Sometimes, there’s no dictation to play back. For example, you cannot
play back text that wasn’t entered by voice, such as words you typed or
pasted into your document.

Even when you have entered text by voice, you cannot play it back after you

have cut it, copied it, pasted it, or otherwise moved it around in the document.

If you have Dragon Naturally Speaking Professional or a higher edition,
you can save your dictation with your document for later playback (see
Dictate now, correct later” on page 26). Otherwise, you cannot play
back dictation after closing a document.

If dictation is not available, the Play Back button is dimmed (grayed
out). When playback is not available, you may find text-to-speech useful
for checking your work. See “Using text-to-speech” on page 28.

Playing back dictation in a document

To help you check your work for mistakes, you can play back a line, a
paragraph, a selection, or the whole document. After playback starts, you
can stop it as soon as you notice a mistake and automatically open the
Correction dialog box.

The Playback toolbar is an extra section of the DragonBar that is
normally hidden. To see the Playback toolbar, click the double chevron
icon

on the DragonBar to open the Extras toolbar (Preferred and

higher editions).
