General hints and tips
Keep these things in mind whenever you dictate:
v
Nearly everything you say into the microphone gets recognized as text or
an action to carry out—a text format, a cursor movement or a file-save,
file-close command. When your words are not recognized, you’ll see a
message to this effect in the VoiceCenter status area.
v
Speak clearly in a natural way. ViaVoice translates your speech into text.
There is no need to pause between words, but make natural pauses after a
phrase or sentence. You may pause at any time to take a breath or collect
your thoughts.
v
Say punctuation marks as part of your dictation. ViaVoice adjusts spacing
and capitalization accordingly. For example, when you say "Period" at the
end of a sentence, ViaVoice types a period, moves one space and starts the
next word with a capital letter.
If you are using the UK English version of ViaVoice, substitute "Full stop"
whenever you see the US English command "Period" in this User’s Guide.
When you say "New paragraph", ViaVoice inserts a line and starts the next
word with a capital letter. Look in the What Can I Say window for a list of
the punctuation and characters that you can insert into your dictation.
(Characters and punctuation are also listed in Appendix A, “Frequently
used commands in dictation” on page 133.)
v
When saying a command, pause before the command, speak the command
without pausing between command words and then pause after the
command. This way, ViaVoice can interpret your speech as a command.
Incidentally, if you pause just to collect your thoughts, ViaVoice will expect
to hear a command. If the next words you say are not a command that
ViaVoice recognizes, it types your words as text.
v
If you find that ViaVoice does not recognize your commands, you can begin
every command with an
Attention word
, which signals that you are about to
say a command. The default Attention word is 'Computer', but you can add
multiple Attention words from the Command Sets tab in ViaVoice Options.
To require the Attention word to be spoken before commands select this
option on the Dictation tab in ViaVoice Options. When it is specified, you
must use it before every command, even commands like "Microphone off".
When using the Attention word, do not pause between the Attention word
and the rest of the command.
