Preparing for the Roaming feature
1. Create network storage location for Master Roaming User Profiles. For example, you can create
a shared drive that all Dragon users will have read/write access to. In this example, we'll name
this shared folder
Dragon
.
2. In the shared
Dragon
folder, you can create 2 sub-folders;
Dragon Profiles
and
Data Direc-
tory
.
l Dragon Profiles is the location for the master copies of the User Profiles. (For
planning purposes allow for 500 MB per User Profile.)
l Data Directory is the location for custom commands and word lists that auto-
matically update the User Profiles by use of the Data Directory Tool.
For more information, see Setting up the Roaming feature.
