Graffiti Reference Card  (250-3116)  Character Sets    Faxback Doc. # 14968

This explains how to create characters that are not commonly used in
writing.  Because these characters are used infrequently, you don't have to
learn them to use Graffiti effectively.  Instead, simply refer to this
document or the Graffiti Reference Card to learn any specific characters
that you need.

Additional Graffiti Punctuation Marks

The punctuation marks and symbols are created the same way as the basic
Graffiti punctuation marks.

Tap once in the Writing Area of the Graffiti Window to activate the
Punctuation Shift, and the next stroke that you make will create the
punctuation mark or symbol.

Writing Extended Characters

All Extended Characters begin with the Extended Shift stroke in the Writing
area of the Graffiti Window.

When you draw the Extended Shift stroke in the Writing Area, a diagonal
line will appear in the upper-left corner to show that you have activated
Extended Shift.

When Extended Shift is activated, the next stroke that you make will be
recognized as an extended character.

Writing International Characters

To create accented characters, draw the stroke normally used to create the
letter, followed by an accent stroke.  The accent will be applied to the
letter.

Using these accent strokes, you can write many accented letters with
Graffiti.

Additional International Characters

In addition, accented characters can be drawn in the normal lower case
alphabet mode, without any special shifting or other characters.
