by Mathius Allo <mg...@yahoo.com>.
Hi Raj,
I have tried to configure it using mod_proxy_ajp. The only changes that I made is to add the following line into proxy_ajp.conf under /etc/httpd/conf.d/ (i'm using FC5):
LoadModule proxy_ajp_module modules/mod_proxy_ajp.so
ProxyPass / ajp://localhost:8009
This seems to be working for non-ssl. I can access my module in the following:
http://www.mallo.com/customer/
apache & tomcat access_log indicates that everything is ok.
However, when trying to access modules that require ssl port ":8443" appears automatically the URL (https://www.mallo.com:8443/project/control/main) and I noticed the following in the apache access_log:
192.168.1.65 - - [18/Aug/2007:20:49:13 +0800] "GET /project/control/main?externalLoginKey=EL994157896198 HTTP/1.1" 302 - "http://www.mallo.com/customer/control/editCustomer?customerId=10000" "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.1.3) Gecko/20070417 Fedora/2.0.0.3-4.fc7 Firefox/2.0.0.3"
After the above message, accessing non-ssl module does not seems to go through apache (even though I don't see :8080 in the URL) as I don't see any entry in the apache access_log.
Any idea on how to make it work for https?
Thanks,
Mathius Allo

You will need to enable proxy for httpd and mod_proxy_ajp within your
virtual hosts. I am doing it Debian way. For a standard httpd.conf
following should work:
1. Enable mod_proxy and mod_proxy_ajp modules in the Apache.
2. Somewhere in the global part of httpd.conf
--------------------------------------------------
#turning ProxyRequests on and allowing proxying from all may allow
#spammers to use your proxy to send email.
ProxyRequests Off
AddDefaultCharset off
Order deny,allow
Allow from all
#Allow from .example.com
# Enable/disable the handling of HTTP/1.1 "Via:" headers.
# ("Full" adds the server version; "Block" removes all outgoing
Via: headers)
# Set to one of: Off | On | Full | Block
ProxyVia On
3. Inside your virtual host config
-----------------------------------
ProxyPreserveHost On
proxyPass / ajp://localhost:8009/
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^/(images/.+);jsessionid=\w+$ /$1
That is it you need to make it work.

Yes, I have configured our Ofbiz + Apache HTTP 2.2 with mod_ajp_proxy.
You will need to enable proxy for httpd and mod_proxy_ajp within your
virtual hosts. I am doing it Debian way. For a standard httpd.conf
following should work:
1. Enable mod_proxy and mod_proxy_ajp modules in the Apache.
2. Somewhere in the global part of httpd.conf
--------------------------------------------------
#turning ProxyRequests on and allowing proxying from all may allow
#spammers to use your proxy to send email.
ProxyRequests Off
<Proxy *>
AddDefaultCharset off
Order deny,allow
Allow from all
#Allow from .example.com
</Proxy>
# Enable/disable the handling of HTTP/1.1 "Via:" headers.
# ("Full" adds the server version; "Block" removes all outgoing
Via: headers)
# Set to one of: Off | On | Full | Block
ProxyVia On
3. Inside your virtual host config
-----------------------------------
ProxyPreserveHost On
proxyPass / ajp://localhost:8009/
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^/(images/.+);jsessionid=\w+$ /$1
That is it you need to make it work.

Yes, it is possible. You can use the *mod_jk* Tomcat-Apache plug-in that
handles the communication between Tomcat and Apache. You can refer the link
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-3.3-doc/mod_jk-howto.html
This way you can route request to the web container.

Re: How to render Chinese characters in OFBiz PDF reports?
Posted by Jacopo Cappellato <ti...@sastau.it>.
Oleg,
first of all, thanks for your notes.
I did what you have suggested (even if I just created the "normal" Arial
font metrics, not the ones for bold and italics); now I can see in the
PDF two small boxes instead of the ## characters... unfortunately I
still can't see ideograms :-(
Do you have any ideas about this issue?

Of course. Currently Ofbiz printing subsystem doesn't work if document
uses any charsets out Latin-1. (May be work for localized readers).

I was searching in Google and seen many links to free Chinese fonts but
if you will try use font-family that have required characters the result
will be the same. You have to embed used fonts to pdf.

Steps below apply to cyrillic fonts, but I hope Chinese too.
1. Create FOP config file. Ready for use one attached to
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-1110.
2. Create font metrics for given font.
(http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/0.93/fonts.html)
3. Place fonts and metrics to framework/widget/config
4. Add to fop.xconf font triplets
Example from my config
<renderer mime="application/pdf">
<fonts>
<font metrics-url="arial.xml" kerning="yes" embed-url="arial.ttf">
<font-triplet name="Arial" style="normal" weight="normal"/>
<font-triplet name="ArialMT" style="normal" weight="normal"/>
</font>
<font metrics-url="arialbd.xml" kerning="yes" embed-url="arialbd.ttf">
<font-triplet name="Arial" style="normal" weight="bold"/>
<font-triplet name="ArialMT" style="normal" weight="bold"/>
</font>
<font metrics-url="ariali.xml" kerning="yes" embed-url="ariali.ttf">
<font-triplet name="Arial" style="italic" weight="normal"/>
<font-triplet name="ArialMT" style="italic" weight="normal"/>
</font>
<font metrics-url="arialbi.xml" kerning="yes" embed-url="arialbi.ttf">
<font-triplet name="Arial" style="italic" weight="bold"/>
<font-triplet name="ArialMT" style="italic" weight="bold"/>
</font>
</fonts>
</renderer>
5. Modify fo.ftl to use font-family="Arial"
