STU
Differences between STU and Signature SDKs
The main differences between the two SDKs are as follows:
High level Signature SDK
- Simplifies signature capture with a range of Wacom tablets including STU and DTU
- Signature data is saved in an undisclosed proprietary format and can be used with other Wacom signature products such as Signature Scope and Signature Verification
- Signature image creation available in the SDK
- User Interface and signature data format is defined by the SDK
- It is not possible to use more than one tablet with the Signature SDK as it has no mechanism for selecting the device
- Signatures are rendered using Wacom Ink Layer Language (WILL) for a high quality digital pen and ink experience
Low level STU SDK
- Used for signature capture with the range of STU tablets only
- Developer is free to save the signature data in any format but this will not be compatible with the undisclosed Signature SDK data
- User Interface and signature data format are open to the developer
- Signature image must be created by the developer from the pen data values
