Swift-TX subtitling with Windows XP Japanese IME
2010/11/24

In order to get Swift to work with Japanese , you have to set the font in the swift preferences:
This computer worked –
meaning: IME showing up here.
”Input mode” must be set to Hiragana, not “direct input” which (if I recall correctly think) we did in XP/ control panel/ “regional and language settings”.
We could replicate getting it to work on other XP computers:
by resetting of the “input mode” from “direct input” to “hiragana”,
AND after a restart of switch and opening a new swift file:
Next problem:
when you use ctrl up/down arrow , spurious spaces appear between letters.

Go to control panel / regional and language options / tab: languages.
-
-
Check whether (1) Japanese / Keyboard / MS IME Standard 2003 is installed. Otherwise (2) button:add it
-
With (1) Japanese / Keyboard / MS IME Standard 2003 is installed selected, click on (3) button: properties and ensure these settings are right, then click button: “ok”
-
-
Now Open Swift.
-
Menu file / preferences / tab: open:/ section:available fonts, button:add, add ms pgothic, section: default font, button:change, select ms pgothic, like here:
-
-
Menu file / preferences / tab: spelling and languages, select primary language: Japanese, like here, then close with button: ok,
-
-
Close the existing and open a new swift file.
-
With swift still being the active application, ensure that in the windows language bar (if you do not see all the language bar icons, right click on input language icon
, choose additional icons in the taskbar 
; you may also have to right-click left of the input language icon, uncheck lock language bar, then resize the bar for the additional icons to show) the right input language is chosen, like here: -
-
Troubleshooting: It has been observed that the IME popup editor does not appear like here:
. This may be related to the IME option “Input type” getting reset from “Hiragana”to “Direct Input”. Double-check this. Also, if all else fails, close existing and open a new file within Swift and/or close and reopen Swift, making sure that the IME settings remain. -
