recognition accuracy for either you or the person who dictated the text. But your
corrections to the other person's dictation won't improve recognition either.

Correcting with the document author's user files

You should use this correction technique if you do not need to correct by voice and
it is important to maximize the author's recognition accuracy.

This technique works if all work is done on a single computer. Consult your Dragon

NaturallySpeaking reseller about ways to dictate on one computer and correct on another.

If you correct dictation using the author’s user files, you must not correct by voice,
or you may reduce that person’s recognition accuracy. You can, however, improve
the author’s recognition accuracy if you make corrections by using the keyboard and
mouse with the Quick Correct list or Correction dialog box. See the following
procedure for details.

To correct using someone else's user files:

1

Make sure you are not wearing the microphone headset, or that the microphone
is not turned on or plugged in. This will ensure that you don't accidentally
reduce the accuracy of someone else's user files by using your voice.

2

Make sure the DragonPad Extras toolbar is displayed so you can see the
playback command buttons.

3

Open the user files of the person whose text you will correct.

4

In DragonPad, open the document to correct.

5

Use the buttons on the Extras toolbar to play back dictation.

6

Select the text you want to correct by mouse or keyboard.

7

Press the correction hot key (normally the minus [-] key on the numeric key
pad) or click the Correct button on the DragonBar Extras toolbar. The Quick
Correct list or Correction dialog box appears with the selected text.

8

Use the keyboard to correct the text.

9

Save the text and the user's speech files when you are done.

Using text-to-speech

Text-to-speech is available in Dragon NaturallySpeaking Preferred and higher
