    About Language Kit Updater for Mac OS 8.5

    This Language Kit Updater will update your Apple Language Kit(s) to work with Mac OS 8.5. You need to run the Apple Language Kit Updater for Mac OS 8.5 (LKU 8.5) every time you install one or more of the following Language Kits:

    Arabic Language Kit 1.0.1 or 1.0
    Chinese Language Kit 2.0 or 1.2
    Cyrillic Language Kit 1.0
    Hebrew Language Kit 1.0.1 or 1.0
    Indian Language Kit 1.0
    Japanese Language Kit 1.2
    Korean Language Kit 1.0

    Using LKU8.5 with earlier language kits is not supported.

    Installation Requirements
    • Mac OS 8.5
      You must have Mac OS 8.5 or greater installed. LKU 8.5 will not recognize older versions of the Mac OS. Install LKU 8.5 from the CD Extras Folder on the Mac OS 8.5 installation CD.

    Known Issues
    • You may be able to read a document created with fonts that are not present on your computer; however you may get unreadable text when printing the document using LaserWriter 8. The workaround is to highlight the text and select a font from your application's font menu before printing. You will not experience this with a non-PostScript printer such as a StyleWriter.
    • Custom removing language support with a Language Kit installer will also remove Multilingual Internet Access support for that language.

    What does LKU 8.5 install/remove?

    LKU 8.5 checks your system to detect which Apple Language Kit(s) you have installed and automatically updates the files you need. Regardless of which Apple Language Kit(s) you have installed, LKU 8.5 deletes obsolete files and installs or updates files as necessary:
