Help - How to Type Simplified Chinese on G4 iBook?

Often when I'm in Xi'an China, I have friends that want to use my Mac but cannot as I don't know how to change settings on Tiger so keyboard enters Chinese characters.
Anybody know how?
Xiexie,
DaShan

Go to system prefs/international/input menu and check the box for the the Chinese you want, plus the box for "show input menu in finder." Then select Chinese in the "flag" menu at the top right of the Finder. Then type. Full info can be found here:

  • How do Traditional & Simplified Chinese labels work in Narrative Reports

    Hi There,
    I need to create a narrative report which will display the field labels in the language that the user has specified.
    For instance, if the user's default language is Simplified Chinese, how can I set the narrative report to automatically translate the field labels?
    Is there a way to do this as we have multiple users with different languages specified as their defaults.

    I think for this you will have to go back to using iwork 09, which you should still have in Applications/iwork.

  • Simplified Chinese characters in iGrid

    Hi,
    Does anyone know how to insert simplified Chinese characters in the headings of an iGrid applet.
    Thanks,
    Ahmed

    Thanks Sam,
    However the iGrid editor does not take in Chinese characters. When I pasted the Chinese characters in the headings fields of the layout pane of the iGrid editor they came out as little boxes. Even after saving the template and viewing it in IE they still came out as little boxes.
    I opened up the saved template's XML file in a unicode editor pasted the Chinese characters for the headers then changed the font from the default Dialog to SimSun. SimSun is not one of the fonts available in the dropdown list of fonts in the iGrid editor. I then saved the XML file and re-viewed in IE and the Chinese characters displayed properly.

  • Help!! Want to immigrate Oracle Data in ASCII7 code to a Simplified Chinese Database

    I want to immigrate Oracle Data in ASCII7 code to a Simplified Chinese Database?
    I use exp& imp but it failed.
    Who can help me !
    Thanks a lot!

    Can you please specify the exact character sets you are migrating, such as US7ASCII ->ZHS16GBK . There are a couple of common scenarios. One is the source character set is not a subset of the target. Another is that the source character set has illegal characters. In your case maybe non ASCII characters. A third possibility is that you have not set up your NLS_LANG settings properly when you did your import or export. Can you please also describe the error message you are getting? What versions of Oracle do the source and target database reside? There is an Oracle utility that is highly recommended to use with Oracle8i before doing migrations called the Character Set Scanner. For more information on database character set migration issues and the Character Set Scanner please refer to

  • How to display and type in Chinese on BB bold 9000?

    Hey, I'm a new user of BB bold 9000. Just bought the phone from the states, which was distributed by AT&T and it is unlocked.
    I have tried couple times by following this post:
    http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-Curve-BlackBerry-8300/Chinese-Character/m-p/35515?...
    In the aforesiad post, instrucation was given as:
    install Desktop Manager without Media Manager on your PC
    install the handheld software 4.5.0.174 on your PC (it will install inside the Desktop Manager)
    seaarch for a file called vendor.xml and rename it to vendor.xml.toto or anything else
    plug your BlackBerry device to the PC, and launch the Desktop Manager
    in the application section, you can see the OS of 2) and install it to your BlackBerry device."
    Basically what I did was to install Desktop Manager without Media Manager (5.0) version on my PC and installed the handheld software 4.6
    I noticed that there's no Chinese language selection (basically no Asian languages) and I then tried 4.6 Desktop Manager which still didn't work.
    Also, I am not able to find the "vender.xml", wondering if this has any impact on the application.
    What should I install to display and type in Chinese? Any inputs will be appreciated!
    Thanks

  • How do I view simplified chinese in Word and the Internet?

    You can use TextEdit for text docs.  After File > Open, select one of the S. Chinese encodings (or UTF-8) from the Plain Text Encoding menu until you find one that works.
    If you are using a browser, then you can try the different encodings in View > Text Encoding.
    If you have to use Word for Mac to open stuff, I don't know whether you can adjust encodings, probably best to search/ask in the forum run by its maker:

  • Pls help - Displaying Simplified Chinese characters

    Hi all,
    I am using Servlet to generate HTML.
    When I use setContentType="charset=big5" and out.println(" . . . ."); with Big-5 Traditional Chinese characters, everything is fine.
    However, when I use setContentType="charset=gb2312" and out.println(" . . . ."); with GB2312 Simplified Chinese characters, everything is trash with some ??????.
    The internet browser in both cases can correctly set to the appropriate character set, that is, in the 1st case it is big5 and in the 2nd case it is gb2312.
    Pls help

    It should be because the font provided cannot handle the characters. Java only ever sprays question marks or rectangles at you if the font you're using is incapable of displaying what you're trying to show.
    I'd imagine that the system's default font is capable of displaying Big5 Chinese characters quite happily if it's working on the page. The problem will come when you switch the encoding of the page and the characters within it. The same default font obviously can't display GBK stuff. So switching the font (probably through the use of <FONT face=""> tags) might do the trick.
    Hope that helps!

  • How to download traditional and simplified Chinese fonts in PS? [was:Hello, is it possible]

    to download traditional and simplified Chinese fonts and install them into Photoshop (if I can find a site that will allow me to download them)? Would I just download them and install them to my Windows font folder and Photoshop would display them under its font tool just like it would Times Roman, Verdana, etc?
    Thank you.
    Steve

    Yes, fonts are handled by the system. Depending on what type of fonts you may however still need to change your system language and region settings to actually get access to them...

  • How to convert traditional chinese to simplified chinese in iWork?

    As a topic, after update to Mavericks,   I'm unable to convert the traditional Chinese to simplified Chinese, even though I use the Page Service  to set a short cut for converting, but it doesn't work. When I use Lion version, I'm able to do it............. It's hard to Google transit everything when there is including some tables in the Page......

    I think for this you will have to go back to using iwork 09, which you should still have in Applications/iwork.

  • Encoding or font problem? Simplified Chinese characters

    Would be great if someone could help!
    I don't know much about Dreamweaver but trying to use it to create an invitation in Chinese. I tried to edit a template I used for an English invitation. But when I preview it in IE, some characters become weird but some are fine. I tried to use different fonts to test, and set different encoding from Edit > Preference. But nothing really changes. I have attached the file in IE. Anyone knows what's wrong?
    Thanks a ton!

    The only help I can offer is a post made by David Powers to a similar question some time ago:
    Change the page encoding. Modify > Page properties > Encoding. Depending 
    on the type of Chinese, choose Chinese Traditional (normally used in 
    Taiwan and Hong Kong) and Chinese Simplified (used in the People's 
    Republic).

  • Input Simplified Chinese Characters into Microsoft Powerpoint

    Please help!
    What's the easiest way to put Simplified Chinese Characters into Microsoft Powerpoint???
    I have a mandarin project due like in a week, and I've been trying to find out how to do this on a mac. I've tried the international thing on preferences, but it doesn't work very well, and doesn't even work on powerpoint. Any help would be awesome!!!!
    Cheers!

    the characters turn out as wierd symbols
    You should really have no problem with Office 2004. You might make sure you have the MS Chinese Fonts selected for your text field (SimSun.ttf and PMingLiU.ttf. They appear in the Font menu as 宋体 and 新細明體.)
    Send me a screenshot if you like (tom at bluesky dot org).
    If problems continue, you can ask in the Chinese-Mac group:
