Chinese characters in editor utf-8

Post by CodeChegga »

I am editing chinese charakters in a chinese language build for a existing Website.
First test pages with text comming from a Word2013 Document Tablelist - i just kopied using notepad++ into utf-8 konverted and saved html files.
Everthing is fine all browsers are showing the webpages fine without changing anything in my german/english css-definition. I am using Arial Helv sans serif as font-family declaration. Even the chinese people in asia are happy wit my testpages.

Now i want start the build up of the chinese pages using webuilder 2014 updatet August 2013 and the chinese character lines are not correct!
A lot of characters are disappearing.

Even if i select Sim Hei as Editor default font - the text display ist not correct?
thanks for help
regards Rainer

I'm sorry to say that unfortunately WeBuilder does not support Chinese characters.

Might be that there is a misunderstanding since CodeChegga missed to add a screenshot to make clear his problem. I can confirm that WB2014 (12.2 - Build 150) has a bug when it comes to display inserted Asian text:

The current version cut off the last 1,5 Japanese characters in the editor.
The preview works fine as in the past.

First of all, a screenshot taken with WB2010 (10.2 - Build 121) under XP, SP3:

Under WB2010 the Japanese characters are shown overlapping but nothing is missed.

The preview is successful: :-)

And that´s true for WB2014, too:

However, in the editor itself the last 1,5 characters are cut off:

As for WB2014, WIN7-Prof., 64-bit is used.
