time, a new folder named ‘My Notes’, is created in your ‘My Documents’
directory. All your notes will be saved into this directory.

. In the event that no ‘My Documents’ directory is found, the installation
process will create a new ‘My Documents’ folder on your C: hard drive.

the note files will remain in this directory, and will not be overwritten.

Final Mode d'emploi YWS08NetBEng9 9 05/05/2010 14:24:28

when your Mobile Note Taker base unit is connected. The following can
be selected in the ‘Configuration >> Preferences’ menu within the Easy

. Yes – Your notes will be automatically uploaded each time you connect
the device to your PC.
. No – Your notes will not be
uploaded automatically. You will
need to manually perform upload
by selecting ‘File >> Upload’
menu within the Easy Note Taker

When you use your Digital Pen to write text, everything you write is saved
as a series of TIFF (Tagged Image File Format) images in the Mobile Note
Taker memory. Before you can work with your text on your Mac, you first
need to transfer the TIFF images from the Mobile Note Taker to your
Mac’s hard drive.
Before you can start transferring your text from the Mobile Note Taker,
you first need to set preferences on your Mac. By setting preferences,
you decide:
. Where on your Mac’s hard drive you want to save the TIFF images;
. Whether you want to erase the TIFF images from the Mobile Note Taker
after you have imported them to your Mac.
You set these preferences using the Easy Note Taker Preference Tool.

rences dialog opens:

where TIFF images from the Mobile Note Taker will be saved.
. Clear Device Memory checkbox – if this checkbox is checked, the
Mobile Note Taker’s memory will be cleared (erased) after you upload
TIFF images to your Mac. If the checkbox is unchecked, the TIFF images
will remain saved on the Mobile Note Taker after you have uploaded them
to your Mac.
2. The first preference you need to set is the location on your Mac where
TIFF images will be saved when you transfer them from the Mobile Note
Taker. The Target Path displays the default location to which the TIFF
images will be saved. To choose a different path, click the ellipsis
button (‘…’) to open the Finder window:
Easy Note Taker Preferences Tool
page 12
Final Mode d'emploi YWS08NetBEng14 14 05/05/2010 14:24:29

3. Choose where on your Mac you want to save TIFF images by clicking
on the relevant location in the left hand column, and then click ‘Open’.
The Finder window closes and the new target path is displayed in the
Easy Note Taker Preferences dialog.
4. If you want to clear the Easy Note Taker’s memory each time you
upload TIFF images from it, check the Clear Device Memory checkbox.
To leave the TIFF images on the Mobile NoteTaker after they are uploa-
ded, leave the checkbox unchecked.
5. To save your preferences and close the Easy Note Taker Preferences
dialog, click ‘Save’. When you next connect the Mobile Note Taker to your
Mac, your images will be uploaded according to the preferences you
have set.
6. To close the Easy Note Taker Preferences dialog without saving any
