Graphic tablets are now quite inexpensive and can help allot with the work of
image manipulation. In addition to that what a mouse can do for you they have
the following features:
- pressure and tilt sensitivity
- high resolution motion control
- sub-pixel positioning
- an input device that looks like and is handled like a normal Pen.
This document addresses mainly the products from Wacom, because I own 3
different products of them and because their products are highly available in
the region of Europe.
Nevertheless I think it should be easy to adapt the shown concepts to other
products.
I have written this document because I have not found a document about this
subject which contained completely what I wanted to know.
So I got small parts of information from various people in the
net and assembled them to this HOWTO. Regarding the questions of
my readers, I must realize that this document also is not complete and never
will be. But from the same questions I can tell that it helped many people on
the way, and each new question lets this HOWTO grow.
The latest version of this document will be available at
http://www.runkel-it.de/linux.htm.
Comments, corrections, and additions are greatly be appreciated. I can be
contacted at:
Runkel@runkel-it.de
or at

I would like to thank all authors listed in the
Further Information / used documents
Section as well as everyone who answered my questions by email.
This HOWTO reflects much of their work.
