Does the existing US version of MSN Messenger for OS X properly handle Japanese text in instant messages sent to other OS X and XP clients? If not, will the Office X release in Japan be accompanied by a version of MSN Messenger that will? And if so, will there be a way to download the Japanese version of MSN Messenger separately? I mention this because I've tried sending test messages between the latest OS X and XP versions of MSN Messenger, and the Japanese text doesn't make the trip without getting mangled. Sending Japanese text from the OS X version to the XP version is unreadable because it doesn't appear to yield the text in the correct font (even though I've selected a Japanese font and the Japanese script within MSN Messenger), and messages sent in the other direction end up as question marks in the OS X version. So my quest for a solid cross-platform (OS X and Win32) Japanese-capable instant messaging system continues. Perhaps Hildum-sensei will have some suggestions in this area? I apologize for the many questions and for taking this thread even further off-topic. ;) Best, Justin -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> archives: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.letterrip.com/> old-archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.boingo.com/>
