OneNote and Pocket PC handdrawn notes

[digifork]

Hello all!

On my Pocket PC I create a new note and draw a diagram on the note. I
then sync with my PC and the note gets imported into OneNote.

The problem is, the diagram is all jumbled up. It does not look like
the note on my Pocket PC, which makes the drawing useless. Is there a
fix for this?

Im running OneNote 2003 SP1 and Pocket PC 2003.

Can you clarify "all jumbled up"? Are the resulting OneNote note
containers overlapping? Does the ink from the PPC note not look right? Is
it compressed/enlarged/stretched?

Here is an example of "all jumbled up":

Let say I have a drawing where I drew a box, then drew another box that
is below and to the right of the first box, and then drew an arrow
connecting the two boxes.

Everything on this drawing gets left aligned. I have included some
ASCII art to demostrate the before and after. You will probably have to
copy and paste it into notepad to see it clearly.

Sometimes the order of things are not predictable after transfered to
OneNote. For example, objects that may have been above another object
is now below it and sometimes (very rarely) the note is transfers with
no issues what-so-ever!
