Comments Appearing in Different Language/Encoding in PHPStorm
I opened up PHP Storm this afternoon to get some work done and noticed that my comments were appearing in a different language or encoding:
When I copy/paste them into any place else, they will appear as normal text. I checked my plugins and nothing seems like it would affect that.
Any help would be appreciated because I cannot really use this thing until I get it fixed. Is there some setting somewhere that I am missing? I disabled all non-JetBrains plugins and I searched for encoding and language settings but nothing jumps out at me.

Hi there,
Your IDE version exactly? And OS?
How many files are affected? I mean -- just certain files or all?
"Settings/Preferences | Editor | File Encodings" -- find your file there and force specific encoding (also accessible via Status Bar .. of "File" menu) . Also check there that correct Project/IDE encoding is set (I do not know what you are using there, but I would recommend using UTF-8).
You mean -- copying comments from opened file in the editor?
Sounds stupid and rather unlikley .. but it may also be a font issue (e.g. if it affects all such text .. or if it affects text renderd in certain style -- e.g. italic).
While typing my response to you, I accidentally discovered the problem. It's the font. For whatever reason my copy of Adobe Source Code Pro from TypeKit is not compatible with JetBrains software. The second I flipped it to something else like Lucida Console every thing appeared as normal.
