Dragon 12 Installation and User Guide
Please see Using multiple dictation sources with a single User Profile in the
Dragon Help.
See Begin profile upgrading and Creating a User Profile.
How you'll be more productive with Dragon
Exporting custom words with their properties:
The flexibility of XML
You can choose to export word properties in XML format when you export
custom word lists for reuse in other user profiles. Exported word lists do not
include trained pronunciations.
For more information, see Export Custom Words window and Import list of
words or phrases in the Dragon Help.
List all windows:
Now includes Dragon
Dragon's "List All Windows" command now includes Dragon windows (Dictation
Box, Vocabulary Editor, Command Browser, and others). And if you want to see
just the Dragon windows, you can say "List windows for Dragon," like you can
say "List windows for Internet Explorer." See Switching between programs and
windows.
AutoTranscribe Folder Agent:
Better file formats and e-mail notifications
The AutoTranscribe Folder Agent, which automatically schedules transcriptions
of recordings found in a particular folder into text files, formerly offered only
.TXT as an output format. Now output is available in .DOC and .RTF formats.
Administrators can also now set up automatic e-mail notification from the
command line when a transcription job completes, as explained in Dragon
NaturallySpeaking Administrator's Guide. Say "Switch to DragonBar" then
"Help" then "User Documentation."
Remote Desktop Connection:
Install Dragon on a server and dictate from anywhere
Now Dragon Professional and Dragon Legal support remote dictation on
Windows computers running Windows Server 2008 R2 or Windows 7 Ultimate
Server. Use remote dictation when you need to connect to a remote computer
to enter your dictation over a Remote Desktop Connection, and Dragon is
installed there instead of on your local computer. Multiple instances of Dragon
can run simultaneously on the remote computer if it is a server.
See the Dragon NaturallySpeaking Administrator's Guide. Say "Switch to
DragonBar" then "Help" then "User Documentation."
