SmartPad Desktop software installed on your Windows PC
When you HotSync your Palm organizer with your Windows PC, all of your
SmartPad notes are automatically copied to the PC and saved for use by your
SmartPad desktop software.  This software allows you to view, print, and even e-
mail your Ink Note file images from your PC.
SmartPad Features
Once you have installed the SmartPad software, SmartPad works instantly and
automatically to transfer your handwritten notes into your Palm organizer.
SmartPad features include:
n An easy user interface.  Just touch the pen to the pad, and you’re automati-
cally storing your handwritten data!
n Each Ink Note can have up to 16 pages of handwritten data.  With the Palm
organizer you can easily view the contents of each page, and make additions
as necessary.
n You can zoom to enlarge the view of the written notes on the Palm organizer,
and pan to move the position of the image on the screen.  You can easily
zoom up to 4x magnification to view the smallest details of your handwritten
notes on the Palm organizer.
n SmartPad’s sleep mode integrates with the Palm organizer’s “auto-off”
feature.  If your Palm organizer is set for “auto-off after: 2 minutes” (and
you’re using the SmartPad), the Palm organizer will go into “sleep mode” to
conserve power after two minutes.  However, the infrared communication
between SmartPad and your Palm organizer will remain active.  Even though
the screen is blank, the Palm organizer will instantly awaken when you touch
the SmartPen to the pad, and you can continue taking notes.  If you don’t use
your SmartPad for 30 minutes, the “sleep mode” will finally turn off the
infrared communications with the SmartPad and then completely turn off
your Palm organizer.
n SmartPad will automatically name an Ink Note file based upon the applica-
tion you’re currently using.  You can also associate an Ink Note file with any
record in the selected application, or change the name of the Ink Note file.
n Ability to send a written Ink Note as an e-mail message.  If you have a Palm
Modem™ connected to your Palm organizer, you can use an application such
as MultiMail Pro software to transmit your written notes as an e-mail
message.
