Environment Variables
DEFAULT_DISPLAY=NO, imaging support is limited to GIF format for PDF output,
and HTML, HTMLCSS, and BMP for RTF output.
■ Printing on UNIX requires some setup and configuration to create the proper
printing environment. For detailed information, refer to Printing on UNIX with
Oracle Reports.
■ On UNIX, REPORTS_DEFAULT_DISPLAY = YES overrides any value set for the
DISPLAY environment variable.
■ To revert to the dependency on DISPLAY and use screen fonts:
■ Set REPORTS_DEFAULT_DISPLAY=NO
■ Remove the screenprinter.ppd entry in the uiscreenprint.txt file.
B.1.40 REPORTS_DEFAULT_PIXEL_SIZE
Description This environment variable specifies a pixel size that overrides the
operating system’s default pixel size when generating a report to HTML output.
Normally, Oracle Reports takes its pixel size from the operating system. If you are
working with older reports that rely upon a pixel size that is different from that of the
operating system (for example, a pixel size of 80), you can use this variable to maintain
the same behavior in your older reports.
Valid Values Any value ranging from 72 through 200.
Default Surface resolution determined by Oracle Reports.
Usage Notes
■ For Windows, REPORTS_DEFAULT_PIXEL_SIZE is set in the registry. For UNIX,
it is set from the command prompt or in a shell script.
■ If REPORTS_DEFAULT_DISPLAY = YES (default), Oracle Reports still uses the
value specified for REPORTS_DEFAULT_PIXEL_SIZE for HTML output.
However, if a value is not explicitly set for REPORTS_DEFAULT_PIXEL_SIZE , the
surface resolution is can be controlled with the entry in the screenprinter.ppd
file, as described in Printing on UNIX with Oracle Reports.
B.1.41 REPORTS_ENCRYPTION_KEY *
Description This environment variable specifies the encryption key used to encrypt
the user name and password.
Valid Values Any encryption key
Default reports9.0
Usage Note
This environment variable is supported in Oracle Reports for backward compatibility
for Common Gateway Interface (CGI) reports, or when Single Sign-On is not used.
Note: The functionality of JavaServer Pages (JSPs) or servlets
replaces support for CGI.
