Rachida, In the past, people used TwinBridge and NJ Star, but nowadays these are not needed any more. Both Windows XP/Vista and Mac OS X can handle multi-languages, including Chinese. You just need to set it up through control panel or system preferences. With that, you can just use Microsoft Word to do Chinese word processing. Google also provides a free Chinese Pinyin Input method, which I like a lot. You can download it at http://tools.google.com/pinyin/ ***** Jian Wu, Ph.D. Associate Director CLA Language Center University of Minnesota 110G Jones Hall 27 Pleasant St. SE Minneapolis, MN 55455 612-625-8658 [log in to unmask] >Dear All, > > > >I need to acquire a Chinese word processing program.
