Welcome to the forum.

I don't have one to test but I do not think that AOO supports graphics tablets like the Wacom Intuos Pen.

AOO might see it as a mouse, and you might find it useful in AOO Draw.

I don't think OO supports Windows Ink, either, but I sure would like it to. In particular, I would like to make a Writer document and be able to write pen marks in a layer over top of it.
