My doctor recommended that I start using dictation software to reduce the amount of typing that I do. I have purchased Dragon Naturally Speaking V. 12. It works well, but being new to this type of software, I was just wondering if anyone could offer any suggestions to me concerning using it.

I use Dragon Dictate to write long academic papers and often my sermon manuscripts. I am a terribly inefficient 2 finger typist, and it helps... a LOT.

It learns as you use it more an more, and do NOT skip the training exercises: they help the software become accustomed to your accent, speech rhythm and context word usage. The error rate goes down as you use it often.

I have found that to be true also PG.

what PG said. I used a much older version when I was writhing thesis papers for undergrad work and for my masters. Sometimes for sermon/teaching prep as well.

I used Dragon Naturally Speaking v.12 this week for the first time to write my sermon. I was surprised how accurate it was in recognizing my "southern dictation." Thanks for the advice PG. I will certainly do more of the excercises.
