Training a new user profile

Immediately after you create your profile, before you begin dictating, you train Dragon to understand your voice.

Performing training either during or after creating a user profile enhances your recognition accuracy. In initial training you read aloud for several minutes from one of the available texts.

NOTE: For information on training a mobile user, see the online help.

If you skipped training earlier to open a user profile, from the DragonBar menu, select Profile > Open User Profile and select your name in the list; then click Open to proceed. Since you have not completed training, options for Training appear.

To train a new user:

1When the Read text aloud to train Dragon page of the wizard appears, choose from these training options:

n Show text with prompting

n Show text without prompting

n Skip training (not recommended)

2In the Read Training Text page of the wizard, click Go.

3If you chose the first training option (Show text with prompting):

n A yellow arrow showing you where to start reading appears.

n Click Go and begin reading the text. To take breaks while you’re training the program, click Pause.

NOTE: To advance through the first two screens, you must say the sentences without pausing. For the rest of the screens, it’s okay to pause in the middle of a sentence.

nWhen the words change color, it means the computer has heard and recognized them.
