Creating a user adapted to your
recorded speech
Before you can use Dragon NaturallySpeaking with a handheld recorder or mobile
device, you must create a user specifically adapted to the sound of your recorded
speech. You do this by running the New User Wizard and selecting one of the
recorder options as the dictation source.
Steps 1 and 2 assume that you have already created a headset microphone user. If you
have not previously created a user for Dragon NaturallySpeaking, then the New User Wizard will
appear when you first start the program and you can skip to step 3.
