Masquerade trial for handwriting analysis

Overall experience is positive. Although some things are not intuitive, they start to be helpful when you got used to them.

PROS

The tool allows evaluation of handwriting variables including particular letter elements and strokes. Good visualization. Effective and suitable segmentation mode. Good playback function, which simulates the writing process.

CONS

The measurements sometimes are not correctly interpreted by the tool. Often there is a problem with letter zones, for instance middle zone fragments are presented as two-zone (the middle and upper ones). No zoom function which does not allow a good overview of the scans with high resolutions. Generated reports in different tools (Word, pdf, and Excel) differ from each other - the content is different. No built-in help.

Capire la Calligrafia

Ho riscontrato nell'utilizzo del software, la sua semplicità nell'istallazione ed anche nella sua preparazione per poter comprendere e la calligrafia quando viene segmentata dal prodotto. Poichè sono un autodidatta della lettura della calligrafia, mi è stato molto utili anche a capire con chi ho a che fare.

PROS

Il software è ottimo. Lo gestisci ho sul PC oppure con la USB.

CONS

Ad oggi non ho riscontrato alcun problema
