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 tap Transcriber. The
Transcriber introductory screen appears.
To write using Transcriber
1. In a program, position the cursor where you want text to appear.
2. Use the stylus to write anywhere on the screen. The handwriting
will be converted to text shortly after you lift the stylus from the
screen.
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.
• From 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.
When no text is selected, you can also open the keyboard by doing
the
gesture.
