This free powertoy should be incredibly useful for anyone who purchased a Tablet PC but then later added Microsoft’s OneNote. Windows Journal comes with every Tablet PC to give you a basic note-taking application, but it’s fairly bare-bones. You can ink and convert your writing to text with Journal, but if you really want to step it up, you’ll want to explore OneNote. Ahhh… but therein lies the problem: what can you do with all of those older notes from Windows Journal once you add OneNote to your software stable?
Up until last month, not much. Dan Escapa points out an importing tool developed by Lin Wang that solves the issue. Lin’s free Journal to OneNote Importer saves all that inking effort with an external application to pull in your notes. Sweet!
