How can I uninstall CJKOS ?
1. Disable CJKOS by unchecking "CJKOS->Enable CJKOS" checkbox.
2. Delete it using cManager->MENU->Delete or other File manager applications
Can I install a compact size of CJKOS instead of a full one?
Certainly you can. Most of the resources CJKOS applying are used to store sorts of font databases, Input methods and phrase databases. Therefore, You're recommended to install a compact size of CJKOS, so that you can save a lot of useful and valuable spaces accordingly. You can get more details under the topic of "Installation sample".
Can CJKOS display both the Simplified and the Traditional Chinese simultaneously if I choose to install only one of their font databases?
Yes. This feature is also one of the most powerful and advanced funtions in CJKOS. i.e Users can easily view Simplified Chinese while only installing the traditional Chinese font database; and vice versa. The followings are the detailed steps:
  1. To display Simplified Chinese with the Traditional Chinese font database supporting: You should firstly install the code transform table named "GBxBIG5.PDB" and the Traditional Chinese font database, and set the item of "Display" to "BIG5", followed by setting "CharSet" to "GB".
  2. To display Traditional Chinese with the Simplified Chinese font database supporting: You should firstly install the code transform table named "GBxBIG5.PDB" and the Simplified Chinese font database, and set the item of "Display" to "GB", followed by setting "CharSet" to "BIG5".
Note: To display both Simplified and Traditional Chinese simultaneously under either of the above conditions, it is requested to set the status of "Smart Detect Char Set" to be active.
Why CJKOS is slow to respond for some certain Input Methods(i.e. CangJie )?
This problem is caused by activating the function of "Phrase Input " . To save inputting time , you're recommened to give it up, especially when you're choosing any Input Method based on word-shape and with little multiple-codes,such as the input method of Cangjie.
In the case of Small Font, Handwriting-stroke can't display clear, how to improve it?
You can turn to "Large Font" or "Large Bold Font" to make it better.
Why should it display some black boxes in CJKOS occasionally?
When CJKOS meets a word which is enclosed in the current Charset but there is no word-shape display data for it in the font database of current Charset, it will display a black box instead of the word. This problem may be caused when you've installed the light version of font database for current Charset. In that case, CJKOS can't find the exact font data to display some infrequently used words, so it will display black box instead. To install the full version of the font database should be an efficient solution for it.
Occasionally, Why would it display disorderly after "Smart Detect" is set "on"?
Currently, CJKOS can't recognize Simplified(GB) and Traditional(Big5) Chinese words perfectly, especially when only a few words should be displayed at one time.
A good solution for this problem is to install the database of GBxBIG5.PDB, which can help CJKOS to identify these two kinds of Chinese words well. Since V1.32 of CJKOS, this situation has been improved much. Now the accuracy of identifying CJK sentences can reach to 99.9% or even higher.
Why "Large Font" set in MemoPad would be changed into "Large Bold Font" when Memopad was restarted?
Generally, it is caused when you're running PalmOS 3 on some palm PDA products, such as Palm III or higher than that. For Memopads in these products, "Large Font" is forbidden to use and will be changed to "Large Bold Font". Therefore, "Large Font" you've activated can only work till you cancel MemoPad.
Sometimes, CJK words display messy in some browsers such as Avantgo, why?
In Avantgo, there might be two possible reasons as following:

1) Due to that some of CJK words only displays half of their shapes.
2) Due to that half of a CJK word might be wraped to a new line.

For the above two cases, the first problem has been solved in CJKOS v1.31, while the second one solved in CJKOS v1.33. The second one is a typical fault when applying Chinese, Japanese or Korean words on a system platform on the basis of English-language. Avantgo manage wrapping lines in its own way passbying the default system platform, so that the last CJKOS word at the end of a line might be split into two parts, and be located separately on different lines. The feature of "Fix Messy Display" can be used to solve the above two problems.
Why would some CJK words be displayed missing the top-line or bottom-line in QuickSheet?
In QuickSheet, When you brighten one cell which is enclosed a CJK word, and turn to select another one, the topline and bottomline of the CJK word in the first cell will become two space lines, that you can't see this kind of CJK words clearly. This is caused by QuickSheet itself. Even it is the same for some English letters such as "pqgyj", you can try to refresh the active electric form to improve it.
After the feature of "Fix Messy Display" is selected, some of the English characters will be displayed as certain CJK ones, why?
In some English version software, Extended characters in PalmOS might be programmed as specific symbols(i.e. TM,(C), etc.). It is very possible for these symbols , located at the end of a line, have chances to combine with the first letter at the beginning of the next line to be a Traditional Chinese or Shift-JIS Japanese character. By now, the feature of "Fix messy Display " still can't solve this problem very well. However, you can enable or disable this feature freely for help.
Why the spacing between the English words would be widened in the case of browsing English Channels in AvantGo?
Generally, it comes to appear because you choose to enable the feature of "Fix Messy Display". Nowaday, It is a lack of the feature of "Fix Messy display". It is recommended to disable this feature when you're browsing an English Channel.
Occasionally, a chain of Chinese characters which would be wrapped into several lines can't be displayed correctly in the Week View of DateBk3, even if "fix messy display" is selected. Why?
Such a problem is alike to what occurs in AvanGo. After DateBk3 wraps lines, it will display them one by one in reverse order, that is, it will begin displaying from the last line to the first one, in order to decline every line's height so that it can display as many lines as possible in a screen. By now, no appropriate solution has been given yet.
Why the CJK characters in some emails transferred from Palm Desktop will be messy, A bug for CJKOS?
Generally, E-Mail application running on Desktop can support many format standards (i.e. uuencode, MIME, text, HTML, HZ, etc.). After a mail file is filtered by a specific mailing application, CJK characters in the mail file should have been changed so much, that only those applications supporting the same format standard could make those characters readable again. The mailing application on Palm is just a simple one in the term of functions. Therefore, when it meets a mail with an unknown format standard, it will treat the mail in a common format. That is why it makes some CJK characters unreadable in some mail files. As a suggestion, you'd better try to apply common format rather than some special ones(i.e. MIME, HTML, HZ, etc.). Besides that, users can try to find other ways to avoid such troubles in your application.
CJKOS only supports to display CJK characters without any transformation on any mails, so it couldn't be the reason why causes E-Mail messy.
