Formatting text
In the DragonPad, Microsoft Word, Corel WordPerfect and WordPad,
you can use commands to specify any combination of font name, size,
and style, in that order. These commands change text you dictate from
then on, or text you have selected.
To set a new style for text you are about to dictate, use the “
Set Font
”
and “
Set Size
” commands. To change text you have already dictated, or
text you select, use the “
Format That
” command. You can also select text
and apply (or remove) bold, italics, underline, or strikeout formats, or
change the alignment of text.
Changing the font as you dictate
When you’re dictating, you can change the font face, size, and style by
saying
“Set Font”
followed by the font attributes you want.
For example, you can say
“Set Font Times”
or
“Set Font Arial 12 Bold.”
When you continue dictating, the new text appears with the font
attributes you set.
Changing font face
Changing font size
Say
“Set Size”
and then a size from 4 to 100 points (or 120 points). For
example, say
“Set Size 18.”
Then, continue dictating.
SAY THEN
(one)
Set Font Times
Times New Roman
