Publishing professional-quality help files often means supporting multiple languages — from Hungarian to Japanese, Greek to Chinese. Yet if you've ever generated a CHM help file and found that certain letters appear strangely (like `ő` being replaced by `Q`, `ű` appearing as `q` or question marks instead of characters), you've encountered a limitation buried deep within the CHM format's history. Fortunately, the HelpNDoc help authoring tool is designed with these challenges in mind, and provides a powerful set of tools to help you create accurate, multilingual CHM help files. Let's take a closer look at why this problem happens, and how HelpNDoc provides a simple solution.
