Help with translating to Chinese/Japanese/Russian (non-western)
Oct 29, 2012
Hi!
I was given several courses in which I just need to update a link and re-publish. However, the courses are in Chinese (simplified and traditional), Russian, and Japanese. While the files look fine in PPT, they do not compile correctly in Articulate and the language goes a bit wonky.
For instance, here is some correct text in PPT using Japanese:
Here is how it looks when it is published in Articulate. You can see the weird little boxes, etc:
Here is what I've done so far:
Font Used: Arial Unicode MS
In Articulate: Changed the publish characters to Non Western font, change label text to Japanese
In PPT: Changed primary editing language to Japanese, embedded fonts
In Windows 7: Changed my region to Japanese (which has wreacked havoc with my calendar)
Any other suggestions? I have 4 of these to convert and I am running out of ideas.
Thanks so much for your help!
