Using Ink Aware

Ink Aware integrates SMART software with applications including Microsoft Word,
Excel® or PowerPoint®. When you use an application that is Ink Aware, whatever you
write or draw on your interactive whiteboard becomes embedded in the file, rather
than an external note created over the file.
1. Press the SMART software icon in the Windows notification area or Mac Dock,
and then select Control Panel.
The SMART control panel opens.
2. Press Configure SMART Tools.
3. Press Ink Aware Program Settings.
The Aware dialog box appears. You can enable or disable Ink Aware for any of
the programs in the list.

After you install your SMART software, you can find more resources and updates at
smarttech.com/support. You can also check for software updates with SMART
Product Update by selecting Help > Check for Updates in the software.

whiteboard, see the software's Help files.
1. Start your SMART software program.
2. Press Help > Check for Updates.
If you don't see the Check for Updates option, contact your network administrator.
