Report Builder Not Working With Thai Language
- 4 years ago
Yeah no it doesn't work either. I had a silly brainwave and changed the font just for kicks, turns out the default font Segoe UI doesn't support Thai language hence the tofu. I changed to Calibri and it immediately works. I then tried it in Word just for kicks and when I tried to switch from English to Thai, Word will automatically change the font from Segoe UI to Calibri. I'm not sure if Report Builder is supposed to have a similar feature, but yes, manually changing the font does work.
Hi prapatsorn ,
Did It used to be normal, but suddenly something went wrong? Have you tried other languages to see if they can be loaded normally? Does this have anything to do with your language settings?

This is my first go at it, I don't have dataset in other languages to try out though (aside from English which does work). As for the language settings, I have English (US) as Windows display language, and have a Thai keyboard installed. I'm not sure if that's what you meant but I genuinely don't think I have a configuration that's any out of the ordinary.....

For the language setting, select View\Properties. Then select the gray area outside of the report canvas. You will see Localization\Language option. Not sure it will help, but worth a try.
