Abstract

The present invention is a character input method using touch pad, which can use the touch pad on the notebook computer to input characters. The present invention is to divide the actual operation area of the touch pad into several virtual buttons, wherein the user himself can define each virtual button with the represented character, so that when the user presses down any virtual button, he can rapidly input the represented character to improve the convenience of character input for the notebook computer.
