Can someone help me with this.

I want to edit a pdf file on Microsoft Edge. It was fine with the English language; but I can't type Chinese characters, like they just disappear.

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

    15th March 2023 - SOLUTION: download Mozilla Firefox Browser!!! Different scripts like Chinese and Korean will show up on there and you can add text in different colours and draw on the PDF similar to what you can do on Edge.

    Seems MS is going to use Adobe PDF engine so very likely this won't be fixed... Let's wait for the Adobe engine version...

    Same issue has been present in all Edge Chromium releases for me using Japanese (IME editor) characters.

    Is anyone at Microsoft (not an MVP) actually looking at this bug?
