CHAPTER 1
Introduction
Dragon NaturallySpeaking User’s Guide 5
The new correction workflow lets you dictate your entire document and
then quickly move along and correct phrase by phrase as needed. See
“Ways to correct your dictation” on page 144.
Find commands easily with Sample Commands and Command Browser
Can’t remember a command? A Sample Commands window displays
voice commands for the most popular applications alongside your work.
See “Sample Commands” on page 100.
The new Command Browser lets you search for commands by
application, making it easy to find what you need. It also allows you to
train or modify your commands. See “The Command Browser” on page
98.
Create your own commands
Create custom commands (macros) quickly and easily. Depending on
your edition of Dragon NaturallySpeaking
®
, a variety of macro creation
tools are available to let you be more productive.
Text and Graphics commands
Create a letter closing and include your signature as a bitmap. You can
add this to any document with one simple voice command. This is just
one example of how Text and Graphics commands let you automate
common tasks. (Available in Preferred and higher editions.) See
“Automate Your Work” on page 125.
Macro Recorder
If you repeat the same action frequently, you can use the Macro
Recorder to record your mouse movements, clicks, and keystrokes, then
recall the action at any time with a voice command. (Available in
Professional Solutions and higher editions.) See “Automate Your Work”
on page 125.
Step-by-Step commands
By creating voice commands one step at a time, you can automate more
complicated tasks even if you are not a programmer. For example, with a
single voice command you can turn the microphone off, open an
application, type text and commands in the application, then turn the
microphone on again. (Available in Professional Solutions and higher
editions.) See “Automate Your Work” on page 125.
