Troubleshooting Non Japanese Applications

Difficulties when using a US version of the application on the Kanji operating system

If you are having symptoms that your application doesn't support 2 Byte Japanese characters, you are probably using a US version of application on Kanji Operating System. Fonts and inserting the cursor do not function properly.

· As the backspace key is pressed, the deleted Japanese character unexpectedly turns into another character. As more characters are deleted, the more garbled the end of the line becomes.

· The application accepts Japanese characters. However, the cursor appears to be away from the end of the text line. When placing a cursor within a line, characters are not inserted where the cursor is.
