Correcting and Editing
78
Although Dragon never makes a spelling mistake, the mistakes
it does make can be challenging to find and fix. Sometimes, what
the program types looks very different from what you actually
said.
To make correcting mistakes easier, Dragon records your voice
as you dictate. You can play back your voice whenever you
cannot tell by looking at your document what you originally
said.
Unless you have Dragon Professional or a higher edition,
playback is available only until you close a document. After you close a
document, Dragon deletes the recorded dictation for that document. See
page 81 for information on saving dictation for later correction
(Professional and higher editions).
Playing back dictation from the Correction menu
When you’re working in the
Correction
menu, click the
Play
Back
button or say “
Play That Back
” to play the dictation that
goes with the words you’re correcting. Then edit the text to
match what you said.
You can set up Dragon to play back dictation automatically
whenever you open the
Correction
menu. On the
NaturallySpeaking menu, select
Tools
>
Options
>
Correction
tab.
On the
Correction
tab, select
Automatic playback on correction
.
Sometimes, there’s no dictation to play back. For example, you
cannot play back text that wasn’t entered by voice, such as
words you typed or pasted into your document.
Even when you have entered text by voice, you cannot play it
back after you have cut it, copied it, pasted it, or otherwise moved it
around in the document.
If you have Dragon Naturally Speaking Professional or Medical
or a higher edition, you can save your dictation with your
document for later playback (see
Dictate now, correct later
on
page 81). Otherwise, you cannot play back dictation after
closing a document.
If dictation is not available, the
Play Back
button is dimmed
(grayed out). When playback is not available, you may find text-
