Ink annotations pass through in terminal server session? cgijag 11/24/2008 7:58:02 PM Good day everyone. I've tried searching the net for an answer but haven't found a solution. I have XP Tablet PC's in the field which connect to our metaframe session and get a windows desktop. They are able to open a word/excel document, bring up the text input panel and use that for handwriting to text conversion. What I'd like to to is use the Ink annotation feature in word to write a signiture onto a document. If i use Office on the tablet pc it works fine but I'd like to enable that feature somehow on office 2003 on our metaframe server. anyone ever try this? I believe i'd need to install the Microsoft Handwriting Component from the Office install to get the ink toolbars...any thoughts. Thank you.

A simpler solution is to create the signature locally on the Tablet, save as format of your choice, and then paste it into the document on the Terminal Server. -- Charlie. http://msmvps.com/blogs/xperts64 http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/profile/charlie.russel "cgijag" <cgijag[ at ]discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:6B4ED0B7-747C-4FEF-A51F-96A65A7FE6DE[ at ]microsoft.com...

Re: Ink annotations pass through in terminal server session? cgijag 12/2/2008 4:01:04 PM Thank you Beverly and Charlie. I will repost on the suggested forum. I'll also investigate creating the sig locally as an image.
