• For better recognition, try increasing the zoom level to 300% by using
the Tools menu. Recognition does not work well below a 150% zoom
level.
• Write the letters of a word closely and leave big gaps between words so
that the CN30 Mobile Computer can easily tell where 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 is not
included if you attempt to recognize the writing again.
Drawing on the Screen
You can draw on the screen in the same way that you write on the
screen. The difference between writing and drawing on the screen is
how you select items and how they are edited. For example, you can
resize selected drawings, while you cannot resize writing.
Creating a Drawing
• S Cross three ruled lines on your firststroke. A drawing box appears. Sub-
sequent strokes in or touching the drawing box become part of the draw-
ing. Drawings that do notcross three ruled lines are treated as writing.
The drawing box indicates the boundaries of the drawing.
