I`am using

ARCHICAD 14 3004 INT FULL FOR TEAMWORK
Mac OS X Lion 10.7 (11A511)

ARCHICAD doesn`t seem to correctly recognize any file/folder names if they are in russian, cyrillic characters are substituded be question marks

for example in publisher set properties - path containing folders named using cyrillic characters would look like

Macintosh HD:Users:alexeioleynik:Desktop:???????? ?????

also dates which include weekday name doesn`t display correctly too

Could be because of Lion.
First try to upgrade to the latest hotfix that just came out.

Upgraded to latest hot fix - 4044 and nothing changed (

ArchiCAD still can`t recognize cyrillic symbols.

I`ve briefly heard somewhere on the internet, that on windows this could be fixed by changing some registry keys, maybe there is any similar solution on MacOS ?

UPDATE!

found a solution http://www.archicadwiki.com/Bugs/Cyrillic%20font%20problems

but now I have all my MacOS system menus and user folders in russian (

it would be great to see someday ArchiCAD recognizing cyrillic without a change to MacOS interface language, please fix it!

Please note that there is currently no ArchiCAD version (not even AC15) that is Lion-compatible. GS recommends not to upgrade yet until issues are sorted out.
