7.8 Notes
Notes help you to quickly capture thoughts, questions, reminders,
to-do lists, and meeting notes. You can create handwritten and typed
notes, record voice notes, convert handwritten notes to text for easy
reading, and send notes to others.
Enter information in Notes
There are several ways to enter information in a note. You can enter
typed text by using the on-screen keyboard or handwriting recognition
software. You can use the stylus to write or draw directly on the screen.
