Starting to Dictate
34
feature can be useful in helping you get used to dictation by
focusing on what you are saying rather than how your speech is
punctuated.
Natural Punctuation inserts only periods and commas. You
have to dictate other punctuation marks. Even with Natural
Punctuation turned on, you can still dictate periods and
commas. As you become more adept at dictation and want more
control over where punctuation appears, you may want to
explicitly dictate all your punctuation.
You can turn Natural Punctuation on and off by voice by saying
"autopunctuation on" and "autopunctuation off" or by selecting Tools >
Auto-Formatting Options from the menu of the DragonBar and
clicking Automatically add commas and periods.
For more information on Natural Punctuation see Using
Natural Punctuation on page 103.
Dictating punctuation
You can dictate punctuation at any time while you are using
Dragon, even when Natural Punctuation is enabled.
Use the following list as a guide to dictating the most common
punctuation marks. (For a complete list of punctuation, see the
online help.)
