Product Description
Have you ever wanted to rig a microphone to your computer, throw away your keyboard, and dictate everything instead of having to type it out? Dragon NaturallySpeaking enables you to do just that, but turning it from a technological miracle into a working tool takes a little practice.
Dragon NaturallySpeaking For Dummies targets new users who are impressed by its capabilities but want to optimize its features. The book is organized thematically and addresses the following topics:
- Installing and launching NaturallySpeaking
- Training yourself (and others!) on basic editing, formatting, and dictation features
- Proofreading and correcting text transcribed from your voice
- Using NaturallySpeaking to interface with other applications (like Web browsers or word processors)
- Dictating e-mails, memos, and calendar appointments remotely
- Customizing NaturallySpeaking to adapt to your way of speaking and to recognize more words in your vocabulary
From the Back Cover
Dictate to Word, WordPerfect, Outlook, and other popular applications
Packed with tips for all NaturallySpeaking editions
Write and edit anything on your computer just by speaking! Dragon NaturallySpeaking is the most accurate voice recognition software available, but getting top results can be tricky. Here's everything you need to kiss that keyboard goodbye — including advice on dictating, editing, Web browsing, and running your computer with voice commands.
