The language used by {{IMSMANG}} is of two types:
# the language that the data is entered in (blue arrow)
# the language that the application use (red arrows).

| width="500pt" | When the users see ''squares'' instead of expected characters even if the font is installed on the computer e.g. in the Country structure then you need to
# create a new folder called ''fallback'' in ''C:\IMSMAng\java\lib\fonts'' and
# copy the fonts for the data language there.
| width="500pt" | Other font issues may be caused by high resolution VGA card. If this is the case then you need to:
# go to C:\IMSMAng\trayLauncher folder
# right-click on IMSMA.exe and choose Properties
# on the Compatibility tab check ''Disable display scaling on high DPI settings''
# choose ''System'' in the drop-down list.

When the users see ''squares'' instead of expected characters e.g. in menus and labels then something is wrong with the translation files IMessages and ITerms for the language specified in the Regional settings on the user's computer.
