Tips for getting good recognition
• Write neatly.
• Write on the lines and let descenders,
e.g., the tails of a g or a q, go below the
line. Write the cross of the “t” and
apostrophes below the top line so that
they are not confused with the word
above. Write periods and commas above
the bottom line.
• For better recognition, try increasing the
zoom level to the maximum using the
Menu
→
Zoom
menu.
• Write the characters of a word closely and
leave big gaps between words so that the
phone can easily tell where words begin
and end.
