    Hi Tom
    This is a brilliant site which shed - at least some - light on to why inserting turkish text from a word document into InDesign for the Mac is such a hassle.

    Hi Tom,

    Thanks for a useful site!

    I was wondering if you know of any resources for multilingual voice input/speech recognition (on Mac or PC). All of the information I have found so far has been about reading and writing, with a little covering multilingual audio.

    Thanks!

    Sorry, no. You might want to ask these folks

    http://www.macspeech.com/

    what languages besides English they currently support.

    Thanks for link Tom. :-)

    Unfortunately MacSpeech Dictate is only in English. A sales representative mentioned that they are aiming for multilingual, but there is no time frame set at the moment.
