Part 3
Inputting Characters, Symbols, and Illustrations
This part of the manual tells you how to input characters. To make things easier to under-
stand, we call everything you input a character regardless of whether it is actually a letter,
number, or symbol. Explanations here all use the default settings that are in effect from the
initial power-on screen.
For information on using other fonts, styles, effects and characters sizes, see page 27.
Important!
• You can input up to 127 characters. Further input becomes impossible after you input the
127th character.

• Function indicator
This indicator appears when you press FUNC. Pressing a key while this indicator is on the
display causes the function marked above that key to be executed.
• Shift indicator
This indicator appears when you press SHIFT. While this indicator is on the display, the
keyboard is shifted, so the letter keys input upper-case alpha characters. The number keys
input the punctuation symbols marked in the upper right corners of the keys.
If both the caps mode indicator and the shift indicator are shown on the display, the key-
board is shifted to lower-case input.
The keyboard is unshifted (and the shift indicator disappears) as soon as you input a char-
acter.
