Gaiji DX with ATOK and Input-Method Dictionaries

How Enfour Gaiji DX worked with ATOK12–14, Kotoeri, and other input methods, including the gaiji dictionary files and IM Display font.

At a glance

Enfour supplied dictionary files so gaiji from the Gaiji DX Series could be typed with Japanese input methods such as ATOK and Kotoeri. For ATOK12 to ATOK14, where some gaiji such as circled numbers could not be entered, Enfour provided the Enfour Gaiji DX IM Display font for ATOK’s candidate window.

Gaiji DX Support for ATOK12/13/14

Gaiji DX support for ATOK12, 13, and 14

This page explains how the Gaiji DX Series works with ATOK12 to 14.

Registering the dictionaries for ATOK12–14

These steps assume ATOK12, 13, or 14 is already installed.

Downloading and registering the dictionary 1. Download the dictionary for your ATOK version from the Gaiji DX Series dictionary download page. 2. Copy the downloaded and decompressed dictionary file into the “ATOK○○ folder” inside the Extensions folder (○○ is your ATOK version: 12, 13, or 14). 3. Open “Preferences” from the pencil menu at the top right of the screen and register the dictionary (as a supplementary dictionary) under “Dictionary/Learning”.

Downloading and setting the display font On Mac OS 8.5 to Mac OS 9, a system specification change means Enfour gaiji can no longer be shown in the kanji converter’s candidate list. To fix this, the candidate display font must be switched to “Enfour Gaiji Mincho L” or “Enfour Gaiji Gothic M”. With ATOK12–14, however, some gaiji (such as circled 1 and parenthesized 1) are not called up correctly when the font is set to “Enfour Gaiji ××”.

The “Enfour Gaiji DX IM Display” file is designed so that ATOK12–14 call up the gaiji that match their readings. Download it and set it as ATOK’s candidate display font and conversion window display font.
