Dragon 12 Installation and User Guide
RIA extensions enable you to use supported Web browsers to dictate content and com-
mands. The feature uses Full Text Control in supported browsers and Web applications to
help you perform common tasks by voice. For example, you can say "Click Inbox," or "Go to
Subject" or "Click Sent Mail." Also see Using Dragon's Web capabilities without RIA.
Windows Live E-mail
Some Internet service providers rebrand Hotmail as Windows Live E-mail. Dragon's RIA
extensions are also available for those implementations.
