Textify should support any language, so I believe that the issue is the target program, not the language.

You can see that Textify can get Japanese text correctly e.g. from Notepad: Japanese with Textify

Textify relies on UI Automation. There’s a tool from Microsoft called Inspect which shows automation-related information. It can be downloaded here.

Please try it on the programs which Textify can’t handle, and let me know whether Inspect is able to extract the text.
