Displaying a graph with international characters

To display different languages for non-Unicode programs in graphs correctly, change the language settings in the Regional and Language Options dialog box to match the language used in the graph.

The system locale and the user locale must have the same language setting for ArcGIS to run properly in a selected language environment.

NoteNote:

An administrator account is necessary to complete this procedure.
