Text gitch in Mac OS

It is still recommended to use Japanese MacOS system, Japanese fonts still have some problems,otherwise the text in dialog box and other places is still gitch.
Install Japanese language pack for non Japanese MacOS
  • Put the installation disk consistent with the current MacOS version
  • Select CD-ROM boot, select installation function, and select Japanese language pack in the optional components menu.
  • Ensure that the Japanese language pack is installed.
