General Question about One Note Handwriting Conversion...

[Nandezx]

Hi,

When i use One Note's convert handwriting to text function, it usually
outputs as a paragraph. The problem is that the paragraph is usually three or
four words to a line, and usually breaks up the sentence that i just wrote
down.

How can i make it such that any text that i convert will become a sentence
instead of a pseudo-paragraph, or more importantly, how do i edit text that
have been converted from handwriting while still in One Note? I couldn't
figure out how to do it...

Thanks in advance!

I'm not sure, other than maybe copying/pasting into another program,
fixing the extra line breaks and pasting back into OneNote.

But you may be able to avoid this problem if you can let go of the reason
why you convert in the first place. Leaving your handwriting as Ink is
not a problem; it gets converted in the background, and is completely
indexed and searchable. You don't need to convert it to text in order to
re-use it as text.
