Postal and ZIP Codes
US ZIP Codes
You can dictate US five-digit ZIP codes just as you dictate any group of
numbers. When dictating nine-digit ZIP codes, you must say the
hyphen.
UK and Canadian Postal Codes
You can dictate UK postcodes by saying “Postcode” followed by the
letters and numbers that make up the postcode. For Canadian postal
codes, say “Postal code” followed by the letters and numbers that make
up the postal code. Spacing and formatting will happen automatically.
To have Dragon NaturallySpeaking
®
format postal codes automatically, you
must first activate this feature in the Options dialog box. Click Options from the Tools
menu on the DragonBar, then click the Formatting tab to see the formatting options, and
select “Format Postal Codes.”
