The Graffiti 2 alphabet
Draw Graffiti 2 letters according to the following alphabet.
Write punctuation marks and other special characters
Using Graffiti 2 writing, you can create any punctuation symbol and special character available from a
standard keyboard.
•
Period and comma punctuation marks can be written on either side of the text input area (the letter or
number side).
•
Other common punctuation marks can be written on one side of the text input area according to the
chart below (in general, the more frequently used punctuation is on the left side).
•
Note:
punctuation characters can also be entered anywhere on the text input area if you first use the
shift character. This requires an additional shift stroke.
To write letters with accent marks:
•
First write the
letter stroke
on the left side (in center for uppercase) of the input area.
•
Then quickly write the
accent stroke
on the right side of the input area.
TIP:
To write uppercase accented characters, write the letter across the division mark, just as you would
do with an ordinary letter.
Graffiti 2 tips
For greater accuracy, draw letters
with large strokes; strokes that
nearly fill the text input area is
easily interpreted.
To delete characters, set the
insertion point to the right of the
character you want to delete, and
draw the backspace stroke (a line
from right to left) in the text input
area.
Write at natural speed. Writing
too slowly can produce errors.
Do not write at a slant. Keep
vertical strokes parallel to the
sides of the text input area.
Letters and numbers can be
written using two different
strokes.
Press firmly.
