1 Overview
Thank you for choosing to purchase this efficient, quality product! The STAEDTLER digital pen allows all handwritten notes and
sketches on regular paper to be recorded and stored in the internal Flash memory.

Recorded notes can then be uploaded onto the computer, tablet or smartphone via Bluetooth® or USB connection.
Comprising of a writing implement and a receiver, the STAEDTLER digital pen combines ultrasonic and infrared technologies with sophisticated algorithms. This provides a precise tracking and positioning system which traces movement of the pen tip on any surface and converts it into a vector image of the user's handwriting. The digital pen transfers this vector image to the receiver for storage.
1.1 Key features
Record handwritten notes and sketches, even when no computer
is immediately at hand. Store handwritten notes in the integrated Flash memory. Download the recorded handwritten notes via Bluetooth® on your
PC, smartphone (BlackBerry® and iPhone) or tablet (iPad) or via
USB connection on your computer. Functions as a digital pen to write directly into Windows and Office
2007. Selectable mouse indicator function. No special paper necessary.

This is stored on the Mac computer in TIFF-format when uploading
the handwritten notes onto the Mac computer via the Note Manager software. Notes in TIFF format, however, cannot be transferred in the MyScript Studio Notes Edition handwriting recognition software, whereby conversion of the notes in computer writing is impossible. To convert the notes in computer writing, uploading must be carried out via MyScript InkRetriever.
The Note Manager transfers the notes on your receiver automatically onto the Mac computer and deletes the memory of the receiver. It is therefore essential that automatic deleting of the receiver memory is deactivated under Note Taker preferences.
