Can somebody please expand on what you can actually do with this?

Ive never understood by reading the help file, or by actually tring it out.

Can you type a multiline text string in English, then make it show up as German on your sheet? Or when we recieve drawings from a manufacturer in Japan from thier (unknown) cad system (where the text comes in as 'ref' blocks or something, can you convert the Japanese writing/symbols into English and visa versa?

when I try it, it doesnt do anything at all. Or is it only supposed to work if they have the same cad system in Germany or Japan, and it always looks English at this end???

Cheers

Sirius2.
