How Xpaper works
If you know how to print a document and write with a pen, you already know how to use Xpaper.
 |
Print
You simply print from any application using the Xpaper printer driver. A unique pattern of Anoto microdots is added to the document as it is printed, and an image of the document is automatically stored on your computer for later reference.

Write
Next, you write with a digital pen as you normally would. The special pattern of Anoto dots printed by the Xpaper printer driver enables the digital pen to automatically sense its location and record your handwriting in its memory.

PDF
When the pen is docked in its cradle, the recorded ink is downloaded and matched with the image of the original document – instantly creating an exact copy of the handwritten document in PDF format, just as if you had scanned or photocopied it!
|
Automatic Action
Once ink is applied, the resulting PDF is automatically sent, stored, managed, or used by any software application - based on custom actions that are designated at print time - including assisted data entry with PaperView, or further handwriting processing using partner software.
Compatibility
The system works with documents printed from any Windows application. This includes desktop PC applications as well as Internet-enabled applications that run in browsers.
Digital copies are created in the common PDF format, so they are easily used with almost any information system.
Multiuser environments
Xpaper is easily configured for networked environments. Documents can be printed with one computer, and then written upon with multiple pens which are docked at other computers. Handwriting will be automatically updated on the digital copies so they always match the physical paper.
You can even write on documents months after they were originally used. The new ink will be automatically added to the digital copies.
Pre-printed forms
Do you use a high volume of forms?
There's no need to print them all on your own printer. Just send the layout and we will print them for you. All you then need to do is distribute them for use.

Or to automatically export Xpaper documents into another software application or information system?
