进入大学之后，特别是在我们学校，许多同学可能面临的问题就是笔记本的问题。是直接将笔记记在各种各样的课件打印版上？还是将笔记记在电脑上？然而，直接记在纸上，或许日后如何存放与处理是一大问题；而记在电脑上，有时候有会缺少灵活性，诸如众多经济金融数学的符号在电脑上都是难以记录的，虽然有LaTeX语言，但是对于日常笔记使用来说上手困难，而且无论再熟练的LaTeX使用者也比不上一个实体纸上写出符号的速度。而现在，这款产品-Wacom Bamboo Spark也许以一种特殊的方式在纸质版与电子版之间找到了平衡点。

Many of us may face the problem of notebooks. Take notes directly on the notebooks? Take notes on the computers? However, it is really troublesome to deal with real notebooks because of the problem of storage and heavy weight (if there are too many notebooks). As for the computer note-taking, it is hard to write down all those economic/financal/mathematical symbols and terms. Though there is LaTeX which allows us to type special symbols, ordinary students may have trouble learning it, and even the most skilled LaTeX may not be faster than a notebook user.

Now, Wacom Bamboo Spark connects real papers and electronic medium.

使用流程：

Procedure:

1.准备工作：将Bamboo Spark与安装有Bamboo Spark的iOS系统设备或者Android系统设备通过蓝牙(Bluetooth)匹配（但是Bamboo Spark内部也有存储100页笔记的空间）。这样便可以将笔记通过Bamboo Spark直接传送到iOS系统设备或者Android系统设备中的Bamboo Spark App。可以用Bamboo Spark App更进一步地输出电子格式的笔记,比如JPG图像格式，PDF文档格式（支持无损缩放），WILL格式(Bamboo Paper App专用，记录有笔画顺序)。

Bamboo Spark is compatible with iOS device or Android device with Bamboo Spark App through Bluetooth (Bamboo Spark itself also has internal storage to store up to 100 slides). In this way you can get notes from Bamboo Spark in the Bamboo Spark App. By using Bamboo Spark App, you are able to export your notes as JPG format, PDF format (supporting scaling without quality loss), WILL format (exclusive for Bamboo Paper App which contains the exact sequence of strokes)

2.用专用笔写，完成后按Bamboo Spark中间的按钮。这样即可保存一张笔记。虽然本文主要在说笔记，但是任何通过纸笔的事情都可以做，比如画画(Bamboo Spark专用笔支持1024级别压感)。以下为样张。显然，这两个样张不是一个人写出来的，至于比较丑的那个，当然是我写的。

Use Bamboo Spark Pen. When you finish one slide, press the button in the middle so that one slide is saved. It should be noted that while this article mainly discuesses notes, but everything that can be done through papers and pens can be done, for example, drawing(Bamboo Spark Pen supports 1024-Pressure-Sensitivity). Below are the samples. Apparently, the three samples are not done by one person, as for the ugly two samples, it is written by myself.

3.绘画功能：可以用Bamboo Spark App进行简单的划线与修改，App中只有黑色笔与橡皮可用。但在另外一个应用Bamboo Paper中有着更多丰富的选择，包括更多颜色的笔记。

Drawing: You are able to edit slides in the Bamboo Spark App, where there are only two functions – drawing balck lines and erasing. Another App – Bamboo Papaer offers a variety functions including drawing lines in other colors.

4.分割与合并功能：Bamboo Spark App中的原生笔记记录着你的笔画顺序，因此，你可以用App将一张笔记按照你自己的笔画顺序中的某一点分为前后两张，比如，如果你在笔记本上已经写了2页笔记而忘记同步，那么你的App中同步后会显示一张两页笔记重合的笔记，运用分割功能，可以将一页笔记分为两页。此外还有合并功能，可以将两页笔记合并到一页。以下为演示：我们可以轻易看到，可以将“虫”“合”合并为“蛤”，也可以将“蛤”分为“虫”“合”。

Split and Combine: The original notes in Bamboo Spark App contains the exact sequence of strokes, and therefore, you can split one slide into two slides according to a random time point in the sequence of strokes. For example, you forgot to sync and there are two slides are synced into one slide, you can split this particular one slide into two separate slides. You can also combine two slides into one slide. Here is a demonstration: it is easy for us to see that two Chinese character components “虫” and “合” are combined into one Chinese character “蛤”， and we can also do the reverse.

Potential Problems of Bamboo Spark:

1.部分过于轻的笔画可能无法记录下来，本人在使用Bamboo Spark记笔记的时候就出现了这个问题，在此之后加重书写力度。

Some strokes may not be stored because you writes too lightly, in other words, the pressure sensing is not very accurate.

2.这个专用笔，虽然笔芯很好，但是还是不是特别好写。

Bamboo Spark Pen is not very easy to use despite the good cartridges.
