Tips for getting good writing recognition
• Write neatly.
• Write on the line and draw descenders below the line. Write the cross of
the “t” and apostrophes below the top line so that they are not confused
with the word above. Write periods and commas above the line.
• For better recognition, try increasing the zoom level to 300% using the
Tools menu.
• Write the letters of a word closely and leave big gaps between words so
that the device can easily tell where the words begin and end.
• Hyphenated words, foreign words that use special characters such as
accents, and some punctuation cannot be converted.
• If you add writing to a word to change it (such as changing a “3” to an “8”)
after you attempt to recognize the word, the writing you add will not
included if you attempt to recognize the writing again.
