Last month CalliGrapher was named the best handwriting recognition software for Microsoft Windows Mobile based Pocket PCs by industry experts for the fifth consecutive year. CalliGrapher analyzes pen strokes written in any application window or in the designated Write Pad area, then converts those pen strokes into text and sends the recognized text to the target application.

PhatWare has released CalliGrapher 8.4 – which includes a new English handwriting recognition engine with improved word segmentation algorithm and new digital ink filter. It also addresses a few compatibility issues found since the previous version.

CalliGrapher 8.4 is a free upgrade for all registered users of CalliGrapher 8.x. Registered users of any older version of CalliGrapher can purchase the upgrade at a reduced price.
