Abstract: A pen-enabled computing arrangement includes a handwriting capture interface and at least one processing element, such as in the form of a computing system and a digital pen that embodies a writing stylus. The handwriting capture interface can capture an electronic handwriting input. The processing element can sense an identifier associated with an object, and associate electronic handwriting input with the object. The processing element can then process the electronic handwriting input based upon the associated object. Printed paper with which the arrangement can operate to effectuate capturing and processing data may also be provided. Further, triggered verification of the sensed identifier may be provided when the identifier is sensed based upon initial electronic handwriting input corresponding to the identifier and the sensed identifier is unknown and/or improper.
