OneNote Ink Quality

The debate over whether to use OneNote or GoBinder rages on, but one of the frequent reasons I hear for using GoBinder is the "feel" of the ink. People talk about how nice Windows Journal feels compared to OneNote, and GoBinder feels more like Journal than OneNote. Turns out that the only thing that OneNote differs on compared to GoBinder and Journal is Pressure Sensitivity.

So, if you want to make your ink feel more like Journal when using OneNote, here's how you do it.

Tools, Options, Handwriting, and uncheck "Use Pen Pressure Sensitivity".

That's all there is to it. This actually will serve a dual-function, as OneNote no longer has to track the "weight" of the ink (for lack of a better term) and will help reduce the file size.
