This of course works best with either a stylus on a touchscreen or thepens on a smart board, but just to show it can be done, I’m using my mouse on adesktop in the videos in this post. Speeded up, of course.

Welcome to Day 10 of 365 Ideas for Office 365. this week we’ve been looking at OneNote, specifically the amazing things you can do with tools under the Draw tab, like Ink to Shape and Ink to Math. Today Ink to Text gets it’s turn in the spotlight.

Right now, OneNote Online does not have Ink to Text.
