Spokane, Washington – PhatWare Corporation, a leading professional software and application developer, announces today the immediate availability of WritePad handwriting recognition Software Development Kit (SDK) version 5.1 for Apple iOS featuring new sample code in Swift language.

WritePad SDK Features:
* Recognizes natural handwritten text in a variety of handwriting styles: cursive (script), PRINT and MIXed.
* Recognizes dictionary words from its main or user-defined dictionary, as well as non-dictionary words, such as names, numbers and mixed alphanumeric combinations.
* Supports 12 languages, including English (US, UK), Danish, Dutch, Finnish, French, German, Indonesian, Italian, Norwegian, Portuguese (Brazil, Portugal), Spanish, and Swedish.
* Provides automatic segmentation of handwritten text into words and automatically differentiates between vocabulary and non-vocabulary words, and between words and arbitrary alphanumeric strings.
* Does not require a user to train the software and allows for most users to achieve high accuracy right “out of the box”.
* Reliably recognizes handwriting and provides spell checking and word completion features.

WritePad SDK includes handwriting recognition library for all supported CPUs, dictionaries for all supported languages, API header files, documentation, and sample code in Objective-C and Swift allowing easy integration with new or existing iOS applications or devices.
