ruthharbourJakobRohde I have a similar problem. I am an author. I am using the tracking function to let people edit my writing. This time my document came back using Japanese as the display language. I got onto my world regions and changed it to the United States (it was Taiwan). But still the Japanese system comes back everytime I open that tracked document. I don't have a clue what to do.
