Using speech recognition
SpeechExec supports two types of
speech recognition. Your words are
transcribed onto your screen as you
dictate (online speech recognition) or
files that where previously recorded (e.g.
on a Pocket Memo or a SpeechAir) are
transcribed when they are downloaded
to your computer (offline speech
recognition).
Online speech recognition
Dictate directly into the speech
recognition software and have your
spoken text transcribed by Dragon
straight away.
