SmartPad Desktop Software

This chapter explains how to use the SmartPad desktop software that is included
with SmartPad.

The SmartPad desktop software is designed to work with the handwritten
information that you create with SmartPad.  With the SmartPad desktop software,
you can:
n Select and view any of the Ink Notes that you have created with SmartPad and

your Palm organizer.

n Easily move among the 16 pages that can be a part of a single Ink Note.
n Change the line width of your handwritten data.  With the different widths

available, you can easily view your Ink Notes on any kind of computer
monitor.

n Save the individual page images as separate files.  You can save the images in

either bitmap (.bmp) or GIF (.gif) file formats.  This makes it easy to work
with your handwritten notes in other software applications.

n Seamlessly e-mail Ink Notes (in GIF or EDF format) over the Internet.
