What is WebTablet Netscape Plugin?
The Wacom Tablet Plugin (Webplugin) is a browser extension that provides supports for obtaining certain tablet properties, which can be used in web applications. The plugin works in conjunction with an installed Wacom tablet driver service to provide pen data such as pressure and pen position and touch data such as number of fingers touching tablet and finger data.
