2.6 Using Transcriber

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.
Note For more information about using Transcriber, see Help on your device.
