If you just need to have the Arabic text written in the HTML document begin generated, I think the simplest way is to convert the sequence to character references, turning e.g. 0645 to م. This could be done as follows:
<?php
$str = '06450631062D06280627';
for($i = 0; $i < strlen($str)/4; $i++) {
echo "&#x", substr($str, 4*$i, 4), ";";
}
?>
I get a unicode string with following code.
$str = "Some Hexa String";
$replacedString = preg_replace("/\\\\u([0-9abcdef]{4})/", "&#x$1;", $str);
$unicodeString = mb_convert_encoding($replacedString, 'UTF-8', 'HTML-ENTITIES');
bin2hex($str); // Bin to Hex
pack("H*", $hexStr); // Hex to Bin

I use an online sms service (Clickatell) for a web app i use. My main language is Greek, so i need to convert in my php file the sms text to UTF-16BE before i send it. For example i need to convert the text
"Το ραντεβού σας έχει μεταφερθεί στις 12-12-2016 και ώρα 18:25"
to
03a403bf002003c103b103bd03c403b503b203bf03cd002003c303b103c2002003ad03c703b503b9002003bc03b503c403b103c603b503c103b803b503af002003c303c403b903c2002000310032002d00310032002d0032003000310036002003ba03b103b9002003ce03c103b1002000310038003a00320035
I need to conver everything inluding spaces, symbols and numbers.
I have found a few php commands but they are converting only the text.
$text=strtoupper(str_replace(array('"', '\u'), array('',''), json_encode('Το ραντεβού σας έχει μεταφερθεί στις 12-12-2016 και ώρα 18:25')));
When using the above code I get the below result:
03A403BF 03C103B103BD03C403B503B203BF03CD 03C303B103C2 03AD03C703B503B9 03BC03B503C403B103C603B503C103B803B503AF 03C303C403B903C2 12-12-2016 03BA03B103B9 03CE03C103B1 18:25
If you notice the date and time as well as all the spaces are not in unicode.
Can anyone tell me how to get my whole phrase in unicode? How can i do this with php?
Thank you in advance
I'm not sure what you mean by "they are converting only the text", but if you're looking to convert a UTF-8 string to UTF-16BE, then you can try:
iconv('UTF-8', 'UTF-16BE', $string);
or..
mb_convert_encoding($string, 'UTF-16BE', 'UTF-8');
Edit:
Since you've shared some code now, your technique for conversion is not sound, unless you really want it represented like you have it. Your result is basically a hex representation of the individual bytes, but not the bytes themselves.
Edit 2:
If you genuinely need it in the format specified, the following will do it for you:
$string = iconv('UTF-8', 'UTF-16BE', $string); // .. or mb_convert_encoding
$converted = '';
for ($i = 0; $i < strlen($string); $i++) {
$converted .= sprintf('%02X', ord($string[$i]));
}
I use this table of Emoji and try this code:
<?php print json_decode('"\u2600"'); // This convert to ☀ (black sun with rays) ?>
If I try to convert this \u1F600 (grinning face) through json_decode, I see this symbol — ὠ0.
Whats wrong? How to get right Emoji?
PHP 5
JSON's \u can only handle one UTF-16 code unit at a time, so you need to write the surrogate pair instead. For U+1F600 this is \uD83D\uDE00, which works:
echo json_decode('"\uD83D\uDE00"');
😀
PHP 7
You now no longer need to use json_decode and can just use the \u and the unicode literal:
echo "\u{1F30F}";
🌏
In addition to the answer of Tino, I'd like to add code to convert hexadecimal code like 0x1F63C to a unicode symbol in PHP5 with splitting it to a surrogate pair:
function codeToSymbol($em) {
if($em > 0x10000) {
$first = (($em - 0x10000) >> 10) + 0xD800;
$second = (($em - 0x10000) % 0x400) + 0xDC00;
return json_decode('"' . sprintf("\\u%X\\u%X", $first, $second) . '"');
} else {
return json_decode('"' . sprintf("\\u%X", $em) . '"');
}
}
echo codeToSymbol(0x1F63C); outputs 😼
Example of code parsing string including emoji unicode format
$str = 'Test emoji \U0001F607 \U0001F63C';
echo preg_replace_callback(
'/\\\U([A-F0-9]+)/',
function ($matches) {
return mb_convert_encoding(hex2bin($matches[1]), 'UTF-8', 'UTF-32');
},
$str
);
Output: Test emoji 😇 😼

Given a string of UTF-8 data in PHP, how can I convert and save it to a UTF-16LE file (this particular file happens to be destined for Indesign - to be placed as a tagged text document).
Data:
$copy = "<UNICODE-MAC>\n";
$copy .= "<Version:8><FeatureSet:InDesign-Roman><ColorTable:=<Black:COLOR:CMYK:Process:0,0,0,1>>\n";
$copy .= "A bunch of unicode special characters like ñ, é, etc.";
I am using the following code, but to no avail:
file_put_contents("output.txt", pack("S",0xfeff) . $copy);
You can use iconv:
$copy_utf16 = iconv("UTF-8", "UTF-16LE", $copy);
file_put_contents("output.txt", $copy_utf16);
Note that UTF-16LE does not include a Byte-Order-Marker, because the byte order is well defined. To produce a BOM use "UTF-16" instead.
Using the following code, I have found a solution:
this function changes the byte order (from http://shiplu.mokadd.im/95/convert-little-endian-to-big-endian-in-php-or-vice-versa/):
function chbo($num) {
$data = dechex($num);
if (strlen($data) <= 2) {
return $num;
}
$u = unpack("H*", strrev(pack("H*", $data)));
$f = hexdec($u[1]);
return $f;
}
used with a utf-8 to utf-16LE conversion, it creates a file that will work with indesign:
file_put_contents("output.txt", pack("S",0xfeff). chbo(iconv("UTF-8","UTF-16LE",$copy));
Alternatively, you could use mb_convert_encoding() as follows:
$copy_UTF16LE = mb_convert_encoding($copy,'UTF-16LE','UTF-8');
I am trying to write some Urdu text on an image using imgttftext() function of PHP. It does not display the characters unless I convert the text using the following code:
function convert($text){
$out="";
mb_language('uni');
mb_internal_encoding('UTF-8');
$text = mb_convert_encoding($text, 'HTML-ENTITIES',"UTF-8");
$text = html_entity_decode($text,ENT_NOQUOTES, "ISO-8859-1");
for($i = 0; $i < strlen($text); $i++) {
$letter = $text[$i];
$num = ord($letter);
if($num>127) {
$out .= "&#$num;";
} else {
$out .= $letter;
}
}
return $out;
}
Now, the text e.g. عچں (which contains the three characters ع چ ں) is printed on to the image as separate and full characters instead of cutting and joining the characters to form an Urdu word like عچں.
I have used the characters ا ب ت ث with codes U+0627, U+0628, U+0629 and so on from this page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Unicode_characters#Arabic
I have shared the code here: https://code.google.com/p/urdu-captcha/downloads/list
Note: I have added space between the characters in the code provided
removing which makes no difference to how the text is displayed on the
image.
How do I make it write the characters joined together to form proper words?
You'll need an additional library to perform Arabic glyph joining. Check out AR-PHP.
I have website that's in win-1251 encoding and it needs to stay that way. But I also need to be able to echo few links that contain non latin, non cyrillic characters like šžāņūī...
I need a function that convert this
"māja un man tā patīk"
to
"māja un man tā patīk"
and that does not touch html, so if there is <b> it needs to stay as <b>, not > or <
And please no advices about the encoding and how wrong that is.
$str = "<b>Obāchan</b> おばあちゃん";
$str = preg_replace_callback('/./u', function ($matches) {
$chr = $matches[0];
if (strlen($chr) > 1) {
$chr = mb_convert_encoding($chr, 'HTML-ENTITIES', 'UTF-8');
}
return $chr;
}, $str);
This expects the original $str to be UTF-8 encoded, i.e. your PHP file should be saved in UTF-8. It encodes all non-ASCII compatible code points to HTML entities. Since all HTML special characters are ASCII characters, they remain untouched. The resulting string is pure ASCII. Since the lower Win-1251 code points are ASCII compatible, the resulting string is also a valid Win-1251 string. The above $str converts to:
<b>Obāchan</b> おばあちゃん
The main things you probably don't want to encode are <, > and &. Those are really the only special characters. So how about encoding everything first, and then just decode <, > and & I feel you should be fine.
This is untested:
$output =
htmlspecialchars_decode(
htmlentities($input, ENT_NOQUOTES, 'CP-1251')
);
let me know
What Evert suggest looks logical to me too! If you insist this is a way to do it if there are only two letters that bother you. For more letters the scrit will not be as effective and needs to change.
<?PHP
function myConvert($str)
{
$chars['ā']='ā';
$chars['ī']='ī';
foreach ($chars as $key => $value)
$output = str_replace($key, $value, $str);
echo $str;
}
myConvert("māja un man tā patīk");
?>
==================edited==============
For many characters maybe this one can help you:
<?PHP
function myConvert($str)
{
$final=null;
$parts = preg_split("/&#[0-9]*;/i", $str);//get all text parts
preg_match_all("/&#[0-9]*;/i", $str, $delimiters );//get delimiters;
$delimiters[0][]='';//make arrays equal size
foreach($parts as $key => $value)
$final.=$value.mb_convert_encoding
($delimiters[0][$key], "UTF-8", "HTML-ENTITIES");
return $final;
}
$fh = fopen("testFile.txt", 'w') ;
fwrite($fh, myConvert("māja un man tā patīkī"));
fclose($fh);
?>
The desired output is written in the text file. This code, exactly as it is -not merged in some project- does what it claims to do. Converts codes like ā to the analogous character they present.
