HINTS & TIPS
The pens have settings for both
right-handed and left-handed
users. In left handed mode, the
pen will scan in either direction
To get a good result hold the
pen at a 70-to-90-degree angle
(much like you would a normal
pen or highlighter).
Start scanning a little before the
first word and lift the pen just
after your last scanned word.
You don’t have to scan slowly.
You can also get an accurate
result if you scan quickly.
