I was just curious how most people input Japanese characters into an SRS that isn't copied and pasted on the computer. I use a Mac and from what I've read, Microsoft Word can be used as a Japanese word processor but I don't have the discs so I can't install the necessary stuff. I'm sorry if this question has been asked multiple times before but I'm still somewhat new. =P Thanks for your help!

I input it directly into the SRS via typing. you should be able to change the language really easy on a mac since I think it ships with a bunch of other languages.
