About SMART Product Drivers and SMART Ink
SMART Ink is digital inking software designed to be used with SMART’s interactive products alongside SMART Product Drivers. In order to get the most out of a SMART interactive product, both SMART Ink and Drivers need to be installed on the computer connected to the interactive product.
You can use SMART Ink to write and draw in digital ink over most open applications, files, folders, websites, and any other open window on your computer. When you move, resize or minimize a window, the ink stays with the window.
The following are some examples of when you can use SMART Ink:
To write over each tab in Internet Explorer and Chrome Internet browsers
To annotate PDFs
To draw over a video without pausing it or interfering with the video’s interactivity
To highlight content on the screen and move, copy and paste and erase digital ink notes or convert them to text
SMART Ink also comes with additional features such as screen capturing and presentation tools, see Other SMART Ink features.
