Free Speech Recognition Tutorial 6 - Dictating to Other Word Processors



For this tutorial Works 9, Notepad and WordPad will be used. NotePad is really a text editor but is still used for this tutorial. Some programs like Works 9 has limited function with WSR. Diction must be done in the Correction Dialog Box. It is suggested that dictating and inserting one sentence at a time works best. Also, Works 9 has a problem with calling menu items. To click on menu items use Show Numbers or Mouse Grid.
Unfortunately, OpenOffice.org Writer does not work with WSR. A good work around is to use WordPad for dictation then copy and paste the text into OpenOffice.org. Some forums have suggested that Dragon Dictate / Dragon Naturally Speaking may work with OpenOffice.org. SchoolFreeware has not tried this out, so we do not have an opinion on any Dragon software.
