Once a custom notebook is created, you can add pages from other notebooks in any order you wish. If you wish to view your notes in an order other than that in which you took them, you can create a custom notebook by selecting the appropriate option from the left-hand menu in Livescribe Desktop. This is a good way to save space on your pen without also deleting your uploaded notes from the Livescribe software. Archiving your notebooks ensures this will not happen.Īdditionally, archiving a notebook erases it from your Smartpen internal memory. If, for example, you were to use up Notebook 1, then print out another copy of Notebook 1 and proceed to use that without having archived the first copy, both Notebook 1s would overlap with each other when you tried to next upload the notes. It is the only way to permanently store your notebooks on Livescribe Desktop. It is essential to archive a notebook when you have finished using all the pages. In addition to seeing your notes as you take them, you also have the options to Archive Notebooks and Create Custom Notebooks. If you are having trouble with this transfer process, see our troubleshooting section.
