Key points about custom commands
 In the higher editions, you can quickly create custom commands to insert blocks of text and/or graphics in
your documents. This is done in the tool MyCommands Editor, which you can bring up by saying add
new command.
 If the boilerplate text already exists in an electronic document, you can copy and paste it into the
MyCommands Editor’s Content box, or say make that a shortcut.
 It’s a very good idea to use the Description field to note a comment, a reminder…
 Names for custom commands should be memorable, intuitive, easy-to-pronounce phrases. Avoid names
that could be used as dictation, such as single words.
 The Name Editor lets you add <variables> in command names, to provide synonyms or variations (using
lists you define yourself, or existing lists such as <1to10>).
 In the Professional and Legal editions, you can add fillable [Fields] to your boilerplate commands to
create “DragonTemplates” which can be navigated and filled out by voice.
 In the Professional and Legal editions, the Command Browser allows you to rename, modify, “clone”,
delete, export and import custom commands.
