5 Correcting and Editing
Notes on correcting with another author's user files
This technique works if all work is done on a single computer. Consult your Dragon
NaturallySpeaking reseller about ways to dictate on one computer and correct on
another.
To display the DragonBar Extras toolbar, click the double chevron icon
DragonBar. You cannot display the Extras toolbar if the DragonBar is in cling
mode.
In the Quick Correct list, you can use the mouse or keyboard to select any of the
commands displayed below the correction choices. For example, you can click
"Spell That" to open the Correction dialog box and spell the word.
You may want to select the following on the Correction tab of the Options dialog
box:
"Correct" command brings up Correction dialog box
Automatic playback on correction box
With these settings, Dragon NaturallySpeaking will automatically play back the
author's dictation for each text selection you correct. The Quick Correct list does
not play back dictation.
When you correct someone else's dictation, make sure that the amount of disk space
you have reserved for storing dictation is at least as large as the amount allocated for
the user that created the text. You allocate the disk space on the Miscellaneous tab
of the Options dialog box.
Saving dictation with documents can take up a lot of disk space, typically more than
a megabyte per minute of dictation. To save this space, delete any dictation you no
longer need. Dragon NaturallySpeaking saves dictation in a file with the same name
as the document, but with the extension .dra. For example, if you dictate a
document called MyDoc.rtf and save your dictation, Dragon NaturallySpeaking
saves your dictation in a file called MyDoc.dra in the same directory as your
document.
