FreeStyle 1.0 Demo(c) ParaGraph International, All Rights ReservedWelcome to the FreeStyle "Test Drive" kit.You should have received: o This ReadMe file o FreeStyle Demo ("FreeStyle.pkg") o FreeStyle Trainer ("Trainer.pkg") o FreeStyle on-line help package ("UserGuide.pkg") o FreeStyle Macros package ("Macros.pkg") o Order Form with contact information ("Ordering")First of all we want to thank you for trying out FreeStyle(tm) a personalrecognition engine based on the revolutionary OrthoGraph(tm) recognitiontechnology. We at ParaGraph have been supporting the Newton platformsince day one (our CalliGrapher (tm) recognition technology andHodoGraph (tm) ink compression technology is in the Newton OS) andhope FreeStyle will add to the functionality of your Newton. We believe ita perfect complementary recognizer to the OS recognition for bothNewton 1.X and 2.0. It will allow you to have a personal recognizer thatdoesnÉt require memorization of esoteric symbols. You will be ableto take notes without looking at the screen using your naturalletter shapes.FreeStyle works in the Newton 1.x or 2.0 Operating Systems. Afterinstalling FreeStyle's packages tap on the Trainer icon in the ExtrasDrawer to start the training process. Please refer to the on-line help ifyou have any questions.DISABLED FEATURES-----------------We would like you to be able to use this demo to *fully* evaluateFreeStyle. Therefore this version is equal to the full version in everyway except:1. You will only be able to use the recognition engine in itsown demo application. In the real version you will be able to use theWriting Window with all Newton programs.We are confident that enough functionality has been maintained to enableyou to fully evaluate FreeStyle. Also when you do decide to purchase thefull version, you WILL NOT have to retrain your letters.HOW IS FREESTYLE DIFFERENT?--------------------------Electronic ink and handwriting recognition have given rise to a new wayof writing. Letters can now be written in the same place, one upon theother, without hand movement. No concern about relative location isnecessary. It is a location independent recognizer if it converts suchwriting into normal printed text.FreeStyle is first to do location-independent recognition withoutcompromise.No time-out restrictions. Time out before each character was avery annoying limitation since it could drastically reduce textentry and forced a break in your natural writing rhythm.With FreeStyle there is no need to pause between characters.No pre-defined shapes. A set of prescribed single-stroke shapesinstead of usual handwriting characters was a step thatpopularized a new way of writing. But users wereforced to convert from their natural style-- not always an easy task.With FreeStyle there is no need to memorize strange pre-designedsymbols.COPYRIGHT AND DISTRIBUTION--------------------------FreeStyle and OrthoGraph are registered trademarks of ParaGraphInternational.
