Arial Baltic does not work on fm7/fm8

A colleague passed me a .mif in Latvian that needs Arial Baltic (for non unicode fm7).
For my colleague alla works good in FM7.0: she gives the correct font and the file is right.
For me it doesn't: if I apply Arial Baltic in FM7 some strain characters appear.
I tried in FM8 too: I can apply any unicode font, but the characters do not change: they remain the same as a non unicode font (and they are wrong as many accent missing).

    Carlo,

    Can you use Arial Baltic in a new document to properly enter any of
    the accented characters in FM7? If not, there's a problem with your
    configuration. How did you create the Arial Baltic mapping for Arial?

    This won't work in FM8, you have to use a non-unicode version of the
    font encoded to the WinBaltic 1257 codepage, i.e. the derived Arial
    Baltic from unicode Arial won't be recognized by FM8.

    Are your Windows language settings the same?
