The previous version's release notes (version 1.0.2) incorrectly indicated support for Japanese, Korean, Mandarin Chinese and Ukrainian in Cantito. We apologize for the error. That said, this release includes preliminary support for Japanese, Korean, Mandarin Chinese and Ukrainian as well as Farsi (including right-to-left support when choosing Farsi as a target language).
