{{Note | The Data Entry Templates and the Summary Templates will not automatically be translated. }}
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.

If you would like to run {{IMSMANG}} in a language other than English or make changes to the English terms and messages, you will need to create three properties files for that language:
* IMessagesXX.properties;
* ITermsXX.properties;
* trans_XX.properties.
