This article was previously published under Q118496 SUMMARY
IMEs (Input Method Editors) are dynamic-link libraries that allow users to
type complex ideographic characters using a standard keyboard. IMEs are
available in Asian versions of the Microsoft Windows operating system, and
help minimize the effort needed by users to enter text containing
characters from Unicode and double-byte character sets (DBCS). IMEs relieve
users of the need to remember all possible character values. Instead, IMEs
monitor the user's keystrokes, anticipate the character the user may want,
and present a list of candidate characters from which to choose.
