【encoding problem】SMA is a great job, but unfortunately it is not available for many Asian users.

Description

I'm sorry I need to give feedback on a problem with Chinese locale computer support.

If the region of the computer is set to "Chinese (Simplified)", SMA will have a bunch of messy codes when importing and extracting PDFs and chrome pages.

messy code:

If you switch to "English (US)", this problem is solved. But at the same time, many other software used in Chinese environment has the problem of garbled code, which is a bit like you cannot have it both ways.

other software: (Someone in the community was affected by this problem while working all afternoon yesterday...)

This is a bit like the problem of Japanese Galgame games that need to be region-shifted, but after I tried all the region-shifting tools, like Locale Emulator and Ntleas, this problem still can't be solved, and all the tools don't work for SMA.

I have tried everything and feel exhausted. On behalf of the many Chinese community users who desperately need SMA, I would like to ask you, Alexis, to help solve this big problem.

Steps to Reproduce

2. change region to Chinese(Simplified,China)
   

Expected behavior

Everything is back to the normal import look, no messy code.
