Eh? I can type in all of the Apple Language kits I have installed in
Word 6.0.1 (and Eudora 4.7, but I'll spare you this time) under OS 9.
That means
CE
Cyrillic
Arabic RTL
Hebrew RTL
Devanagari
Gurmukhi
Gujarati
Chinese T
Chinese S
Japanese
Korean
Extended Roman
Unicode Hex
I suppose I should install some more...
