Tips for better handwriting recognition
Writing is one of the most convenient ways to put
information into your MessagePad. There are several tips to
keep in mind while you are writing. Most of these tips are
common sense, and they’ll help the MessagePad interpret
your handwriting more accurately.
m Write at an even pace.
Don’t pause in the middle of a word. Finish what you
write–don’t go back to a word to change it until you’ve
finished writing it.
m You don’t have to wait for a word to be recognized to
continue writing.
m Write simply and neatly.
Avoid adding flourishes, like serifs, to your letters. Don’t
write at too much of an angle or slant your characters. Close
your letters properly.
m Exaggerate the space between words, but not between
letters.
This helps your MessagePad determine when one word ends
and another one begins.
m Write capital letters and tall letters (such as t and l) so they
are twice as tall as small letters.
m Correct as you go.
Write a few words, then wait while your MessagePad
recognizes them. If there are mistakes, go back and fix them
one at a time. If you don’t, your MessagePad will assume the
word is correct and will adjust its recognition accordingly.

Writing and Drawing
Tap a letter form once to select it. Tap it again to see how it’s
written (notice the direction of the strokes). Then tap Often,
Rarely, or Never to indicate how often you write the letter
this way. (If more than one form is boxed, your choice will
affect all the forms in the box.)
Fine Tuning
Use this to let the MessagePad know how fast to recognize
and transform your handwriting.
Use default settings
If you wish to discard all the Letter Styles preferences you’ve
set and everything the MessagePad has learned about your
handwriting, tap “Use Default Settings.”
