Exactly what I need

Pros: If one doesn't know how to pronounce a Chinese character, it will be very difficult to locate it in the dictionary. And that can be a major pain to read ancient Chinese literatures. With this handwriting recognition program I am now able to easily look up a new character by putting the recognized character to the electronic dictionary on my computer to get its pronunciation and meanings.

I've been looking for such a tool for a long time. MS handwriting recognition tool is no where to be found on the internet so I can't say how good/bad it is. But this tool work well enough that it can even recognize many characters written in single stroke.

Cons: The price tag is a bit high, but given its simple intuitive UI and powerful recognition engine, it's worth it, at least to me.
