Handwriting personalization / Supported characters for English (US) language

Hi Jacob,

Since the Handwriting Personalization feature has worked properly before, there's a possibility that recent changes or updates performed on your computer may have triggered this problem or it could be that there is a need for you to improve the handwriting
recognition on your Surface Pro by providing more samples of your handwriting. Follow these steps:

1. Navigate to Control Panel > Clock, Language, and Region > Language > Language options.
2. Under Handwriting, click Personalize handwriting recognition.
3. Select Teach the recognizer your handwriting style.
4. Several options will be provided to you on what samples do you want to input.
5. Once done, click Update and exit.
6. Click Close.

In case you're still getting the same error when trying to have a word or letter recognized, then you may have to reset the handwriting recognizer and start from scratch. Here's how:

1. Navigate to Language options > Handwriting.
2. Under Personalize handwriting recognition > Related Tasks, click
   Delete handwriting samples that you provided for the current language.
3. Confirm that you want to delete it by clicking Yes, delete my handwriting samples and reset the handwriting recognizer.
4. Once done, then try to re-establish your handwriting feature again.

Let me know the result so I can assist you further.

Regards.

 

Surface Pro 3: Handwriting | There are not handwriting options for this language.

Hi all,

I have a Surface Pro 3, and just started working with it. Now I try to install the handwriting packs, but I am not able to. I got 3 language packs: English (UK), English (USA) and Dutch (NL).

My region is set to United States

My language is set English (US)

My speech language is set to English US

However when i click on region & language and look in the English (US) language it says: There are not handwriting options for this language.

This is the same for the other 2 languages.

In the optional feautures list I do see the handwriting packs for all 3 languages.

Can someone explain me how I get this to work, or how to install the handwriting packs?

Thanks in advange,

Hein

Hi Hein,

Thank you for being part of Microsoft Community.

To recognize your handwriting in a specific language, your Tablet PC must have the
handwriting recognizer for that language installed.

Where available, the handwriting recognizers are included in the corresponding language pack. To turn on handwriting recognition for a language, you need to do two things: get the language pack, and then add the input language that you want
to use.

I would request you to download the Windows updates and check if it helps.

Do get back to us for any issues pertaining in the future. We will be happy to help.
