Tips for getting good recognition
•Write neatly.
•Write on the lines. 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 your device can easily tell where words begin and end.
