just text.
State-of-the-art speech model for powerful PCs:
If yours is a powerful PC with two or more processors, Dragon automatically selects the BestMatch V, its latest
and greatest speech model, when you create your user profile.
The Interactive Tutorial:
Dragon now features an interactive tutorial, which provides short, progressive simulations so that you can
practice dictation, correction, spelling, and editing efficiently. Content includes the “press” and “go back”
commands as well as the Smart Format Rules feature. The interactive tutorial is automatically presented at the
end of profile creation. You can also access it at any time from the DragonBar’s Help menu. (To do this by
voice, say "Switch to DragonBar," then "Help," then "Interactive Tutorial.")
Note: To provide an optimal environment for beginners, some of Dragon’s usual capabilities are disabled in the
interactive tutorial. For instance, you can only speak the current prompt, and you cannot use your voice to click
anything.
Richer Help menu:
The DragonBar’s Help menu provides access to many Help tools, including the Accuracy Center, the
Performance Assistant, Dragon's Help, the Tip of the Day, the Learning Center, the regular Tutorial and the
Interactive Tutorial. You'll also find Web links for software updates, the main Dragon page on the Web,
Technical Support pages, and product registration.
The Help menu also includes a link for printable User Documentation on the Nuance website.
Note: At any time, you can access the Help at any time by saying "Give me help."
Also, at any time, you can also say "Search the help for <xyz>" to directly open the Help window and launch a
search for a word or phrase of your choice. For example: “Search Dragon Help for open quote dictation box close
quote”.
Sidebar’s font size:
Now you can change the size of text in Dragon's Sidebar – make the text smaller if you want to make the Sidebar
thinner and prevent the text for the commands from wrapping, or you can make the text larger to reduce eye
strain.
Tip of the Day:
The Tip of the Day (which displays by default when you open a Dragon profile and is available from the Help
menu) contains many new tips. Also, its redesigned window adds a Back button so that you can browse through
