Entering text and handwriting recognition

You can enter text by either tapping characters on an on-screen keyboard or writing on a virtual note pad. When you write on the writing pad, your handwriting converts to digital ink. “Digital inking” refers to the process of converting your handwriting to text. In the following picture of the writing pad, someone started writing Motion Computing and “Motion” has already been converted into digital ink.
