Mac OS X includes several languages you can select for menus and dialogs. You can also view and type text in these languages. In addition to these languages, you can read and write text in other languages.
------------------------------------------------------------------------DISCUSSION
Notes
1. Use of some languages requires installation of additional software, such as a Mac OS 9 language kit or font. For example, Mac OS X 10.1 includes script bundles for Cyrillic and Central European languages. However, such a script bundle does not activate unless at least one font for that script is present. Installing a font that is compatible with the script bundle will activate it. Keyboard layouts associated with the activated bundle then appear in the International Preferences panel. Mac OS 9 language kits are included as custom installation items on the Mac OS 9 Installation CD. References in this document to "language kits" refer to these.
2. Some applications display text in these languages automatically, while others require that you select the text and use a special font for the language.
3. Some languages require a region-specific, or "localized," version of the Mac OS.
4. Unicode allows you to use certain languages in applications such as Mail, TextEdit, or the Finder.
5. To type text in a given language, you may need to select a keyboard or input method for it in the International panel of System Preferences. After selecting additional keyboards or input methods, a new menu with a flag icon will appear in the menu bar of all applications. This is the keyboard menu, and it allows you to choose among different keyboards or input methods. Some input methods may create an additional menu next to the keyboard menu when they are active. Keyboards listed as "Unicode" in International Preferences are only available in Unicode applications such as Mail, TextEdit, or the Finder. When typing in an application, the availability of these keyboards in the keyboard menu indicates whether or not that application works with Unicode.
The following sections explain how to view or type text in various languages:
