If you say “ Spell ” by
itself, without any letters
after it, the
Spell dialog
box opens.
You can then speak the
letters and Dragon will
type them or you can
correct any errors in the
word you spelled.
When spelling, you can
say numbers and special
characters as well as
letters. For example, to
dictate an automobile license plate number, you could say
“
Spell y-h-m-6-0-9 .” Dragon would type yhm609 . Say “ Spell
Cap-m-a-c-m-i-l-l-a-n-trademark ” to get MacMillan ™ in your
document.
Spelling a word adds that word to the active vocabulary. Words
that contain numbers are not added to the vocabulary.
To dictate unusual text such as automobile license plate numbers or
product codes, you can also switch to Spell mode by saying “Switch To
Spell Mode,” and then dictate letters.
You can make the Spell dialog box appear whenever you use the
Spell command by setting the “ Spell” commands bring up the Spell
dialog box option on the Correction tab in the Options dialog box.
See the online help for more information.
You can also access the Spell dialog box when using the Select
or Correct commands.
For a list of how to spell special characters, see the Spelling topic
in the online Help.
