Using Character Recognizer, you can write characters directly on your HP
Jornada screen with your stylus, just as you would on a piece of paper. The
characters you write are translated into typed text. Use Character Recognizer
anywhere you want to enter text; for example, to write a note or to fill in fields
in a dialog box.

The default writing mode for Character Recognizer is lowercase (Jot-
compatible) mode. In this mode, you write characters in lowercase. The chart
at the end of this appendix contains examples of how to write characters in
lowercase mode. You can also choose to write in uppercase (Graffiti-
compatible) mode. In this mode, you write characters in uppercase. If you
prefer to write in uppercase mode, tap Uppercase Mode in Options on the
input method menu. Whether a letter appears in uppercase or lowercase when
it is converted to typed text depends on where in the Input panel you write it,
not on the mode you have selected.

The Character Recognizer Input panel is divided into three writing areas.
Letters written in the left area (labeled ABC) create uppercase letters, and
letters written in the middle area (labeled abc) create lowercase letters. Use
the right area (labeled 123) for writing numbers, symbols, special characters,
and punctuation.
