Working with Livescribe Paper
Products
Livescribe prints notebooks, journals, flip notepads, and other Livescribe™ dot paper products for your
Livescribe™ smartpen. There is nothing special about the composition of the paper used for Livescribe
dot paper products. However, each page of Livescribe dot paper is printed with thousands of nearly-
invisible microdots arranged in a special pattern. Livescribe dot paper products sometimes re-use dot
pattern. As a general rule,
do not use Livescribe dot paper products with the same dot pattern at the
same time
.
