User Guide

Correcting with your own user files

You should use this correction technique if you regularly correct another person’s text by voice and it is not important to maximize the author’s recognition accuracy.

When you use your own user files to correct someone else’s text, you can correct the dictation just as you would correct your own dictation, using any combination of voice commands and keyboard typing. Even though you are correcting someone else’s dictation, your work won’t reduce recognition accuracy for either you or the person who dictated the text. But your corrections to the other person’s dictation won’t improve his or her 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.

TIP: This technique works if all work is done on a single computer. Consult your Dragon 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 Correction menu, as in the following procedure.

To correct using someone else’s user files:

1Make sure you are not wearing the microphone headset, or that the microphone is not turned on or plugged in. This action ensures that you don’t accidentally reduce the accuracy of someone else’s user files by using your voice.

2Be sure the DragonPad Extras toolbar is displayed so you can see the playback command buttons.

3Open the user files of the person whose text you will correct.

4In DragonPad, open the document to correct.
