Abstract
A method for editing an electronic image on a touch screen display according to one example embodiment includes detecting a sequence of movement of at least one of a user'"'"'s fingers on a touch screen display and determining whether the detected sequence of movement matches one of the characters in a font set. If the detected sequence of movement matches one of the characters in the font set, the matched character is entered in the electronic image. If the detected sequence of movement does not match one of the characters in the font set, a representation of the detected sequence of movement is entered in the electronic image.
