Panasonic Hand Writing
Windows 98
Simple characters and figures like signatures and arrows can be made by using the
touchscreen or the work surface of the touch pad, 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 file 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, click
on the taskbar with the right mouse button,
close the application 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 only after other applications have
been closed.
