Hi All,
Just got a iBook OSX 10.3 Panther.
Previous system OS 9.2.2, I was able to use the Chinese input (Handwriting) to write simplified or Traditional Chinese with the mouse.

I can do this with Panther.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Go to System Preferences>International>Input Menu and select Traditional Chinese as one of your input methods. The flag next to your clock in the menubar will then allow you to select Trad Chinese input etc.

I've never seen a handwritten input method on OS X, other than Ink, which is English-only and requires a Wacom tablet.

And please don't cross-post.

Plug in a Wacom tablet, and a new prefpane called 'Ink' should appear in System Preferences.

Like I said, Ink is English only and requires a Wacom pad.
