Firefox Spanish

Displaying Spanish characters in Firefox

Firefox is designed to display text in virtually any language.

If Spanish characters do not display correctly please follow the steps below.

1) Set your browser to recognise Spanish language internet sites.

Windows users: Under "Tools - Options" on your browser's menu-bar add Spanish to the languages list.
Macintosh users: Under "Preferences - Languages" on your browser's menu-bar add Spanish to the languages list.

2) Set your browser's "Character Set" or "Encoding" to UTF-8 (sometimes also called Universal Alphabet or Unicode).

English pages will generally continue to display normally after making this change.
Encoding settings can be changed under the "View" option in your browser's menu-bar.
The image below may be of some help.

3) Windows users: If Spanish text still does not display correctly, East Asian language support may need to be enabled. This is free to download.
