About DragonPad
DragonPad is Dragon's built-in word processor, which is optimized for dictation.
DragonPad includes basic text formatting features as well as the ability to save
and print documents.
You can use DragonPad when you do not need the capability of a full-featured
word processor. When you have finished dictating, you can say "Copy All To
Clipboard" to copy your text to the Clipboard and "Paste That" to copy the text
from the Clipboard into any other program.
Although it is similar to WordPad, DragonPad is customized for use with Dragon
and contains speech recognition features that are not available in WordPad.
Changing the way text wraps on your screen
As you are dictating in DragonPad, you may want to change the way text wraps
in the DragonPad window.
To change the way text wraps on your screen
1. On the View menu, click Settings.
2. In the Word Wrap group of the Text or the Rich Text tab, select the wrapping
option you want. You can select No wrap, Wrap to window, or Wrap to ruler.
3. Click OK.
Notes
n The wrapping options affect only how text appears on your screen. When
printed, the document uses the margin settings specified in Page Setup.
n You can set different word wrap options for the text format in which you
save the document: text-only (TXT) or rich text format (RTF).
