# Thai symbols not shown in PDF document

When converting documents with Thai symbols, SWING Seascape checks if **Angsana New** font is installed on system. Font *Angsana New* is the most common Thai font on Microsoft Windows.

If *Angsana New* cannot be found, SWING Seascape checks for **Garuda** font, which can be freely downloaded from [the web](http://slice-of-thai.com/fonts/Garuda.ttf).

Finally, if both fonts are not present, SWING Seascape will look for **Arial Unicode MS**.

Follow these steps to install downloaded fonts:

* Download the font to your computer
* If the font is compressed, unzip it
* In Windows Explorer right-click on the font file and select **Install for all users**

![](/files/cvmKsFrJWRdQjGI2RKOd)

* Close Notes client and all other Notes applications (Designer, Administrator, etc.) and then start it again

{% hint style="info" %}
It is important that font is **installed for all users**. If the font is installed just for the current user Windows will be able to use it but it won't be available for Seascape
{% endhint %}
