Mp3 Tag Assistant Professional - one of the first audio taggers with complete UNICODE support for tags, playlists and filelists.
You can open audio files with national (UNICODE) characters on audio tags and our software correctly will show this information (see Figure 1). You can create, change, delete, copy audio tags with national (UNICODE) characters, import these characters from XML, TXT and CSV files, export to XML, TXT and CSV files and playlists. The program interface support UNICODE characters also.
Using Mp3 Tag Assistant Professional you can use your national characters: diacritic symbols, umlauts, hieroglyphs easily and simply!
 The some audio tag format can't support the UNICODE characters. For example, ID3v1 tags for MP3 files. We recommend to use ID3v2 tags for UNICODE support. WMA and M4A metadata and some other tag types support national (UNICODE) characters also.
UNICODE program settings
You must change settings of the program if you want to use national characters.
- Open program Settings dialog (press the "F9" button).
- Select "Unicode" tree item (see Figure 2) and change encoding for new tags, playlists or filelists.

The program uses a system default font by default. This font does not support the all UNICODE symbols.
