Points on writing handwritten characters

Paying attention to the following points will ensure that handwritten characters are 

easily recognized.

•   Write each individual stroke clearly. Ensure that characters have the correct 

number of strokes. 

•   Write clearly and do not use short or conventional forms. Avoid writing 

sloping characters.

•   On the single-frame or dual-frame pad, write lower case characters smaller 

to distinguish between identical-looking upper and lower case characters 

such as upper case “C” and lower case “c”. Small characters such as the 

small “

” should also be written smaller.

•   Write English letters in block form and do not attach ornamentation to the 

ends of strokes. 

•   When using frameless entry, write English characters separately, one at 

a time. You cannot write in cursive style or return to previously formed 

characters to add dots or crosses. 

•   When using frameless entry, write words on a single line. You cannot write 

on two lines. 

•   When writing letters, do not press hard; always write lightly.
