I have a Java project that connects to a C# program that prints Turkish words. Printing Turkish characters in C# using console is not causing any problems. However, the main issue is that when this C# program is called from Java, the Turkish characters are printed weirdly.
What I would like to do is to get the output printed on console and reprint it using Java GUI without having any problems with Turkish characters.
I really appreciate any kind of help.
Many thanks in advance
The issue is likely to be that the C# application is encoding its character data in one encoding while the Java application is decoding the data as another. Assuming Windows, it is possibly an ANSI/OEM mismatch.
You need to identify the encoding the C# application is emitting. In the Java application, read each byte and check its hex value. Check to see if the bytes are Windows-1254, OEM-857 or whatever and then decode them appropriately using a reader with the appropriate encoding.

I am new to JAVA. I wanted a JAVA code to convert a text file coming from Unix to a text file that goes to Linux server. So, its a character conversion code from UTF-16 TO UTF-8. The text file goes tthrough oracle database before it reaches linux server. I need this conversion because some special symbols are getting converted to garbage values. Please help Java Experts :)
If CSV file is encoded in ANSI, how to find out the encoding by reading the csv file in Java code. I'm working in a Java 1.6 setup.
Thanks in advance.
The encoding is not specified inside the file, it can often be guessed by trying to read the file as various encodings, but this has obvious problems.
It is a bit like guessing the language that someone is speaking, I can't distinguish between Flemish and Dutch, but I can understand a little of both because I can speak Afrikaans. The only way for me to know what language the person is speaking is to ask them.
I wrote a program that reads from a file has Arabic text encoded with ANSI.
I made a runnable jar of that program.
It run perfectly on my Laptop, however, when I run it on another laptop the Arabic characters turn into a messy symbols.
So what to do?
Make sure your end system is having the fonts required to display those letters if not bundle it with your application.
Check whether you are reading the file content UTF-8 (Or appropriate encoding format).
I am building an app that takes information from java and builds an excel spreadsheet. Some of the information contains international characters. I am having an issue when Russian characters, for example, are rendered correctly in Java, but when I send those characters to Excel, they are not rendered properly. I initially thought the issue was an encoding problem, but I am now thinking that the problem is simply not have the Russian language pack loaded on my Windows 7 machine.
I need to know if there is a way for a Java application to "force" Excel to show international characters.
Thanks
Check the file encoding you're using is characters don't show up. Java defaults to platform native encoding (Win-1252 for Windows) instead of UTF-8. You can explicitly set the writers to use UTF-8 or Cyrillic encoding.
I am currently working on a project with multiple languages we also have french, the only problem is that it displays weird characters, in stead of normal french,
Can some1 help me with this ( its in java )
thanks from beforehand
If you are using Resource bundles in the ".properties" format, then this issue can be resolved by escaping al the not standard characters with their respective Unicode notation.
.propertie resource bundles are always in ISO-8859-1 encoding, so most likely you problem comes from converting the ISO-8859-1 encoding to UTF-8
You can easily convert all these characters to escaped Unicode representation by using one of these tools: native2ascii or AnyEdit
using nonstandard characters in resource bundles
It has nothing to do with the font, but the encoding. I suggest you switch to UTF-8, a good standard for international characters.
Most likely this has nothing to do with fonts, and the real problem is an encoding issue.

Make sure your code uses the correct encoding whenever it converts between bytes and strings. Avoid the methods/constructors/classes that use the platform default encoding.
Please use Character Encoding Filers at server side this will resolve your issue
