 Entering data in your 

Acer s10

You can enter data into your Acer s10 in several ways:

• Using Graffiti

• Using the onscreen keyboard

• Using an external keyboard

• Importing data in Palm Desktop software and then synchronizing it with your 

Acer s10

• Beaming data from another Palm OS handheld that is close by and has an 

infrared port

Entering data using Graffiti 

You can use Graffiti writing commands to create letters, numbers, punctuation, and 
symbols. The Graffiti writing strokes include all letters, numbers, and symbols found 
on a standard keyboard.

The similarity of Graffiti strokes with the uppercase letters of the standard English

practice, you’ll be able to enter accurate text and numbers using Graffiti writing 
strokes. 

General guidelines in Graffiti writing 

• To achieve 100% accuracy, practice drawing characters exactly as they appear 

in the tables later in this chapter.

• The heavy dot on each shape indicates where to start the stroke. Some 

characters have similar shapes, but different starting and ending points. 
Always start the stroke at the heavy dot. (Do not draw the heavy dot; it is 
there only as a guideline.) 

• Most characters require only a single stroke. When you lift the stylus from the 

Graffiti writing area, Acer s10 recognizes and displays the text character 
immediately. 

• The Graffiti writing area is divided into two parts, one for writing letters and 

one for writing numbers. The small marks at the top and bottom of the 
Graffiti writing area indicate these two areas. To have your Acer s10
