Only if you consider that almost half the user base of OOo [and derivatives] do not use the Latin writing system as their default writing system, can say it affects a small minority of users. > Has anybody written a HOWTO on inputting (for example) simplified Chinese > characters into OOo using MS Global Input Method Editor under Windows When I update _OOo In A Multi-Lingual Environment_, I'll be adding details of that type. [I had intended doing that last month, but a documentation rewrite that I thought was going to be between 300 and 500 pages has just hit the 2 500 page mark. It still very incomplete. I expect to be able to put it aside next week, and rewrite OOo in a Multi-Lingual Environment for OOo 2.0.] Currently, I simply mention that an IME is needed, and which ones that are available work with OOo. > for information on the two methods I mentioned. This time around, I'll be able to cover both Windows, and Linux.
