Guides

Practical starting points and reference guides for Pen tablets, pen displays and digital-art workflows.

A beginner's starting point ↗

Confirm OS compatibility, ports and software support before buying. Align the active area with your monitor, install the official driver, configure mapping and practise short exercises with lines, curves and hatching.

A practical reference guide ↗

Evaluate screen size, resolution, surface texture, lamination, colour calibration, stand adjustability and cable requirements. For colour-critical work, look for independent measurements and a workable calibration process.
