Configuring for Asian languages

Edit online

Make changes in the Features window to support Asian languages in IBM® Engineering Systems Design Rhapsody® .

About this task

The element labels support Asian language text in Chinese, Korean, Taiwanese, and Japanese. The text input can be through the Features window, browser, or graphic editor, and all non-ASCII characters are stored as RTF instead of plain text.

Procedure

To set the project properties to use an Asian language font for text input:

  1. Right-click on the project name in the browser and select Features.
  2. Select the Properties tab.
  3. From the View menu, select Filter and search property names for "font."
  4. Right-click on the font name and description that needs to be changed and click the browse button to display the Font window.
  5. Check to be certain that the font supports the Asian language you want to display. If the font does not support the required character set, select a new font from the Font list, such as MS Gothic that supports Kanji characters required for Japanese.
  6. Also in the Font window, select the Script selection and use the list to select the correct language, as shown in this example.
  7. Click OK save the change. Make this same change to any other font properties that are required.
