Answer

NVivo for Windows lets you work with Unicode data, which means you can work with data in virtually any language. NVivo for Mac can also handle symbol and character based languages such as Japanese, Mandarin and Cantonese.

NVivo may not operate as expected when attempting to use right to left languages such as Arabic, Hebrew and Persian/Farsi. We recommend you subscribe to an NVivo Trial to test the functionality before purchasing.
