It is a very useful software.

I am using Window 10 64-bit with US-English as the OS language.

It is very good when I input with purely English character. However, it still did not take any Chinese character for export to graphic nor pdf format.

Besides, for high resolution (1920 x 1080), the graphic functions (double-arrow, scissor, etc.) on the task bar are very difficult to get it right.

Hope these could be improved in the near future.

Thank you for listening!

@RCLK you need to choose chart font with Chinese glyphs in the application settings and PDF export settings (see screenshots below)

This makes Chinese glyphs working in PNG export and in the text part of PDF. Graphic part in the PDF export seems to have issues, we'll look at this.
