3Use the tables on the previous pages to find the 
stroke shape for the letter you want to create.
There are several different stroke shapes available for some 
letters. For those letters, choose the one that is easier for you.
Use the same shape to create both the upper case and lower 
case version of a letter.
4Position the stylus on the Lower case letter area 
of the Graffiti
® 2 writing area. Start your stroke 
at the dot and draw the stroke shape as it is 
displayed in the tables.
Note
You must begin the character  strokes in the Graffiti® 2 writing 
area. If you do not make Graffiti® 2 strokes in the Graffiti® 2 
writing area, your CLIÉ handheld does not recognize them as text 
characters.
Notes on writing Graffiti® 2 characters
 Recognition accuracy improves when you write large strokes.  You should draw strokes that nearly fill the Graffiti® 2 writing 
area.
 Write at natural speed. Writing too slowly can generate  recognition errors.
 Do not write on a slant. Vertical strokes should be parallel to  the sides of the Graffiti
® 2 writing area.

Using navigation strokes and shortcuts
Using navigation strokes
When you are entering text or operating an application, you can 
use navigation strokes within the field of the application. For 
details, refer to the following and Graffiti 2 Help on your CLIÉ 
handheld.
*Certain function icons, such as Copy and Delete, will display only when that function is available.
Note
If the letter “L” is registered as a menu command for an application, the 
letters “K”, “T”, “I”, and “X” will not work as menu commands. This 
is because the first stroke of these two-stroke letters will be mistakenly 
recognized as the command “L”. If there is no command “L,” any or all 
of the four letters can be registered as menu commands.

a shortcut, write the shortcut stroke   followed by the shortcut 
characters. When you write the shortcut stroke, the Short Cut

are in Shortcut mode. For example, if you write the Graffiti
® 2 
writer shortcut “ds” ( ,  , and  ) in the Graffiti® 2 writing 
area, this enters the current date and time. For details, refer to the 
following.
