Introduction
InterType is a set of software components allowing Palm
powered devices based on Palm OS 5.x (a.k.a. Palm OS Garnet) to
display and accept additional alphabets and languages. Only
American and Pan-European versions of Palm OS 5.x are
supported, due to core differences with the Japanese and Chinese
builds of the OS.
Further, not all languages can be added via InterType: the
same limitation that had caused the device manufacturer to make
separate American and Far East releases is actually preventing from
adding Far East languages to a western device (see
below).
Note: Due to the application specifics there is no trial
download available for the product. Please make sure to read all
product features and limitations before placing an order.
InterType Serbian Localization Kit
Localization is pretty much essential for anyone whose
native language is not among the ones built in the original device
configuration. Even if you know English or German or Spanish well
enough, if you are a native Serbian speaker, you would likely be
receiving emails in Serbian, reading Serbian websites and having
contacts in Serbian. Therefore, you would likely need to have
Serbian localization for Palm, not just an
application-by-application solution.
Without attempting to completely turn the device to
Serbian, InterType addresses the very need to be able to read and
write other languages in every application.
An excellent Serbian localization for Palm, InterType is one of the
very few applications ever to bring Serbian language to Palm
devices.
Features

the stock configuration
Provides appropriate system fonts for the supported
languages (standard, high resolution and Sony CLIE small
fonts)
Provides variety of language-specific alternate

applications
Comes with PalmType, a version of the localization kit
for devices running older Palm OS versions (Note that PalmType does
not support Turkish and Greek Localizations!)

Bulgarian, Macedonian, Russian, Serbian, Ukrainian)
Greek (CP 1253: Greek)
Turkish (CP Latin 5: Turkish)
How does it
work?
As of version 5.2 of Palm OS, the American and
European Palm OS devices are using a single-byte code
page, meaning they can only display and distinguish among 256
unique system characters.
Alternatively, in the Japanese builds of the OS a
character is represent by two bytes, allowing for much more
unique characters.
Unicode
is a standard for using the two bytes to describe a
character allowing representation of all world languages;
unfortunately, it is not applicable to the American and
Pan-European versions of the Palm OS devices.
The lower 128 characters of all code pages, regardless of
whether 1 or 2 bytes, are standardized and match the American
Standard Code for Information Interchange (ASCII). This is where
the Latin alphabet, the digits, punctuation marks and a few other
special characters are.
The upper 128 characters available in a single-byte
systems is where usually the alternate languages are.
By default, all Palm devices contain the standardized
extended Latin code page. The upper page contains the accented
Latin characters used by various Western-European languages like
German, French, Italian etc.
Caution: adding any other language (e.g. Russian) to
the device is only convenient if it is located at the upper 128
characters of the available system table and as such is only
possible at the price of [temporary] losing the characters
available there.
The directly viewable result of installing any such
localization enhancement on a single-byte system is that some
Western-European characters across the device suddenly start
looking oddly. It is important to know that it is only the
appearance of the documents that is affected (as a result of
changing the character glyphs for the upper half of the alphabet);
the actual documents are not.
In a nutshell, all localization programs replace several
system resources, providing more or less of the functionality
needed to read, enter and manipulate (for example sort) alphabets
for particular language.
When first run InterType installs some operating system
enhancement and replacement modules. This is not what a usual
software application does. Once installed, these modules become
part of the operating system. It would be unwise then to simply
remove the program from the device using the classic "Delete"
command from the main application launcher or any similar
alternative.
Instead, you would want to first "uninstall" the program's
extensions from the operating system and then eventually remove it
the regular way. InterType provides a special button in its main
form for this purpose.
Because of its specific nature InterType requires a soft
device reset any time it has to install or uninstall its components
in the operating system.
