is office 2007 ink enabled?

[Patrick Schmid [MVP]]

You were asking about Office 2007. Office 2007 *requires* ink support in
the operating system. Office 2007 has inking features, but they won't be
available unless your OS provides ink support (I see it on my tablet
e.g., but not on my desktop). For Windows XP that is only the TabletPC
Edition. A lot of the Vista editions have ink support though.
Speech was removed from Office 2007 and given completely to Windows.
There is nothing left in Office 2007 for it and if you want to use
speech with Office 2007, you either need Vista or try your luck with the
XP Speech Recognition SDK (as I have heard, you won't get the same kind
of speech support under XP with that as you get with Office 2003).

what are you talking about.. I have handwriting now on XPSP2 with
some parts of office 2003 that I did not install before...

and I wrote freehand on my desktop with a tablet pen.
it took my bad handwriting and translated it into text.

This is a part of office 2003 that is called handwritting and it has speech
too...

But as I said office2007 probably lacks these abilities

That's not possible. You need ink support in the operating system for this
to work, and XP Pro doesn't have that.

It's amazing how MS doesn't support transfer of ink from its Pocket
PC's to the desktop counterpart in the newest ActiveSync.
