Japanese Input Method Editor options

Microsoft Office Word 2003

IME Control Active
Automatically turns the Japanese Input Method Editor on or off when the application is turned on or off. This option is visible only if, in Microsoft Office Language Settings, you chose Japanese as the language that defines default behavior in Office programs.
IME TrueInline
Displays undetermined text in the same manner as text at the insertion point, with word-wrapping as necessary.
Undetermined String Colors
Changes the color of undetermined text in the Japanese Input Method Editor. This option is only available with IME Standard, not Microsoft Natural Input.
IME Settings
Displays the Properties dialog box of the Microsoft Japanese IME in use, making it possible to change environment settings such as the input method and dictionary file settings.

ShowTip

When the Japanese IME is active and the Function Key Display toolbar is showing, the Function Key Display toolbar shows functions specific to Japanese text entry, such as conversion to katakana, and half-width text.
