Hi Jerry,
Welcome to Pivot! So, I looked at your code from the link below. The "OK" text comes from a JSON file inside Pivot itself, and is not translated even in the Chinese version of that file. Since you are overriding the Theme font with the "PMingLiU" font, my first guess would be that this font does not display the ASCII code points, and that is why you get two squares showing up -- this is the typical display when a particular font does not have glyphs for the characters it is trying to display. You can confirm that with a Unicode tool such as "BabelMap" on Windows (see http://www.babelstone.co.uk/Software/BabelMap.html). Although I don't know much about it, I think you can use/create a "composite" font that would combine a font face that supports the ASCII range plus the Chinese character set into a single font and then use that as the "theme" font in Pivot.
    Maybe someone else has some experience with this...

    I am trying to run the tutorial of SimpleTablePanes in RAD8.
    Everything is
    fine, except that text of the button on the Prompt is mess up. It
    only show
    two squares side by side instead of "OK".

    I tried the following things to hope there is a change.

    1. add -Dfile.encoding=utf8 on JRE VM arguments.

    2. add <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> on top of the bxml
    file for
    the SimpleTablePanes class

    I am on win 7 with default language set to CHINESE for non unicode
    program.
    Please advise.

    Thanks for your time.
    Jerry
