Example: Greek
Here you can see how to display Greek in AutoPlay Media Studio. I took a filler text (Lorem Ipsum) using Greek characters, and displayed them in a Paragraph object:
You need to configure the Paragraph object to the correct charset, as shown in this image:
Then, just load the text in the original encoding and convert it using this plugin into a format that AutoPlay Media Studio can handle and display correctly:
txt = Encoding.ReadToString("AutoPlay\\Docs\\Greek-Lipsum.txt", "utf-8", "windows-1253");
Paragraph.SetText("ConvertedText", txt);Example: Russian
