About profiles and dictation sources
A profile is a set of data on how you speak. Each user of Dragon must create his or her own profile, with a name that
uniquely identifies it.
A dictation source is a microphone you use to dictate with Dragon. For example, you can use:
l Your Mac's internal microphone
l A USB headset
l A Bluetooth microphone
In order to use Dragon, you must have at least one profile and one available dictation source.
Switching profiles and dictation sources
When you start up Dragon, it activates the profile you used most recently. The name of the active profile is shown with
a check mark in the Dragon menu.
