Annotation
Many different types of software can benefit from the unique advantages of
pen-based annotation. A user annotates by writing with a pen on top of an existing document, as
though on an overlaying transparent sheet. This allows adding to the document
free-form writing such as notes, diagrams, review comments, questions, and so
forth.
Unless evident by the context, an application should prompt the user to
identify a position in the document to attach the annotation. This prevents the
annotation from drifting from its intended location if the underlying document is
changed.
Often, annotated text remains unrecognized, captured as ink data. Reduce such
text to display resolution to minimize the file space it occupies. For more
information on how to achieve maximum compression of handwritten text, see
"Converting Data to Display Resolution" in Chapter 4.
