IBM Simon User Manual

the direction
you
want to
drag the fax.
After
you
lift
your
stylus from
the
screen, the fax
will move the
same distance
that
you
slid
your
stylus,
and
in the
same direction.
lf
you
want
to save
your
work with
the fax, touch the
Save button.
Otherwise, touch
the Menu
button.
The
choices
you
have from
the menu
are
(1)
Erase
the fax,
(2)
Quit
without
saving
any changes
or
annotations,
(3)
Save the fax
as is, with
changes
and annotations,
or
(4)
Rename
the fax.
(When
you
Rename
a
fax,
you
also
save
it
as is.) When
you
receive a
fax,
it
automatically
receives
a name
based on how
many
other faxes
are stored on
Simon.
If
you
plan
to keep
a
fax
for
a
while, it
may
be
handy
to rename
it.
Creating a New
Fax
To create a fax,
touch
the
Create New Fax
button.
A
pop-up
will
appear
that
offers
you
three
choices.
To
start
the
Sketch Pad, touch
the ln
Sketch Pad
button. To
start the Note
Pad touch
the ln Note
Pad button.
(You
can easily
fax any
sketches or
notes that
you
create.)
To
create
a
full-page
fax,
touch its
button.
Creating a full-page
fax
is very
similar to working
with an existing
fax,
except
you
start with a blank
screen.
The
tools
and
buttons
are the same,
but
the zoom
level
stafts
at Most Detailed
to make
it
easier to draw
details
and to
provide
the best
system
performance.
You
can
change the zoom
level,
but
it
will
take longer
to
pan
across the
page
as
you
create the
fax.
Because
you
are working
on
a full-size
page
with
a
small display
(with
landscape
orientation), it
can be
tricky to create
a new full-page
fax. lf
you
do not
need a full-size
page,
keep in
mind that
it is easier
to
fax
sketches
using
the
Sketch Pad feature
or to
fax typed notes
using the
Note Pad feature.
Sending Faxes
To send a fax,
touch
the
Send Fax
button on the
main Fax
screen.
The list
of faxes
available to
send
will
appear. Touch
the
one
you
want to
send. lf the
fax
has more
than
one
page,
you
have
the option to
send all
pages
or
selected
pages.
lf
you
choose to
send selected
pages,
then
a list of
buttons will
46 User's Guide
appear,
one for
each
page
of the
selected fax.
Touch
the
pages
that
you
want
to
send, and
they
will
be highlighted.
lf
you
change
your
mind
about
a
page,
just
touch
it again.
After
you've
selected
the
pages
you
want
to
send, touch
the
OK
key.
The
screen
will
change
to an
on-screen
keyboard
and
a
form
with
two fields.
For
"To:,"
type
the name
of
the
person
that
you're
sending
the
fax
to. For
"Fax
#:,',
type
the
phone
number
of the recipient's
fax
machine.
Then touch
the
Done
key
at the
bottom
of
the
screen. A
Sending Fax
status
window
will
appear.
You
can keep
track
of
your
fax's
progress
by watching
the messages
in the
status
window.
