Re: chinese fonts on PC are changed to ?? on mobile after sync

Hi,
The problem with multiple langauge fonts is that the default font (Tahoma)
does not have all the characters of all fonts. So you would need to install
a Tahoma font from your PC that supports the Chinese characters you are
using.

I hope this helps. I've run into this with contacts that I have that are in
English and Korean.
