Using Graffiti writing to enter data
In this section you learn the procedures for creating letters, numbers, punctuation,
and symbols, as well as some Graffiti tips and tricks.
Most people find they can enter text quickly and accurately with only minutes of
practice. Graffiti writing includes any character you can type on a standard
keyboard. The Graffiti characters closely resemble the uppercase letters of the
regular alphabet, which makes Graffiti writing easy to learn.
There are four basic concepts for success with Graffiti writing:
■
If you draw the character shape exactly as shown in the tables later in this
chapter (like the shapes shown in the following diagram), you can achieve close
to 100 percent accuracy.
■
The heavy dot on each shape shows where to begin the stroke. Certain
characters have similar shapes but different beginning and end points. Always
begin the stroke at the heavy dot. (You should not create the heavy dot; it is
there only to show you where to begin the stroke.)
