Setting the Text control panel

As just described, the same script can be used by more than one language.
Two languages that share the same script may have different rules for such
things as sorting order. When more than one set of rules exists for the script
you are using, you use the Text control panel to specify which rules you want
to use. For your primary script, the rules determine how file and folder names
are sorted on your desktop.

For example, if your primary script is Roman and you’ve installed support for
both French and U.S. systems, you could set the Roman script to always
follow U.S. rules for sorting.

If you have added Korean to an English system, or to another system that uses
the Roman script, your Text control panel looks like the examples on this
page. The Text control panel looks different on systems with other languages
installed.

You won’t need to adjust the Text control panel for Korean text behavior, since
this kit contains only one set of rules for sorting order and capitalization. If
you have more than one Roman language installed, you can choose the
Roman text behavior that you prefer.

To adjust your Text control panel, follow these steps:

1

Choose Control Panels from the Apple (

K

) menu and open the Text control panel.

2

Pull down the Script menu and select the script you want to change.

3

Pull down the Behavior menu and select the language whose rules you want to apply.

4

Close the Text control panel.
