Web-based email and the Dragon plug-in
IMPORTANT: Whenever you use Dragon on the Web (whether for email or for something else), your
experience will depend on several factors, including:
The design of the particular web page at that time
The particular settings in your browser and in the Web-based application
What browser (and what version of that browser) you use. Example: For Google Chrome, Dragon
doesn’t have Full Text Control. It also doesn’t have browser commands (such as “go to address bar”) or
the ability to click links by saying their name.
In three popular browsers, Dragon 12 has additional functionality just in Gmail and Hotmail/Outlook.com, as
described in the next section. At the time of its release, Dragon 12 has is no special functionality for other
Web-based email applications, such as Yahoo Mail.
This feature applies to Internet Explorer (version 9 or 10, 32-bit only), and the latest supported version of
Firefox and Chrome. Please see the KnowledgeBase at support.nuance.com for the latest details on supported
versions. (The makers of Firefox and Chrome frequently release new versions.)
Note: Internet Explorer 9 can be installed on Windows Vista and Windows 7, but not on XP.
IMPORTANT: For the feature to be active, you may need to close and re-open your browser once after
installing Dragon 12. Your browser may present a message (either full screen or just in a small part of your
screen) asking for authorization. Examples are illustrated below.
