About This Guide
As you read this guide, you’ll learn that you can do a lot more than just control your computer via
the interactive whiteboard’s touch-sensitive surface and write over top of projected applications in
electronic ink.
SMART Board software is packed with features that’ll make your next presentation truly powerful.
You can:
• create and edit a wide variety of annotation objects with the pen tray styluses, the
Floating Tools or Notebook
software
• capture an image of what you’ve written on the interactive whiteboard into Notebook
software
• save or print a complete copy of everything written, drawn or typed into SMART
Notebook software
• use an on-screen keyboard to enter text right at the interactive whiteboard surface
without using a conventional, physical keyboard
• import information from almost any source into Notebook software
While the SMART interactive products are easy and natural tools to use and they require no special
expertise, this guide covers the complete range of SMART Board software functionality so you can
take full advantage of every feature.
The pages that follow are organized around the typical tasks performed before, during and after an
interactive whiteboard presentation. For example, you’ll learn how to create Notebook files (and
annotation objects within those files), import information from other sources, and then sort and edit
the file contents.
You’ll also learn how to print and send Notebook files, and the most effective ways of using your
interactive screen during a presentation.
