Each person who wants to use the program needs to create a new set of user speech
files and train Dragon NaturallySpeaking to understand his or her voice. A single
person might want to have more than one set of user speech files (called a user) if,
for example, you dictate into a mobile recorder or in more than one language.
What are user speech files?
Your user speech files contain all the information that Dragon
NaturallySpeaking gathers about you: your pronunciation, your vocabulary,
how often you use certain words, and your preferences.
This chapter explains how to set up Dragon NaturallySpeaking so that more than
one person can use it, and describes how to open, rename, delete, back up, and
restore users. This chapter also describes setting up multiple dictation sources for a
user.
Creating a new user
When someone new wants to use Dragon NaturallySpeaking, that person needs to
follow the steps described in this section to create a new user.
NOTE
train users with multiple dictation sources. For example, with a single set of user files you can dictate
with a headset microphone, an array microphone, or a portable recorder. This way you can keep the

moment. For more information, see "Creating Multiple Dictation Sources" on page 140.
