What does PenData Solutions do?
PenData Solutions enables businesses to more efficiently and reliably manage handwritten information.
The PenData TransScribe™ software uses digital pen and paper to securely record, input, and process
handwritten text into digital images and text. We move data from the pen to the computer.
What is the value of the TransScribe™ software?
PenData Solutions delivers immediate value to our customers by significantly reducing the manual labor
involved with entering and managing handwritten data into computer systems. This reduction in labor is
reflected in increased time to do more productive work and decreased operational costs.
What comprises the TransScribe™ solution?
The PenData TransScribe solution is comprised of a server-based software application, browser-based thin
client software, a digital pen, and digital paper.
Do I need to change how I take notes when I use TransScribe?
No. You don’t need to change how you take notes. You still use a ballpoint pen and paper laid out the same
way that you are familiar with to write things down. You just use a different pen and paper with a lightly shaded background.
What is different about the paper?
The same, ordinary paper that you use today is slightly modified with Anoto® digital paper technology. To make
the paper digitally legible, a very fine dot pattern is added as a faint background shading.
What is Anoto technology?
Anoto developed a technology using a nearly invisible pattern of dots that covers the page. The pattern is made
of a series of tiny dots, arranged in a unique pattern. This pattern is read by the digital pen as the pen writes
in ink on the page. The dots indicate the exact location of the pen on the paper, much like a GPS.
