iPad Notes app tool palette does not have a pencil with an "A" on it?

The Apple support page says that to have your handwriting automatically converted to text in Notes, open the tool palette and select the pen with an "A" on it. I see a pen, but there's no "A" and my handwriting does not convert. I have an iPad Mini (5th Gen) and an Apple Pencil 1. Thx!

iPad mini 5, iPadOS 15
