Chapter 5. The Basics of Using the Tablet PC's Pen

In This Chapter

• Highlight and erase mistakes with the pen

• Drawing versus writing—changing how OneNote interprets your input

You can use OneNote on a desktop, laptop, or a Tablet PC. Both desktop and laptop computers work with OneNote in a similar manner. You must use the keyboard to enter all of your text in OneNote. If you have a Tablet PC, however, you can use the Tablet's pen to enter information in OneNote. There are two different ways you can do this: through the Tablet PC's Input Panel and directly on the Tablet PC's screen. We'll cover both methods in this chapter.

If you don't have a Tablet PC, but are thinking about getting one, this chapter will show you some of the features you'll be able to take full advantage of within OneNote 2003.
