Problem with WideChar display in Windows 7

I am developing a small application. Signatures (text displayed on labels) with WideChars(Greek letters) are correct in Vista and Windows7 in almost every case, but in some cases (on some computers) I only have empty squares. The language is the same, the operating system too. What can cause this? Please help me how can I solve this problem.

The problem is that fonts on computers that fail do not have glyphs for the characters displayed. This usually happens on XP computers. Vista comes with much more complete fonts.

You may need to distribute fonts or encourage users to install language packs to ensure fidelity.

If you are testing the Greek translation of your application, you should check it on a Greek installation of Windows. An English Windows installation does not necessarily contain fonts that support your Unicode character range.
