- Sorry if this is a too-simple question, but...
-
- I have more-or-less been ignoring any postings or info about system
- 7.1, mostly becuase IT COSTS MONEY NOW, where before system upgrades
- did not.
-
- At any rate, from the little I've seen, the new system is supposed to
- be able to support multiple languages at the same time... like even in
- the same document. Is this true?
-
- I'd like to have an English system (use English for the menu items and
- dialog boxes, etc), but be able to select a Hebrew font in the middle
- of my MSWord document AND have it key in right-to-left. Is this
- possible with the new system? Is there more I'd have to buy, besides
- maybe some PostScript or TT Hebrew fonts?
-
- FYI, I have a Mac LCII, 6 meg RAM, 80 Meg HD, 512K built-in video RAM.
-
- Thanks muchly for the info!
