SUMMARY
Microsoft proofing tools packages are available from Alki(R) Software for
languages from six different language groups: Western European, Central
European, Baltic, Cyrillic, Greek, and Turkish.
MORE INFORMATION
Each language group uses its own set of characters. By default, you can
proof text in any of the languages within your system's language group. For
example, if you are using the US English version of Windows 95 or Windows
NT, you should have no problem proofing text in other Western European
languages. However, if you want to proof text in a different language
group, you may need to adjust your operating system to enable your
applications to display and proof text correctly in the new language.
For additional information about how to enable support for multiple
languages in Windows, please see the following articles in the Microsoft
Knowledge Base:
Q141306 How to Enable Support for Multiple Languages in Windows
Q177561 How to Add and Enable Additional Languages in Windows NT
NOTE: The spelling check feature does not work in Office 97 applications,
other than Word 97 for Windows, in languages outside your Windows 95
operating system's language group. You must upgrade to Windows NT 4.0.
Please contact Alki Software for more information.
The following table lists the language groups and languages for use with
Office 97, and which proofing tools are included in each package.
NOTE: Some proofing tools are not available for all languages.
