in between now
This is my new Dragon voice recognition software. It took a long period to install because when connected to the Internet it completely changed out the version 12 I received two the newer version 12.5. It went through a lengthy training session, where I read John F. Kennedy痴 inaugural address so that it could learn my speech. It also went into my existing documents and email and search down different vocabulary to retain. Good thing I don稚 swear when I write. Ha ha.

I am dictating this into Microsoft Word and I am not making any corrections at all. I am certainly speaking abnormally slowly and clearly but it does seem to work. Now the question is can I draw a picture of a tractor? Probably not

I guess the best way of doing this is to dictate into Microsoft Word and then cut and paste into whatever other document I wish, like TV and. Correction TV and. Well, that did not work it printed out correction instead of going into the correction menu. Likely operator error. Turn off

it and hopefully i will get smarter with use.

Does all that cutting, pasting and speaking slowly really save you any time?

Not sure if this will work type directly into TBN
Cool, there is a transfer button and when I hit the transfer it goes directly into the area place where the cursor is
I can see that I still must be talking with a slight list because some of my essays don't come out right. To funny. There could be some real bloopers with this. I wonder if this software knows what a smiley face is. I can see using this software or writing a book, let's say, or perhaps for an older person or someone disabled with arthritis or something that makes it hard to type. Since I always check my spelling, I can see that there is a lot of checking the done here but sometimes it comes out perfectly.I'm curious see how it deals with slime for example,. Again, to funny; though word is slang not slime. Hey cause what's happening? Or perhaps if it knows the names of tractors? John Deere, Kubota, new Holland, international Harvester, three bottom class, okay how did allow become class? Farm wow. This is getting funnier. Wow PLO W.

Drew, I'm sure my country talking would throw it for a loop. One of these days I might check it out. But for now, I type pretty well for someone who took one year of typing in 1977. Good luck with your recovery.

Funny thread.

Seriously, though, drinking heavily could cause anyone to list and you should never allow immediately after drinking. That's just common cents smiley face thumbsup

Sorry about your cast/sore ARM, daugen. Hope you heal ASAP.

This is an experiment to see how quickly I can speak into this software and actually have an understand what I知 saying. Here we go 12345678 910 ABC DEF GH I JK element of the

Patient information

Visiting patients in the Post anesthesia care unit. After surgery the patient will be taken to the recovery room, known as the Post anesthesia care unit brackets PAC you and brackets. Many patients in the PAC you were returning to consciousness; therefore it is important at St. Mary痴 creates a quiet and calm atmosphere. Within 90 minutes of the patient痴 admission to the PAC you, the nurse will call you in the surgical waiting area. At this time the nurse will form patient痴 progress and arrange for your visit.


Overall, not too bad, and if I use the correction process conscientiously, this would probably get fairly accurate

But you could never fully trust it to be exact in my opinion.

Mad Max, thank you.

If I were only a one fingered typist, I wouldn't bother either.

But I can actually type accurately at 60 to 80 words per minute; which in some ways makes me wonder if that's one of the reasons my wrist wore out.

Now this is interesting.

The prior post 12 was just fine when I pasted it, but now after reloading the page, several words have been distorted. Does anyone know why this happens,

Drew that happens when cutting/pasting from word processors. IIRC it is a font issue and changeing the default font may help with that. Also happens when cutting/pasting from web browsers.

ASCII vs Unicode...
From a post in another thread on the subject:
The "remove formatting" doesn't fix this issue (at least not in the enhanced editor, it may in the WSYSIG/Rich Text editor). This is caused by angled quotes ( Quotes.PNG). They are a problem because TBN uses ASCII and ASCII only has straight quotes while the angled quotes are Unicode
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quotation_mark_glyphs said:
Code - Unicode name - HTML - Comments
U+2018 - left single quotation mark - ‘ - Single curved quote, left
U+2019 - right single quotation mark - ’ - Single curved quote, right
U+201C - left double quotation mark - “ - Double curved quote, or "curly quote", left
U+201D - right double quotation mark - ” - Double curved quote, right

Thanks guys, what was weird is that it was correct the first time. I can understand if the first pass was corrupted but how could it be correct and then corrupt itself?
Do do do do do do do
You can adjust the horizontal and you can adjust the vertical…

Drew, I could use your software this morning. I am using my tablet for the first time in two years. I don't know how folks do this on phones. I have a pretty good sized screen and I`m still making a mess of it.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with making a mess, on a tractor forum.

It's what we do :D

It's in the jeans.

Then they get washed.
