When users try to open my distributed forms using Adobe Reader 9 they get an alert box which states:

'You need to install the Traditional Chinese Language Support Package to view or fill in this form. If you continue without installing this package the form will not work correctly'

Is there anything within LiveCycle Designer which can be changed to prevent this message from appearing when users try to open the form ?

If you use chinese in you form - No,

because the Language Packages are additional parts of the PDF-Viewer (Reader), which needs to be installed once.

If you don't use chines in your form, it may be you have ambedded accidently defferent local properties in the localSet.

Goto to the XML view and look for the localSet tag.

It may contain several locale elements.

Remove all element you don't need.

Thank You very Much for your reply Radzmar,

This is my script, I cannot see any Chinese symbols in it.

When creating the LiveCycle Document I used a Microsoft Word Document as a template could it be that Adobe has interpreted some of the Microsoft Work Font as Chinese symbols ?

Such as inverted commas (‘ “) etc.
