Dragon 12 Installation and User Guide
n Search a category on the Web: Starts a Web search of a specific cat-
egory of information in your default browser. Dragon displays your search
string for editing if needed, and then uses your default search provider to
search a specific category for your search terms. See Search a category
on the Web for details.
You can also Search the Web using dates, times, names, or currencies and
Directly open a Web site with Google's "I'm feeling lucky".
Notes
n The option to edit the search string before it is sent to your browser is con-
figurable, so you can turn it off if you prefer. See Display search text
before performing search for details in the Dragon Help.
n Depending on your Web browser and the complexity of the search, dis-
playing the results may take a few moments.
n Your Web browser does not have to be open to start a Web search by
voice. Dragon recognizes when you use a voice search command and
opens your default browser for you. See your browser's documentation
for information on setting the default browser.
