@john01one’s solution worked just fine for me (tweetdeck on winXP).

Thanks a lot!

I am a Greek myself and I had the same problem on win7. It’s simple, If it is the same on Mac, just go to “Settings” then “colors/font” and at “TweetDeck Font” click “International Font/Twitterkey”

Sorry I can’t help with this, Taher – I have no experience with Arabic script.

I can’t find a way to make this work with Arabic script!!! Allowing the international font option makes the characters appear in a weird way….

That’s a good tip, thank you! It doesn’t seem very convenient having to do this each time you want to swap languages, however – surely Tweetdeck’s authors will want to change this?

Thanks again…

I know this is an older post but since I’m not seeing any solution posted herein, I thought I should say that in the settings there’s a “Colors/Font” option that has a section called “TweetDeck Font” and therein exists a couple of radio buttons. If you move the radio button from the “Original Font” to the “International Font / Twitterkey” you will be able to send and receive tweets in Greek and in other languages as well :)

Hope this helps.

[...] useful to flag tweets written in a non-standard language character set. For example, because of the limitations of some Twitter clients, we might want an additional symbol to tag a tweet that it is in Greek but which is transliterated [...]

I have the same problem, after updating to 0.30.3 on my iMac the Persian tweets are not shown correctly. Anyone knows of a fix by any chance?
P.S. the Windows version still works fine!
