Now, my dilemma was that the PC I was using wasn't installed with the Chinese language packs. I had to look around the Net for Chinese translation sites just so I could generate Chinese characters. Good thing I stumbled on nciku. It has this nifty feature where you could write down the Chinese character (using your mouse) and it will list down the characters with similar strokes. So all I needed to do was to copy them onto my envelope draft and print them out :)
While working on our invites, I had the problem on how to print out Chinese names on our envelopes. Though I could write them myself, I wasn't sure that my handwriting is really that good plus I was going after the uniform look for the labels. So the idea of writing it by hand was scrapped since my handwriting might be legible on one envelope and then might resemble chicken scratches on the next :P Now, my dilemma was that the PC I was using wasn't installed with the Chinese language packs.
