He said that proofing tools will get a 'makeover,' since the Mac version will use the same APIs as Office 2010 (our Windows cousins!). The two new additions bring our offering to 13 languages! By 2008 we added Italian, Dutch, Finnish, Danish and Norwegian. I can reveal that we are adding 2 new languages to the Office family – Russian and Polish! We have come a long way since Office 2001 where we only offered 6 languages (English, Japanese, French, German, Spanish, Swedish). On Mac Mojo, the Office for Mac team's blog, International Project Manager Eric Paquin detailed some of the language and tools news: However, Mac language blogers complain that there's still no right-to-left (RTL) Unicode support. The forthcoming Mac version of Microsoft's Office suite will be localized for several more languages as well as pick up improved proofing tools.
