Hello. If I have many files - text, music, movies, etc, that are in another
language (hebrew to be exact), how do I get windows to display the hebrew
font? righ now, i just see a bunch of random english characters, as if the
computer does not know to display them in hebrew.
i hope my question in understood!
Looking up "Hebrew" in Windows Help would set you on the right track:
To install complex script and right-to-left language files
Open Regional and Language Options in Control Panel.
On the Languages tab, under Supplemental language support, select the
Install files for complex script and right-to-left languages check box.
Click OK or Apply.
After the files are installed, you must restart your computer.
Notes
To open Regional and Language Options, click Start, click Control Panel,
and then double-click Regional and Language Options.
You must be logged on as an administrator or a member of the
Administrators group in order to complete this procedure. If your
computer is connected to a network, network policy settings might also
prevent you from completing this procedure.
The complex script and right-to-left languages include Arabic, Armenian,
Georgian, Hebrew, the Indic languages, Thai, and Vietnamese. The files
for most other languages are installed on your computer automatically by
Windows.
It is recommended that you install these files only if you are going to
be entering or receiving text in one or more of these languages.
Installing the language files may slow down your computer's performance
slightly.
Once you install the language files, you must add the individual
languages for which you want to enter and display text. Once you add a
language, the language is loaded into memory every time you start your
computer. For more information, click Related Topics.
To remove the complex script and right-to-left language files, clear the
check box, and then click OK or Apply.
