Tablet support in Office 2007

Hi!

I downloaded the trial version of Crossover Office to see if everything works before I buy it, and I have run into one problem. Office 2007 installed fine on Ubuntu Hardy x64, but when I try to use the pen tool (because I am using it on a tablet--the HP Pavilion TX2500), it says "OneNote requires Microsoft Windows Tablet PC Edition 2005 with Service Pack 2 in order for inking features to work properly. You can install Service Pack 2 from the Windows product pages on the Microsoft Web site."

I looked around Crossover's config but saw no way of changing the bottle, and it chooses Windows XP automatically when I install it.

What are my options here? Thank you very much for your help

There's no underlying Windows OS to apply a service pack to, and an OS level driver is what's needed to get the pen working, so there isn't anything this SP2 update can apply to and fix.

Are you saying Crossover doesn't support tablet input?

Thank you for your time and help.

Yes, Crossover does not support tablet input.
