Does anyone know how I can make all Chinese characters appear? I can change the encoding to Chinese Simplified (GB2312), Chinese Simplified (HZ) and Chinese Traditional (Big5). However, I still can’t see the Chinese characters in “Sentences:” that should show up below the Pinyin.

Thanks!

Have you installed the language pack for Windows?
Are you using IE? Can you see Chinese character in Firefox ?
