    1. No, you don’t need to encode them if the encoding is specified correctly in the XML prolog.
    2. Most likely the font that you are using in the IDE doesn’t have the required glyphs, so it displays square boxes. To fix this problem go to Settings | Editor | Colors & Fonts and change the editor font to the one that has Chinese glyphs in it.
