Playing back your dictation

Playback commands work in the DragonPad, Microsoft Word (Versions 97, 2000, 2002, 2003, and 2007), Corel WordPerfect (Versions 8, 9, 10, and 12), and Lotus Notes.

Although Dragon never makes a spelling mistake, the mistakes it does make can be challenging to find and fix. Sometimes, what the program types looks very different from what you actually said.

To make correcting mistakes easier, Dragon records your voice as you dictate. You can play back your voice whenever you cannot tell by looking at your document what you originally said.

NOTE: Unless you have Dragon Professional or a higher edition, playback is available only until you close a document. After you close a document, Dragon deletes the recorded dictation for that document. See page 88 for information on saving dictation for later correction (Professional and higher editions).

Playing back dictation from the Correction menu

When you’re working in the Correction menu, click the Play Back button or say “Play That Back” to play the dictation that goes with the words you’re correcting. Then edit the text to match what you said.
