Any user can change the current language to one of ICA-AtoM's supported languages by clicking on a language in the language menu. ICA-AtoM switches the user interface to the preferred language; if a translation of the database content into the preferred language exists, ICA-AtoM switches to the translation; if no translated version exists, ICA-AtoM displays the description in its original source version.

Support for Eastern language characters (e.g. Chinese, Japanese, Korean, etc.) is not installed by default in Microsoft Windows previous to Windows Vista. To install Eastern language character support in older Windows versions, please visit:
