The Didger tutorial is a great way to get started in Didger. Tutorial lessons will teach you how to calibrate a tablet, calibrate an image, digitize points and polylines, save and export your projects, convert coordinates to another coordinate system, download online images, and use the automatic vectorization on images. If you are using the demo version of Didger, you will not be able to complete some of the tutorial steps that require saving or exporting. The demo version is a fully functional read-only version of the program. When this is a factor it is noted in the text and you are directed to proceed to the next step that can be accomplished with the demo.

In the event the information cannot be located in the online help, other sources of Didger help include our support forum, FAQs, knowledge base, and contacting our technical support engineers.
Various font styles are used throughout the Didger documentation. Bold text indicates menu commands, dialog names, and page names. Italic text indicates items within a dialog such as group names, options, and field names. For example, the Save As dialog contains a Save as type list. Bold and italic text occasionally may be used for emphasis.
In addition, menu commands appear as File | Open. This means, "click on the File menu at the top of the document, then click on the Open command within the File menu list." The first word is always the menu name, followed by the commands within the menu list.
