Hi Songkrant,

In order to configure Thai fonts on SysAid, please download a Unicode Font for Thai characters from http://www.wazu.jp/gallery/Fonts_ChineseSimplified.html (Simplified Han Ideographs). Please download the appropriate ZIP FILE, extract the file and then rename it to ARIAL.TTF and place it in ...SysAidServer\root\WEB-INF\conf\fonts. After that, restart the SysAid Server service.

Please let us know which one of the Font fix your issue.

Best regards,
Itay

I had rename Garuda.ttf to replace ARIAL.TTF in /usr/local/tomcat/webapps/sysaid/WEB-INF/conf/fonts

Do you suggest to try one at a time rename all above fonts to be ARIAL.TTF and restart tomcat to check?

Hi Songkrant,

try to download and use COURMON.TTF from this site : http://software.thai.net/tis-620/courierthai.html

i hope it will work, but don't forget to stop the sysaid service before replacing the file and start it back again after that.

Best regards,

Using CATALINA_BASE: /usr/local/tomcat
Using CATALINA_HOME: /usr/local/tomcat
Using CATALINA_TMPDIR: /usr/local/tomcat/temp

สวัสดีครับ Sawasdee Krub,

You have to set your Internet browser to use encoding UTF-8 to post.

ตั้งค่า character encoding บนตัวเวปเบราเซอร์ใ้ห้เป็น UTF-8 ก่อนครับ แล้วค่อยพิมพ์ภาษาไทย ผมเข้าใจว่าค่าปริยายเป็น Thai (Windows) หรือไม่ก็ Thai (TIS) อยู่ครับ

Brgds,

Sawasdee krub Khun Itay,(Thai traditional greeting)

Thank you very much for your follow up.

It is still the issue. From the user portal, I Submit a Service Request and I correctly got my e-mail Ticket correctly in Thai and English.

But when I viewed my ticket in the View Your Service History, as you may see in the I still no not get the correct Thai reading but only the time and date were display in Thai correctly.

Any further instruction will be greatly appreciated.

I am stuck with this Thai character issue.

I hope that you will help me figure this out before my trial expired:
Your account psu_trial
Serial key for your account 71CF5547D9E789A7
Expiration Date 2010-01-24

My Boss want to have it work in Thai then he will give me the GO to buy SysAid Full Version.

Hi Songkrant,

I had been experienced the same issue with you in Chinese language environment. And it was already fixed.

You should check the configuration file for jdbc connection with database since the default coding is latin1, you should change it to utf-8 in order to display Thai charactors correctly.

For example if you are using mysql database on linux, you should exec the following command:

sudo vim /etc/mysql/my.cnf

and add the following two lines in mysqld file.

character_set_server=utf8
character_set_client=utf8

In one word, if the coding is set correctly(utf- with database, SysAid can display any language correctly.


The font type of Thai charactor printed in html page is controlled by css file instead of ARIAL.TTF file.


ARIAL.TTF is only used when you export data from SysAid to exteral file format, such as PDF, CSV or Excel. You should replace the original ARIAL.TTF with one of Thai font files for printing correct Thai language in PDF, CSV or Excel.

Thx,

Mshi

As this community have more English speaking, we better share our experience in English.

I test it on Windows XP PC. Just a quick and short test. Have no time to learn more...

Once you are using MySQL, could you please check what character set it use? Read more http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/charset-mysql.html

หากคุณใช้ MySQL ลองตรวจสอบว่าใช้ character set อะไรสำหรับ DB นะครับ อ่านเพิ่มเติม http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/charset-mysql.html

Dear Songkrant Muneenaem,

Thank you for contacting SysAid Support.

We have gone ahead and sent you in a separate email a Trial license as requested.
In SysAid Server the encoding is defined in My setting s and Account Defaults.
To find the encoding please login to PHP Admin and then you can see the collations of the encoding of the database.

You can receive the translations for free by login into our SysAid Community forum and search for the specific language.

Please let me know if that resolves your issue. If not, or you need further assistance, please don't hesitate to contact us. Your response will be highly appreciated.
