The external monitor port uses a significant amount of power and can quickly drain your
batteries. Connect to AC power when using the external monitor port, or double-click the

Using Microsoft InkWriter
Microsoft InkWriter®, a text, graphics, and ink processor
with Rich Ink technology, makes it easy for you to write and
draw the way you do on paper, but with the benefit of being
able to edit and format your writings and drawings. With
InkWriter, you can enter information in the way that is
easiest for you. You can type using the keyboard, or you can
draw using the HP Jornada touch pad.
To create an InkWriter document
1. On the Start menu, point to Programs, point to
Accessories, and then click InkWriter.
2. Create your document:
• To type, click Writing on the View menu,
and then use the keyboard.
• To draw, click Drawing on the View menu, and
then click and drag on the HP Jornada touch
pad to draw on the screen. You can also create a
drawing in Writing view by crossing three of the
ruled lines on the first stroke of
the drawing.
3. When you are finished, on the File menu,
click Save.
InkWriter can help you draw perfect circles, rectangles, triangles, and lines. To do this, in
Drawing view, select a shape you have drawn, and then on the File menu, click
Shapes and choose a shape from the list.
