Wacom Bamboo Craft Pen and Touch

Question

Wacom Bamboo Craft Pen and Touch

Hi,

I have a Bamboo Craft Pen and Touch and wanted to scribble notes directly on texts written with Pages or Word 2008 for Mac and on Powerpoint or Keynote slides. The way I am using it with "ink" only allows me to create images of notes which can be pasted on texts. Is there a software or a way to write and draw directly on the texts/slides? I wrote Wacom an e-mail and after three days did not get any answer yet.
Thanks

Mac Book Pro 2.5 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo 4 GB RAM, Mac OS X (10.6.2)

This forum refers these questions to the manufacturers of the text editing software (Apple and Microsoft). I trying to see whether somebody here has found a way to use the tablet and pen to write on texts and slides.

I've got a Wacom and have wanted to do this for years - unfortunately, it won't work directly. The only way you can do it is to open Ink and write your signature onto the pad. You can then hit "send" and "paste" it in Pages for instance and your sig will show up.
