Thanks! I use xournalpp (successor to xournal). So, I am sorry: how does this work. It is plugged in through USB(?) or Bluetooth, and where
does the xournalpp point to (connect to) or take its drawing area from? Sorry, I have been searching online for more information, but have so
far drawn a blank (I am not very adept at DDG searching and that is generally true). Part of the issue is that calling it a writing tablet does
not restrict the other searches about tablet laptops and generic tablets.

Many thanks again and best wishes,
Ranjan
