Using the Number Area
The tables in this section show how to use the Simplified Uppercase Character Set to write letters, numbers, punctuation marks, editing marks, and symbols. For each character, the tables show alternatives for writing the characters. The dots indicate where the strokes begin; strokes with no dots can be written in either direction. Where appropriate, the stroke sequence is numbered.
In addition to numbers, you can enter punctuation and editing marks in the number area (123) of the input panel.
NOTE: A horizontal line drawn from left to right is recognized as a space character in the letter area of the input panel, and as a dash in the number area.
