Once you've entered a punctuation mark, use a two finger flick to choose
a different punctuation mark. For example, to get a comma, tap the
screen once, and you'll hear period. Now do a two finger flick down, and
you'll hear comma. Now you can just move on to entering your next character.

Hi Sieghard
I know print letters in both upper and lower case and I have to say I’m
doing quite well with the whole thing. I have exactly the same problem
you have. I can’t enter a comma or an apostrophe. Like you, I can do
even the complicated ones like the ampersand or the asterisk but no go
on comma and apostrophe. I smiled when you described getting a vertical
line and such because I had the very same frustration. As for the dash,
I managed to do it several times by doing the horizontal line
backwards. Left to right gave me the underscore and right to left the
dash. Having said that, it worked several times but is far from being
consistent.
Maybe it just can’t be done yet.
Let’s see if someone else figured it out

*Subject:* Handwriting - how to get a comma
Hello,
I am quite intriqued by the new handwriting feature and have been
practicing a bit. I have a feeling that if a person knows how to write
which I do since I lost my sight at the age of almost 17, this could
become a rather efficient method of text input. I actually don’t
understand why Apple does not make this available to all iPhone users
instead of restricting it to Voiceover users.
They could have made Handwriting a keyboard choice so to speak. This way
if you added the “Handwriting” keyboard to your list of keyboards, one
could have simply tapped on the keyboard button at the bottom to switch
to it, but maybe they have their reasons.
Anyhow, I would like to know if somebody has figured out how to best
insert a comma. I know of course I have to switch to the punctuation
area and I have managed to figure out how to do most commonly used
symbols like a period, semicolon, colon, question mark, exclamation
mark, Dollar sign, @ symbol, underscore etc.
I am still having a bit of trouble with a dash, if you draw a horizontal
line across it always interprets it as an underscore.
I don’t think I managed to get a comma done more than once and I have no
idea how I did it. If I simply draw a line down the screen it inserts
this as a “vertical line”, if I give the line a bit of a curve it
usually inserts a right parenthesis. Any explanations are appreciated.
Best regards,
Sieghard
