Correction-only mode (definition)
Enables transcriptionists to play back a Dragon user's dictation without having
their User Profile loaded. Note that dictation is disabled if you select this
option.
Dictation is not available in Correction Only Mode.
Dictation Source (definition)
An audio input device or multiple devices associated with a User Profile. For
example, you can select a headset microphone at one computer and a
portable recorder or another style of mic at other computers. This way, Dragon
supports users who need to move, or “roam”, from computer to computer
regardless of the microphone type or differences in ambient noise.
Rich Internet Application (RIA) extensions
(definition)
Provide Web application extensions in supported Web browsers to enable
commands and Full Text Control in selected browser-based applications. With
RIA extensions, you can dictate content and use commands just as you would
in a desktop program.
Scripting (definition)
Dragon scripting language extensions provide a set of tools for creating voice
commands. Creating scripting commands requires familiarity with the
Microsoft Visual Basic programming language.
Web application support (definition)
Provides Rich Internet Application (RIA) extensions in supported Web
browsers to enable commands and Full Text Control for selected browser-
based applications. With RIA support, you can dictate content and use
commands just as you would in a desktop program.
