Panasonic Hand Writing

Drawing Characters or Figures
Simple characters and figures like signatures and arrows can be made by using the
work surface of the touch pad or the touchscreen, and can be saved to a file as a bitmap
(.bmp) format.
Any change to the size of an image must be made before beginning to draw. If the
image size is changed after the drawing is completed, the image (quality) will not be
sharp.
Data can be copied to the clipboard with [Edit] - [Copy]. Copied data can be added to
other applications that support the bitmap format by using the paste function. Pasting
is not possible to applications that do not suppor t the bitmap format.
The size of a bitmap image to be saved or pasted to another application can be
changed with [Option] - [Window size].
Changing the number of colors of the display may affect the Panasonic Hand Writing
screen. If the screen is affected, right-click
by selecting [Exit Panasonic Hand Writing], and then run Panasonic Hand Writing
again.
Drawing accuracy may be degraded if another application, such as disk accessing, is
being executed simultaneously. Begin drawing after other applications have been
closed.
CAUTION
If a commercially-available pointing device (e.g., mouse) driver is installed and over-
writes the driver of the touch pad, Panasonic Hand Writing will no longer work.
