Microsoft Office 97 provides Far East support for the following four
languages:
| • | Japanese |
| • | Korean |
| • | Traditional Chinese |
| • | Simplified Chinese |
Far East support is not automatically installed with Office 97 or Word 97.
To install Far East support as a separate component, see the "More
Information" section of this article.
When you install Far East support, you can:
| • | Correctly display Far East characters in documents created with the Far
East version of Office 97. Without the Far East font, the characters
appear as block characters.
Note The Far East characters can be viewed but not edited. |
| • | Convert and view documents from Far East versions of Office 95. Without
the Far East support files, the Far East characters are lost. |
| • | Convert and view HTML documents in Office 97 programs and in Microsoft
Internet Explorer 3.0. |
| • | Correctly interpret file properties from documents created in the Far
East version of Office 97. Without the Far East support files, if you
open a document created with the Far East version of Word, the
Properties dialog box (available from the File menu) is blank in the
United States version of Word. |
