Livescribe VERSION 1.2 Recording Equipment User Manual


 
Paper Replay in Livescribe Desktop
Paper Replay is a Pulse smartpen application that allows you to write notes in
your notebook and record audio at the same time. As you write, your Pulse
smartpen indexes (or links) your notes to the recorded audio. The information
you capture during Paper Replay is called a session.
Typically, a session consists of the recorded audio and associated notes.
However, you can also create paperless sessions, which consist of the recorded
audio only. You can also play back a session on your Pulse smartpen and write
additional notes in your notebook. Paper Replay associates these additional notes
with the session’s original audio. See the Pulse Smartpen User Manual for more
information about using Paper Replay.
You can view and play back Paper Replay sessions in Livescribe Desktop. When
you view a Paper Replay session, you can click your notes to begin playback of
the audio recorded as you wrote the notes. This is similar to the way you can tap
your actual notes in your notebook to begin audio playback.
About Active Ink
When you write with your Pulse smartpen, it captures your writing digitally and
stores it in a digital form called ink. When you record audio as you write using
Paper Replay, your Pulse smartpen links the audio to the ink you write.
Ink with linked audio is active ink. In Livescribe Desktop, active ink appears
green. When viewing a Paper Replay session in Page Viewer, you can click on
active ink to start audio playback. Livescribe Desktop will also trace the session's
notes in darker green ink as the audio plays.
When you mouse over ink that is active, the mouse cursor will change to a
pointing hand cursor
to help you identify where you can click to begin audio
playback. See Playing Audio and Viewing Pages
for more information.
