This will save someone (probably you) deciphering your handwriting and typing it up later. Scanning is not good enough yet to read handwriting or to interpret which scribble relates to which sketch.

Type the text, but still do lots of drawings in the paper logbook.
<p>If you are typing more than a single paragraph, type it up in another app first, and copy and paste the text into the online form.

<h4 id="sketches">Adding the sketches</h4>
<p>During and after expo, the logbook is scanned and photographed (and the images stored permanently in e.g. <a href="/expofiles/writeups/2024/">/expofiles/writeups/2024/</a> ).
