Points on writing handwritten characters
Paying attention to the following points will ensure that handwritten characters are
easily recognized.
• Write each individual stroke clearly. Ensure that characters have the correct
number of strokes.
• Write clearly and do not use short or conventional forms. Avoid writing
sloping characters.
• On the single-frame or dual-frame pad, write lower case characters smaller
to distinguish between identical-looking upper and lower case characters
such as upper case "C" and lower case "c". Small characters such as the
small "
"should also be written smaller.
• Write English letters in block form and do not attach ornamentation to the
ends of strokes.
• When using frameless entry, write English characters separately, one at
a time. You cannot write in cursive style or return to previously formed
characters to add dots or crosses.
• When using frameless entry, write words on a single line. You cannot write
on two lines.
• When writing letters, do not press hard; always write lightly.
