The Writing Process
This chapter begins a series of three chapters that describe the three main
stages of converting pen input into valid computer data. This chapter looks at
the writing process. The next two chapters discuss the processes of inking and
recognition.
The writing process includes the various ways a user can write input to a
pen-based application. These involve not only writing words and scribbling figures
with a pen, but also gesturing with predefined pen movements and tapping an
on-screen keyboard.
This chapter is divided into three main sections, each discussing a different
method by which an application can accept writing from the pen. The first
section describes the pen edit controls, which are pen-based versions of a standard
Windows edit control. The second section discusses
ink input application programming interface (API) services, which allow an application
to govern pen interaction at a lower level than edit controls. The final
section briefly describes the on-screen keyboard.
