Using the Paper Replay™
Application
With the Paper Replay™ application, your smartpen records audio and links it to what you write. Later,
you can tap on any of your notes and hear the audio recorded from that moment.
Whenever you turn on the Livescribe smartpen, it captures a digital copy of your notes, whether or not
you also choose to record audio.
The Paper Replay™ control bar printed at the bottom of every notebook page lets you begin and end a
recording as well as manipulate the playback of your recording.

:
The Paper Replay™ printed controls are not page-specific. You can tap Record on one page,
begin recording, and then tap Stop on a different page and the Livescribe smartpen will stop
recording.
About Paper Replay™ Sessions
When you begin recording with the Livescribe smartpen, your smartpen automatically links the audio
to anything you write on Livescribe™ dot paper. The recorded audio (and any associated written
notes) is called a
Paper Replay™ session
. A session begins when you start recording audio and ends
when you stop recording audio. A paused recording is still one session. A session always contains
audio and optionally can contain associated written notes (pages).
A session can be any length of time and does not necessarily equal a single page. For example, if you
start and stop recording multiple times per page, you will have multiple Paper Replay™ sessions on
one page. Conversely, you may also have one Paper Replay™ session that spans multiple pages.
The Paper Replay™ playback controls such as jump, position bar, and bookmark, function within a
single Paper Replay™ session. You can jump forward or back or speed listen to only one Paper
Replay™ session at a time. If you created multiple Paper Replay™ sessions on one page, you will
need to tap on the notes associated with the specific desired recording to begin playback. After starting
playback, you can then use the playback or bookmark controls to listen to that session.
