Abstract
A graphics or digital tablet is a digital drawing tool for sketching or drawing with the aid of a computer. The tablet plugs into the computer and comes with a pen-like stylus that allows more artistic control than doing the same actions with a mouse. The stylus feels natural — not just while sketching but also while doing photo touch-ups.
