6 1.5 Handwriting conversion We are proud and excited to announce that conversion of handwriting to typed text is now available on your remarkable paper tablet. This is our first step into this magic functionality, one that we will continue to improve in the coming releases. There are three important things you need to know: 1. We only convert handwritten notes in Notebooks at the moment, not in PDFs or Ebooks. 2. You need to be connected to a WiFi network and logged in to a remarkable account. The conversion takes place in the cloud (only takes a few seconds) so you need to be connected to do so. If you don t already have one, you can create a remarkable account here: my.remarkable.com. 3. In this first version you can edit and share your converted notes via (see below) but they will not be stored on the device. More functionality will be coming in the future so you can do more with your typed notes. How to convert your notes to typed text: When you tap the Convert to text button your handwritten notes are sent to the cloud, where a well trained AI interprets and converts each letter, word and sentence into standardised typed text. You will then be shown the converted notes so you can edit and share them via . It s also worth noting that writing at an angle or non-horizontally won t work, nor do symbols (such as mathematical symbols and diagrams) but several forms of bullet points are recognised and some smiley faces too.

7 Convert in your language For the best results you can specify which language your notes are written in through the Settings page. We currently support 33 languages. To specify your language, go to the Settings page where you will find the language selection option in the Handwriting Conversion Settings page. Convert multiple pages at once If you you want to convert more than one page at a time, you can do this by tapping the Select pages button on the top right corner of the Action bar when your first page of conversion is done. You can also select multiple pages in the Page overview and tap the Convert to text button to make a conversion.

8 How to Edit your notes before sharing them: Once your handwritten notes are converted to typed text they are now in a form where you can easily edit and share them with others. If you edit this text, your handwritten notes are not affected. To edit the text - simply tap the word or letter you want to edit and then use the keyboard to make the changes you want before sharing. How to share your converted notes: Once you re satisfied with your newly converted notes you can share them by to others or just to yourself! In the top menu bar, you will see the Share button which you may have used previously in your remarkable. This will take you to the sharing feature where you can input the recipient. At this time the converted text document will be sent as the body text in the itself (rather than as an attachment) so it s easy to take the text from the and paste it if needed elsewhere. We will look at expanding the capabilities in the future.
