Hi, I've just upgraded to Tablet PCE 2005 and have two Q's regarding major
features.

''The following language handwriting recognizers are included in Windows XP
Tablet PC Edition 2005 Recognizer Pack: Chinese (Traditional), Chinese
(Simplified), U.S. English, U.K. English, French, German, Italian, Japanese,
Korean, and Spanish.''

1) When can we expect these recognizers to even include Swedish?
2) Wen can we expect that Microsoft Office 2003 Pack is realeased, so I can
fully use the tablet functions in the same way as office XP?

In answer to #1 - Microsoft has not announced anything about additional
languages being added, Hover.

For #2 - Office 2003 doesn't require a "pack" for the same Ink functionality
(and beyond) that the XP (2002 program versions) had. It is already built
in. Microsoft, however, did issue a small Office 2003 Tablet PC Update:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en
which increases the areas of the Office 2003 family products which use
context tagging. This basically expands input recognition of areas to the
Tablet Input Panel.

Office XP was on the market before the Tablet PCs were created, so to
compensate and add Ink functionality for Tablets, the XP Add-on Pack was
created. Office 2003 was designed to encompass Tablet functionality, and
the update released last December caught up for some of the areas missed.

Hover,

We provide a Swedish Special Interest Dictionary (SPID) of over 200,000
words that can be added to your Tablet to provide Swedish handwriting
recognition. You can find information at the website in my sig.

In addition, the Free download, abletRecoDemo includes sample Swedish words
that you can test with prior to purchase.

Feel free to email should you have any additonal questions.

Regards,

Fritz
