I succeeded to make  a graft system by above information. My graft
system is for Japanese-Kanzi and Hebrew on standard USA system version
6.0.3. I use Kanzi J1-6.0.2 and HB6.0.3 resources and other files.

compatibility. The name of which is "WordMaker". It is lower price
than MacWrite5.0 in the market.
