Mobilewrite 3.7.3 User Guide
Documentation updated on April 20, 2009
Introduction
Using Mobilewrite, it is easy to enter text and data, in to your favorite
Palm OS applications such as Address, Memo Pad, Date Book etc. Text and data
can be entered by simply writing on the screen of your handheld, instead of
using a keyboard. This software recognizes regular printed letters and
Graffiti letters, numbers, symbols, and accented letters used in English,
French, German, Italian, Spanish, Dutch, Portuguese and other European
languages
System Requirements
- Palm OS 5.x and requires 300 Kb of free memory.
- A Sprint PCS Treo 650 may require the 1.12 ROM update or higher from Palm, to fix the digitizer problems. Without this update, Mobilewrite will not be able to draw smooth lines on the early Sprint Treo 650s. It was made available on June 16, 2005. Additional information is available on the Palm website in the Support area. Link:

Installation
How to unzip the
mobilewrite.zip file:
Double click on the mobilewrite.zip file, to start your zip program, and
then save the mobilewrite.prc and the manual on your PC. If you do not
have a zip program, to unpack the zip file, then please download and
install a free evaluation copy of Winzip from www.winzip.com. If you are
using a Mac, then please download and install the free Stuffit Expander
software from www.stuffit.com.
Important Installation Notes:
- If upgrading to a new version, disable the current version by deselecting the Enable Checkbox, otherwise, the new version will not install. There is no need to delete the existing version, the new version will replace the old one.
- This program works alongside with Graffiti and Graffiti 2 software. But if another handwriting recognition application is installed, besides Graffiti or Graffiti 2, or another program which processes strokes written on the screen, please turn it off first. More than one program which processes strokes written on the screen, will cause a conflict.
Quick installation:
- Double click on the mobilewrite.prc file. This will automatically load it into the Palm Desktop software. An install dialog window should pop up. Put your handheld into the cradle, and perform a HotSync. This will install Mobilewrite on to your handheld.
Manual installation (If Quick installation did not work):
- On Windows, bring up the Install Tool Dialog box in the Palm Desktop Software. In this dialog, press "Add" and then select the mobilewrite.prc file.
- On the Macintosh, run the HotSync Manager, and use the "Install Handheld Files..." menu item. Either drag the mobilewrite.prc file onto the window, or click the Add to List button and choose the mobilewrite.prc file.
- Put your handheld into the cradle, then perform a HotSync. This will install Mobilewrite on to your handheld.
Locating the Mobilewrite program
on your handheld after installation
The Mobilewrite program icon is a large red M, and it will appear on the Launcher screen (where all the application icons are displayed) after installation. If you do not see it, press the button on your handheld, which has a picture of a house on it repeatedly, until the word
"All" appears on the very first line on the handheld. When the word
"All'' is displayed, all the application icons will be shown, otherwise, only a subset will be displayed, which may not include the Mobilewrite program icon.
If you still do not see the Mobilewrite program icon, then reinstall it. After the hotsync finishes, a small window will popup on the screen of your desktop computer. On this window, there is a
View Log Button. Press this button and view the log to see if it installed Mobilewrite, and also check for errors.
If you do not see the Mobilewrite program icon, and have setup more than one handheld or more than one hotsync ID on your desktop computer, make sure you are selecting the correct hotsync ID, for syncing. You may be trying to install it on to the other handheld.
Removal
Mobilewrite can be removed from your handheld like any other application. First, deselect the Enable checkbox on the main screen of Mobilewrite. From the launcher screen (where all the application icons are displayed), press or select the menu button. A menu will popup. Under the "App" menu, select the Delete submenu. Then select Mobilewrite from the list, and press the Delete button. If you have entered shorthands, then you will need to delete MobileWriteData from the list also.
After Installation
Run Mobilewrite on your handheld, and press the Enable checkbox. After
Enabling, handwriting recognition will be available in other programs. Press
the Intro button for important tips, then press the Tutorial button to try the characters. The "Show" button in the Tutorial shows all the supported characters through animation. The buttons below each letter will animate only that letter. The online help only lists the important tips, refer to this manual for detailed information.
To enter data into Address, Memo Pad, Date Book, and other applications, simply write letters on the screen, instead of using the keyboard.
Purchase/Registration
Mobilewrite has a 15 day evaluation period, after this period, the software will stop working. To continue using this software after the evaluation period, it must be purchased. After purchasing this software, a registration code (also called a Serial Number) will be emailed to you. Enter this registration code in the Register screen to unlock this application.
You will be asked your HotSync user ID (Palm ID) during the purchase, in order to calculate the registration code. This ID is a name you gave to your handheld when it was first setup. The easiest way to locate this ID, is to look on the Registration screen of Mobilewrite. The ID is case sensitive, so it must be entered exactly as shown. If you do not provide your correct ID, the registration code will not unlock this application. If you have any problems with the registration code, please contact the place of purchase, and not the author of this program.
There is no need to download another version for registration, however, you may want to check for updates of this product.
Options On the Main Screen
- Enable Mobilewrite Checkbox - This checkbox must be enabled to use
Mobilewrite to enter data in other applications.
- Enable After Reset - If this is set to "Yes", Mobilewrite will be automatically enabled after a system reset. If it is set to "Ask", a popup window will be displayed after a reset. If too many resets are performed, one after another in a short period of time,
Mobilewrite will not re-enable itself automatically.
- Letter Options - This pops up the "Where To Write" screen. Three options are available, Print, Graffiti 2, and Graffiti 1.
- Write on screen Checkbox - If this option is selected, the strokes drawn on the screen will be recognized.
- Write in Input Box Checkbox - Some PDAs and Smartphones have a Graffiti input box below the screen. If this checkbox is selected, the strokes in this box will also be recognized. However, writing in the Graffiti input area is not recommended, since there is no visual feedback from the ink, which is needed for multi-stroke letters. Write on the screen instead.
- Show Ink Checkboxe- This turns on/off the temporary trail of ink from the stylus on the screen.
- Show Alternates checkbox - Allows alternate letters to be displayed in the upper left corner, described below.
- Int'l Letters checkbox - Enables/disables the International letters. Turning off the International letters, will slightly improve the speed and accuracy. If they are not needed, it is better to disable them.
- Your writing speed slider - Your Writing Speed slider is used to adjust the time limit for completing multi-stroke characters. If more time is needed, move the slider to the left. To write faster, move it to the right.
Letter Options
Advantages of using printed letters
- Familiar way of writing. Allows a word or several characters to be written across the screen, as it is done on paper.
- Supports Upper and Lowercase letters.
Advantages of using Graffiti 2 letters
- Letters are written in one place, on top of each other, so there is no need to be careful about leaving a gap between each letter, as you would have to when using printed letters. Also, there is no need to wait for the previous word to be recognized, before writing another.
- Has familiar letters, but only supports lowercase. To enter an uppercase, write it in the center.
- Since a subset of letters is available, accuracy and speed is better than printed letters.
- Writing in the center of the screen, to capitalize letters, may be more accurate for some, than writing large as is done when using printed letters.
- Similar to Graffiti 2, but many letters and symbols are simpler to write.
Advantages of using Graffiti 1 letters
- It is fast and accurate.
- Better for entering a lot of data. The letters are similar to capital letters, therefore, when learning this alphabet, think in capitals.
- Hard to remember symbols from Graffiti 1, have been replaced with regular symbols. The Graffiti 1 letters, numbers, and gestures have not changed, but some new ones have been added. See the Tutorial screen for all the available letters.
The tap mode for punctuation and other symbols is not supported since
tapping on the screen is used for pressing buttons and menus, instead of
entering the special tap mode.
- Uses 1 stroke letters, so there is no need to try and properly position the second stroke on top of the first stroke, as you would have to do when writing multi-stroke letters.
- Letters are written in one place, on top of each other, so there is no need to be careful about leaving a gap between each letter as you would have to when using printed letters. Also, there is no need to wait for the previous word to be recognized, before writing another.
- Each letter is designed to be different than the others, so letters such as "n" and "h" or "r" and "v" don't have to be written as carefully.
- Option to write in the center or use the shift stroke is available for capitalization.
- Extra letters, in addition to all the Graffiti letters are availble.
See the Tutorial.
Using the printed letters
- Write letters on the lower half of the screen, numbers, symbols on the upper half of the screen. For many letters, the size determines if the letter is uppercase or lowercase, as is done on paper. For uppercase, write it an inch or larger. This height can be reduced by selecting the "Smaller capitals" option, on the Where To Write screen, by first pressing the "Letter Options" button. In the Graffiti input box, write letters on the left, and numbers, symbols on the right side.
- When writing several letters across the screen, a gap must be present between each letter.
Using the Graffiti 2 letters
- Write on the left side for lowercase, center for capitals, right side for numbers and symbols.
Using the Graffiti 1 letters
- Write lowercase letters on the left side. If the "Write capitals in center" checkbox is set, writing in the center of the screen will produce capital letters. If not set, use the "Shift" stroke or the "Lock" strokes to capitalize. These strokes are displayed in the Gestures window on the Tutorial screen. The Lock strokes are used to set the shift lock. To get out of the Shift Lock setting, write the Shift stroke again. In the lower right corner, a shift and a shift lock indicator is displayed. These indicators look like small arrows pointing up.
Punctuation and Gestures may be written anywhere in all three options.
Supported Characters
All the supported characters and commands can be viewed in the Tutorial screen by pressing the "Show" button. Individual characters can be viewed by pressing the button below each character. The circular heavy dots indicate the start of a stroke. Notice the number of strokes required for each character and the direction of travel.
Using Mobilewrite
To begin, tap on the Enable checkbox. Mobilewrite runs in the background, and handwriting recognition will be available for use within other applications. To start entering text, set the focus in the field, where text is to be entered, by tapping on it. When the focus in on a field, a blinking cursor is visible inside the field.
- Entering a period or a Dot - When writing on the screen, a period or a dot is only recognized if it is written immediately following another character. This restriction enables taps on the screen to select buttons, checkboxes etc. Alternate ways of writing the period and the colon are available, see the Punctuation Tutorial screen.
- Turning Mobilewrite On or Off - Mobilewrite automatically turns on when there is a text field or a table present on a screen.
Mobilewrite may not be able to detect every type of a text field or a table. In this case, it will not turn on automatically and you will have to force it to turn on. You may also encounter a screen, which has a text field and a graphics area. Before you can draw in the graphics area,
Mobilewrite will have to be temporarily turned off. Two methods are available to turn
Mobilewrite on or off, they are described below.
- Temporarily turning the recognition on/off - If Mobilewrite does not turn on in an application or if you need to turn it off temporarily, press the stylus in the corner of the screen. If the selected "Method" is "Draw line from corner", on the Activation screen, then draw a small line away from the corner, in any direction. An On or Off message will be displayed. It resets when the current program exits.
- Turning the recognition on/off for an application - To always have
Mobilewrite either on or off in an application, the Application properties screen should be used. This screen is accessible from the Activation screen by pressing on the "Application Properties" button.
Find the application in the list, and use the checkboxes to either force it
to turn off, or on.
- Using the shorthand feature - A shorthand is useful for entering repetitive information on your Palm handheld. It is similar to the Palm OS shortcut feature, except that a shortcut stroke is not needed.
A shorthand called "brk" is already setup, as an example, to show you how
a shorthand works. (If you upgraded this program, from an earlier release, "brk"
will not be there). Whenever you write the word "brk", in a text
field, and then enter a space, the word "brk" will be replaced with
"Breakfast". You will want to setup your own shorthands for your Name,
address, email address etc. or any other information that you enter
repeatedly, so it can be entered with just 2 or 3 keystrokes. Everytime you enter a space, the
preceding word is checked to see if it matches a shorthand, so it can be
replaced. A word will only be replaced if it was entered without making corrections.
If you made a mistake while writing the shorthand, then you will have to
enter the whole word again. See section below on how to create
shorthands.
- Creating your own shorthands - You can setup your own shorthands using the Shorthand
screen, inside Mobilewrite. Up to 100 shorthand entries can be created, maximum size of the replacement text can be 1K. After entering shorthands, a file called "MobileWriteData" is created on your handheld, to store the shorthands. This is useful, when updating this program. If you retain this file, you will not have to enter all the shorthands again.
There are 3 macros that can be placed in the shorthand replacement text.
@dss will be replaced with the date stamp, @tss will be replaced with the
time stamp, and @dts, will be replaced with the date and time. The
format of the date and time stamps is determined by the settings for the
date and time in the Palm OS Prefs program.
- Palm OS Shortcut - Shortcut is a feature provided by Palm OS, and
not Mobilewrite. Shortcuts are different from shorthands. It is also useful for entering a
lot of repetitive information, just like MobileWrite's shorthand feature.
Palm has not provided this feature on all the handhelds, most Treos do not
have it.
Please refer to the manual for your handheld, to get more information about
this feature.
- Entering a Palm OS Command - There are one letter commands, written next to the menu items on the pulldown menus of many applications. This program however, does not have any, but many others do. To execute one of these commands using those letters, draw the Command stroke and then write the one letter command. On most PDAs, a toolbar is popped up after the Command stroke is drawn, in this case, instead of entering the one letter command, the command can be selected from the toolbar.
- Replacing a letter with an alternate - Alternate letters are displayed in the upper left corner. These letters will only appear if there are alternate characters to display. This feature makes it easier for the writer to complete an entire word and correct any problems later, instead of inspecting each letter as it is written. To make a change to a previously entered letter, first move the cursor behind the letter that needs a change. Then select one of the alternate letters in the upper left corner by tapping on it. Tap on the first letter to toggle upper/lower case. Tap on the second to replace with a close match. This is limited to the last 10 letters entered.
- Highlighting Text - To highlight a section of text in an input field, hold the stylus down for 1 second (until a clicking sound is heard) and then drag it over the text. To highlight a word, double tap on top of it. To highlight a sentence, triple tap on top of it. The highlighted text has a different background color than the regular text.
- Cut/Copy/Paste - These strokes are displayed on the Gestures screen in the tutorial. Before using the Cut or Copy strokes, the text must be highlighted as described above.
- Writing accented letters - Accents are added to the previous letter if written immediately (within
2 seconds) after entering the letter. The accents must be written in the same area as the Symbols and Numbers, this area depends on the options selected on the "Where To Write" screen. See above. The Palm OS Keyboard popup shows which letters can take accents.
- Entering symbols using the Mobilewrite keyboard - Many of the common symbols can be entered by
drawing them on the screen. These are shown on the Symbols Tutorial
screen. All the other symbols can be entered by drawing the Kbd stroke, which pops up the
Mobilewrite keyboard. The Kbd stroke is displayed in the Symbols Tutorial screen, and also the Gestures Tutorial screen.
Troubleshooting and Frequently Asked Questions
Mobilewrite does not work in ANY application
- Mobilewrite may be disabled. After a reset, it has to be enabled again by tapping on the Enable checkbox, if the "Enable after reset" option is not set to "Yes".
- This program works alongside with Graffiti and Graffiti 2 software. But if another handwriting recognition application, is installed, besides Graffiti or Graffiti 2 or another program, which processes strokes written on the screen, there may be a conflict.
- Make sure the checkboxes for the "Write on screen", and "Show Ink" options are set.
The trail of ink on the screen is not smooth
- Some screen protectors are too thick and reduce the accuracy of the
stylus. If you are using one, try without it, then purchase one which does
not interfere with handwriting recognition products.
- Write at your normal speed. When writing too fast or too slow, the lines will not be drawn smoothly. These lines reduce the accuracy.
- If you are using a Sprint PCS Treo 650, please read the notice in the Requirements section above.
- Gaps in the ink, while drawing the character, usually indicate that not enough pressure is being applied to the stylus.
- Your handheld may need calibration. Select the "Prefs" program from the Application Launcher screen. In the upper right corner, select "Digitizer" or "Touchscreen", and then follow the instructions for calibrating the digitizer.
- If the trail of ink is not smooth and it seems to jump from one point to another, try drawing the character near the corners of the screen and see if the same problem can be recreated. If this problem only happens in a particular spot on the screen, then there may be a problem with the digitizer in that location.
Mobilewrite does not work in ONE of my applications, but works in the others
- If an application is using custom input fields or tables, Mobilewrite will not be able to recognize it automatically and it will not turn on. But it can be forced to turn on, see the "Turning
Mobilewrite On or Off " section above.
- An input field does not have the focus. When the focus is on a field, a blinking vertical line can be seen inside the text field. Tap on a field, to set the input focus. Once in a while, the input focus can disappear, and then it may be difficult to figure out why this program has suddenly stopped recognizing letters. For example, this may happen if you touch a menu item with the stylus, in the middle of writing a long sentence.
Sometimes, a trail of ink is not displayed, or it is a different color or thickness, and the letter is not recognized
- When writing a letter, start moving the stylus as soon as it touches the screen. If it is held in one place, and later moved, this program assumes that a button is being pressed, and ignores it. If a trail of ink is seen with a different color or thickness, then it is being drawn by another handwriting recognition program, such as Graffiti 2. On many handhelds, to turn off Graffiti 2 screen writing, select the "Prefs" program and then select the "Writing Area" option.
How to improve the accuracy
- Write large characters, no smaller than 1/4 inch.
- Avoid writing letters, or lines within a letter at a slant.
- Some screen protectors are too thick and reduce the accuracy of the
stylus. If you are using one, try without it, then purchase one which does
not interfere with handwriting recognition products.
- When using printed letters, leave a gap between each letter when writing a word. Larger gaps improve accuracy.
- Your handheld may need calibration. Select the Prefs program from the Application Launcher screen. In the upper right corner, select "Digitizer" or "Touchscreen", and then follow the instructions for calibrating the digitizer.
- Keep your eyes on the stylus and the trail of ink, instead of the output.
- Write on the screen instead of the Graffiti area. When writing in the Graffiti area, there is no visual feedback from the ink. This is needed for writing multi-stroke letters with 3 and 4 strokes, and to know when this software is ready to accept more input. When the ink is erased, it is ready for more input.
- Write at your normal speed. When writing too fast or too slow, the lines will not be drawn smoothly. These lines reduce the accuracy.
- Mobilewrite only supports the standard printed style for each letter, or Graffiti letters. Avoid dragging the pen before or after each letter, or adding extra curls as if writing cursive letters.
- If more time is needed to write multi-stroke characters, increase the time limit on the main screen by moving the slider to the left.
There is too much delay,
Mobilewrite is running too slowly.
- On the main screen of Mobilewrite, move the "Your writing speed slider"
to the right, to reduce the delay.
- Check the "Info" screen to see how much storage memory is available on
your device. The Info screen can be accessed from the screen with all the
icons (Launcher screen) by pressing the menu button. If there is very little
room left, then some programs or data must be deleted. When there is not
enough memory, the handheld runs slowly and does not work properly.
- If you have installed too many programs which run in the
"background" like Mobilewrite, turn them off to see if that will help. Each
program uses up the RAM memory. These programs usually will perform some
useful function even though they are not showing on the screen. They include
launcher programs, volume control, word suggestion, spelling checkers etc.
- Sometimes, there are errors in the hotsync log, which give a clue to why
the handheld is not working correctly. To see this log, do a Hotsync, and
after it finishes, you will see a small popup window on your PC. Press the
"View Log" button on this small window. In the log, check for errors.
Sometimes it will complain about some important file or corrupted files.
The on screen Phone buttons on
the Treo, are less responsive
- You should turn Mobilewrite off on the Phone application. See the
"Turning Mobilewrite On or Off " section above.
Shorthands are not working
- A word will only be replaced if it was entered without making
corrections. If you made a mistake while writing the shorthand, then you
will have to enter the whole word again.
- A shorthand will replace a word after a space is entered, do not enter
the Palm OS shortcut stroke.
- Some programs automatically capitalize the first word in text fields.
In these fields, the shorthand will not work, since shorthands are case
sensitive.
How can I enter the Graffiti 1
tap mode, available on the older Palm handhelds ?
- The old symbols are not available in Mobilewrite. The reason for
that is that the new handhelds like the Treo don't have a dedicated Graffiti
area to write in. So the old way of tapping and getting into the symbols
mode, can't be implemented, since tapping on the screen usually means that a
person is trying to press a button, not get into symbols mode.
It is difficult to press buttons using the stylus, when
Mobilewrite is enabled.
- Your handheld may need calibration. Select the Prefs program from the Application Launcher screen. In the upper right corner, select "Digitizer" or "Touchscreen", and then follow the instructions for calibrating the digitizer.
Are there any known problems with any type of software ?
- Enabling more than one handwriting recognition program (besides
Graffiti) or another program which processes strokes written on the screen
will cause interference. You may see duplicate letters or missing
letters.
- If you have downloaded and installed a launcher program, try Mobilewrite after disabling it to see if there is an improvement in speed. Some launcher programs make the handheld respond slower.
- Mobilewrite checks every screen for input fields or tables, to decide if the recognition should be On or Off. On some screens, where there are custom fields or tables,
Mobilewrite may not automatically turn on or off. In these cases, the recognition can be manually turned On or Off, see the "Turning
Mobilewrite
On or Off " section above.
Alternate letters do not show in one of my applications, but work
in the other applications
- In some applications, Mobilewrite can not determine the location of the cursor,
because they are using custom fields. In these applications, the alternate letters will not show.
Recognized characters are totally wrong
- Letters and numbers have to be written on different parts of the screen, as explained above in the "Where to write" section. Try the Tutorial included in
Mobilewrite.
- Mobilewrite may be disabled, and another handwriting recognition product may be enabled on your handheld and is actually processing the stylus strokes.
- Your handheld may need calibration. Select the Prefs program from the Application Launcher screen. In the upper right corner, select "Digitizer" or "Touchscreen", and then follow the instructions for calibrating the digitizer.
Handheld occasionally resets
- Check if there is another handwriting recognition program installed and enabled on the handheld (Other than Graffiti), which may be causing a conflict.
- Some handhelds have resetting problems. Check Palm.com or the
website of the manufacturer if they have software updates for the handheld.
Can't enter a period or a dot
- See the " Entering a period or a Dot" section above.
Can't enter the letter "i"
- The vertical line must be drawn first then the dot on top. See the " Entering a period or a Dot" section above.
Can't enter the letter "t" or "f" when using Graffiti 2
or printed letters
- The vertical line must be drawn first, then the horizontal one.
Can't enter a Tab or Enter (New Line) in the Tutorial
- Tab and Enter only work in multi-line fields, they will not work in the Tutorial, since the field is only one line. Try them in the Palm OS Memo Pad program.
A particular character is not recognized
- Check the number of strokes and the direction of travel for that character in the Tutorial by pressing the button below the drawing of the character.
- Avoid writing slanted letters.
- Try drawing the letter on paper, and then comparing the starting and ending points with the one in the Tutorial.
Mobilewrite does not recognize any letters
for a few seconds after entering an application
- An input field does not have the focus. When the focus is on a field, a blinking vertical line can be seen inside the text field. Tap on a field, to set the input focus.
The stroke is not erased completely, there are stray marks on the screen
- Do not write on top of the blinking cursor.
The menu pops up when the
alternate letters are selected
- Your handheld may need calibration. Select the Prefs program from the Application Launcher screen. In the upper right corner, select "Digitizer" or "Touchscreen", and then follow the instructions for calibrating the digitizer.
It is difficult to enter data in small popup windows
- Since most windows are large and take up the entire screen area, this is a rare problem. But if the window is small and you write outside the bounds of this window, your handheld will beep. During this system beep, the location and the path of the stylus is not available to this program. This lack of data, sometimes causes wrong letters to be recognized, especially if you write fast. On most handhelds, in the Prefs program, under the "General" menu item, the System Sound can be turned off, which will correct this problem. You may encounter this problem, on some handhelds, if you are using printed letters, and try to enter Numbers or Symbols in the PalmOS "Find" window.
When Mobilewrite is launched from
the SD card, it is copied to the handheld
- Palm OS always copies a program started from the card, on to the
device before running it. After the program exits, Palm OS, removes it from
the handheld. But since Mobilewrite runs in the background, it is never
removed from the device. You will always see a copy of it on the device. So
it will still take up space on the handheld, even if it is started from the
card. Installing this program on the card, will not save any memory on
the handheld.
