About the Indian Language Kit

The Indian Language Kit contains all the software you need to work in three
different scripts and six different languages on your computer. You can use
your computer’s language capabilities in the following ways:

m You can enter English, Devanagari, Gurmukhi, and Gujarati together in a

single document, using any application program that takes advantage of
WorldScript I. (Check with your program’s manufacturer if you are not sure
your program is fully compatible with WorldScript I.)

m If you have an application program localized for use in any of the Indian

languages offered by the kit, the menus, dialog boxes, help messages, and
other elements will be displayed in that language.

m If your computer has QuickDraw GX installed, you can take advantage of

several advanced typographic features for Indian languages in applications
that use QuickDraw GX.

m WorldScript I, a system software extension that enables your system to

handle the special requirements of Indian languages
