Information Entry & Capture

Narrative & structured memoirs
Now & Then supports many methods for collecting and entering journal information. Entries can be narrative, structured, graphic, and multimedia. They can contain a combination of tables, graphics, calendar timelines, and links to web sites, or other journal entries. Now & Then has a full featured word processor with spell check and thesaurus and all journal entries are automatically tagged with their creation time and date (for retrieval by context and date).

Optimized for Handwriting
Advanced handwriting recognition that understands handwritten page layouts, tables, and other special formats greatly streamlines the entry of logged data and narrative.

Prompted & Guided Entry
The structure of journal entries may suggest the use of a guided, prompted, or structured entry method. For information that is regularly logged and tracked, Now & Then provides a variety of pre-built templates that save entry time and can assure the accuracy of both structured and narrative information.

You may also use prompts to trigger your thoughts and guide your entries. Prompts include questions, thought provoking statements, or sage quotations. You can use the prompts included in pre-built entry templates, use template prompts provided by our partners, or design your own.

Entry Templates
Pre-built templates prompt for, and organize, journal entries for: exercise, health and diet, energy levels, current projects, feelings, insights, and relationships.

Templates provided by our partners help you log, track, and graphically display aspects of your life in detailed and imaginative ways. For your specific needs you can modify and customize any template supplied with Now & Then or provided by our partners. You can also use the Template Builder to create your personal templates from scratch .

Annotations
All journal content can be annotated, or added to, without changing the original. Annotations enable additional notes that may extend, modify, interpret, or add perspective to journal entries (without changing the original entry).
