I've just installed SQL Workbench and tried to write a script, but the output appears all squarish, even though the UI itself is in English. Are there any ways to show the script in English? E.g. "SELECT * FROM table;"

Configuration

  • Ubuntu with encoding "Unicode - UTF-8"

Steps

  1. In the Workbench, go to Toolbar > Edit > Preferences
  2. In Preferences, go to Fonts > SQL Editor > Set value as "Source Sans Pro 10"
  3. Restart Workbench
