Abstract
Preserving ink effects in ink-to-text are described. A method of preserving styles and ink effects in ink-to-text can include receiving ink strokes and displaying the ink strokes on a canvas interface, each ink stroke comprising ink parameters such as pressure, ink color, and ink effect. In response to receiving a command to convert one or more ink strokes to text, the method can further include identifying text comprising characters and words from the one or more ink strokes; generating an appropriate coloring or style for each character or word based on the ink parameters associated with corresponding ink strokes, the appropriate coloring or style being generated based on a mapping between ink parameters and text parameters; applying the appropriate coloring or style to the text; and displaying the text on the canvas interface.
