Verdana, the default font used by Pivot, does not support Chinese characters. 
However, you can specify a different font when your application starts up using 
Theme#setFont(). The localization tutorial includes an example of how this can 
be done automatically:

http://pivot.apache.org/tutorials/localization.html
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/pivot/trunk/tutorials/src/org/apache/pivot/tutorials/localization/

Be sure to do this before you construct your UI or the components will use the 
default font.

Hope this helps,
Greg
