Hi all,

I'm trying to set up an array (or cell) of size around 20x20, and then paste some Chinese characters into various locations in this array. I'm pretty much just using MATLAB to help me arrange a grid of characters. Whenever I paste into the array editor however, my characters turn into '?' symbols.
Can MATLAB display these characters? If so, how can I get this text into some kind of MATLAB variable that I can manipulate?

Thanks,
Sven
