- Japanese Language Kit - Description
-
- Copyright 1993, Apple Computer, Inc.
-
- The Japanese Language Kit contains everything you need to easily add Japanese
- to your documents. This Language Kit can be used with your Apple Macintosh
- computer to run Japanese applications and include Japanese text in letters,
- presentations, and reports. You can even work with files created using
- KanjiTalk, Apple's Japanese version of the Macintosh operating system.
-
- Whether you're a desktop publisher or business professional , you can use the
- Language Kit to develop Japanese language materials such as brochures,
- posters, business cards, presentations, and restaurant menus. Students and
- teachers can use it to run interactive Japanese language programs, and produce
- compelling term papers using Japanese. While the Japanese Language Kit does
- not translate text, it does let you easily input, edit, and print in Japanese
- using your current operating system (version 7.1).
-
- The Language Kit works as an extension to System 7.1 and allows you to run
- Japanese applications. Because you use your original operating system, there
- is no need to keep an additional system on your hard drive. The Japanese
- Language Kit also contains Kotoeri, the same easy-to-use input method that is
- included in KanjiTalk 7.
-
- Almost every major software program has a version that has been localized for
- Japanese. All you need to run them is the Japanese Language Kit and System
- 7.1. You can even use non-localized programs, such as Nisus 3.4, that take
- advantage of WorldScript, Apple's new software technology. WorldScript,
- introduced with System 7.1, simplifies the way in which multiple languages can
- be supported by a single operating system.
-
- The Japanese Language Kit comes with two Kanji TrueType fonts, which offer high
- quality output from any Macintosh-compatible printer. Documentation is
- provided in both Japanese and English, and you can type using either the Roman
- or kana keyboard layout. These features make it easy to use whether you're a
- native speaker or just learning Japanese.
