Graffiti tips
When using Graffiti, keep the following tips in mind:
• For greater accuracy, draw letters with large strokes; strokes that nearly fill
the Graffiti writing area are easily interpreted.
• To delete characters, set the insertion point to the right of the character you
want to delete, and draw the Backspace stroke (a line from right to left) in
the Graffiti writing area.
• Write at natural speed. Writing too slowly can produce errors.
• Do not write at a slant. Vertical strokes should be parallel to the sides of the
Graffiti writing area.
• When letters and numbers can be written using two different strokes, use the
one that’s easiest for you.
• Press firmly.
