# PDF filename Unicode compliance tips
SWING Seascape supports Unicode compliant file naming from version 5.6 on MS Windows.
This compliance includes toolbar icon UI, LotusScript API and Java API.
If computed PDF file names are not readable on your operating system (shown as rectangles, question marks or any other generic symbol) like on image below then most common reason for this is wrong Windows localization.
Example: Far eastern symbols shown on European Windows localization:
Incorrect localization settings can also result in the same symbols appearing in Notes fields and forms.
If you for example work in USA and receive a Notes database from Japan, then symbols in Japanese Database might not be visible on your computer.
Localization should be changed to Japanese, this will force MS Windows to install all required fonts and resources for Japanese language.
Once this is done, localization can be safely reverted to US, without loss of Japanese resources.
[Here's the link for help page that describes how to change localization.](https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/68106-change-country-region-home-location-windows-10-a.html)

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://docs.swingsoftware.com/seascape-for-notes/faq/pdf-filename-unicode-compliance-tips.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
