Abstract
In the data input apparatus, a pressure-sensitive tablet, a character recognition section for recognizing handwritten character data input through the tablet, a document memory for sequentially storing a recognition result of the character data, and a power supply for driving the tablet, the recognition control section, and the document memory, are integrally incorporated in a handheld casing. The data input apparatus can be detachabably connected to a document processing apparatus main body via a cable. During an input operation, the data input apparatus is disconnected from the data processing apparatus main body, and performs the input operation independently of the main body, to store the input document data in the document memory. The data input apparatus is connected to the document data processing apparatus, and the document data stored in the document memory is sent to the main body to be processed.
