SETTING UP YOUR WORK AREA
To minimize fatigue, organize your work area so you can work comfortably. Position your tablet, input tools,
and keyboard for easy access without unnecessary reaching. Position your display so you can view it
comfortably with a minimum of eyestrain. For best results, orient the tablet so the screen cursor follows the
same direction as your hand movements on the tablet.
