It says you need an Ink thing..but I cant find it >.< can someone please post a link? :$


RE: Installing the Handwriting Plugin? by _Humphreys on 01-12-2005 at 07:13 PM

It is Ink Redistributables from Microsoft. I think you would be able to get it from www.microsoft.com.


RE: Installing the Handwriting Plugin? by Sunshine on 01-12-2005 at 07:13 PM

You can install:

Ink redist

or

Windows Journal Viewer

Edit: yw :D

The Windows Journal Viewer has serious security issues (this could allow an attacker to compromise a computer running Windows Journal Viewer 1.5 and gain complete control over it)!!

Therefore, you MUST install the additional fix for this.


PS: Iether install both (journal viewer and fix) OR just stick with the Ink Redistributables...

REALLY?!
I downloaded that patch, and When I install it, it seems like it does nothing. There is a file in C:\WINDOWS|Prefetch...

Most security patches will appear to do nothing but will infact be securing your computer.

You need to install the ink redistributables with the option "FOR ALL USERS" not with "for the current user only".
RE: Installing the Handwriting Plugin? by zach on 01-14-2005 at 11:58 AM

I want to use the ink thing instead of Windows Journal Viewer, but I can't. When I click on the link, it doesn't work.


RE: Installing the Handwriting Plugin? by Sunshine on 01-14-2005 at 02:32 PM

The link i gave will lead you to a page, on that page you see Ink redistributables after where it says "download:". Click that and save the file (inkredist.zip) to your computer. Go to the folder you saved it to, extract the file and run setup.exe.


RE: Installing the Handwriting Plugin? by zach on 01-14-2005 at 11:42 PM

I got it from here.

If the user has MSN Messenger 7, then he/she only needs the ink redists, not the plugin.

RE: Installing the Handwriting Plugin? by zach on 01-15-2005 at 09:51 PM

Isn't this one of the problem's that will be fixed through the BETA testing of v7.0?

RE: Installing the Handwriting Plugin? by andrey on 01-19-2005 at 12:35 AM

No, sorry there is no way to run Handwriting on Windows 98 (SE).
It works on newer OS' (Windows XP / 2000 etc) but is NOT compatible with Windows 98.


RE: Installing the Handwriting Plugin? by on_da_pull on 01-19-2005 at 12:43 AM

Oo okay thanx man :)
