I feel like I'm in too deep with digital, and like the ability to access it anywhere.
You can have both.
My wife uses a smart pen that tracks her writing in her notebooks and creates searchable PDFs.
Every couple of months she unloads it via Bluetooth into iCloud and the pages are available everywhere she is.
She recently turned off the pen's built-in OCR after she found that macOS does a much better job of automatically OCRing the pages just by dropping the PDFs into the file system.
- siquick 2y agoWhat’s the name of this pen? Sounds incredibly useful
- reaperducer 2y agoI don't know the brand. (She's traveling right now.) but I know it uses something called "N" notebooks. Checking Amazon just now shows that Moleskin has one of its own. But I don't know if that's hers.

- human_person 2y agoWill it record anything she writes with the pen? Regardless of what she is writing on? Does she need to replace the ink in the pen ever?
