ABSTRACT:
A method is provided for converting displayed text from one format to another. Text is input as handwriting in a pen-based computer and then automatically converted to a typeface text of a first text domain. Upon receipt of a conversion gesture that is recognized by the system as such, the system automatically converts the displayed text from the first text domain to a second character. The displayed text may be initially written as Hiragana and/or Katakana characters. Upon receipt of a conversion gesture, the system automatically converts the Hiragana and Katakana characters to appropriate Kanji characters.
