2.5 Using Transcriber

Transcriber is a handwriting recognition program that allows you to write in cursive, print, or a combination of both. Transcriber works transparently in the background of programs, recognizing words with its integrated dictionary. When Transcriber is turned on, it interprets stylus movement anywhere on the screen as handwriting input. For more information about using Transcriber, see Help on your device.

To start Transcriber:

1.Start a program that accepts user input, such as Word Mobile.

2.Tap the Input Selector arrow, and then tap Transcriber. The Transcriber introductory screen appears.

To write using Transcriber:

1.From the Transcriber Info screen, tap OK to display your program’s entry screen.

2.Use your stylus to write or print your input text. Transcriber will wait until you pause and then convert your entry into typed text.

To enter punctuation and symbols:

Transcriber comes with an on-screen keyboard that provides an easy way to add punctuation or a special symbol to

existing text.

In a program, tap on the Transcriber toolbar. The keyboard remains visible until you tap the button again.

Tips:

To reposition the keyboard, tap and hold the title bar, then drag to the desired location.
