`Dragon 12 Installation and User Guide
`
`Chapter 1: What's New in
`Dragon Version 12
`
`Here is a list of new features in Dragon 12. You'll find the information under the
`following categories:
`n Dragon is now easier to use
`n Changes that make Dragon faster and more accurate
`n How you'll be more productive with Dragon
`n And there's more
`
`Dragon is now easier to use
`Smart Format Rules:
`Set up auto-formatting and word properties on the fly
`When you make a correction related to formatting, such as abbreviations,
`titles, units of measure, or alternate written forms, Dragon displays its Smart
`Format Rules box, offering to change one of its Auto-Formatting Options or
`Word Property settings.
`You can change settings yourself from the Auto-Formatting Options dialog box
`or the Vocabulary Editor, as in previous versions. The Smart Format Rules
`feature simply "reaches out" to you, making it quick and easy for you to adjust
`the settings you care about.
`Here is an example of the Smart Format Rules dialog box:
`
`For more information, see Using Smart Format Rules.

`

`

`Chapter 1: What's New in Dragon Version 12
`
`Rich Internet Application support:
`Enhanced experience for Gmail and Hotmail
`In addition to its existing functionality for Web browsers, Dragon 12 includes
`browser extensions – also known as plug-ins or add-ons – for the popular
`Web-based applications Gmail and Hotmail. These extensions give you Full
`Text Control in text fields, and enable spoken commands for important tasks.
`Important: In Dragon 12.0, this feature works with
`n Internet Explorer 9 (32-bit)
`n Mozilla Firefox 12 or higher, and
`n Google Chrome 16 or higher
`For more information, see Using Rich Internet Application extensions.
`Require "Click":
`Always, sometimes, or never
`Now you say "Click" by default
`To distinguish commands from dictation, Dragon now waits for you to say
`"Click <menu name >" or "Click <tab name>" to open menus or tabs on the
`Microsoft Office ribbon, or "Click <button name or list box name>" to select
`dialog box controls. For example, to open the Home tab on the ribbon, you
`would say "Click Home" rather than just "Home."
`Now you can require "Click" for menus or controls separately
`Also, the former combined Require "Click" option has been divided to give you
`finer control. In previous releases, this feature controlled both menu and
`control commands – now you can turn off either option individually.
`For example, you could set up Dragon to require that you say "Click" before
`opening a File menu and have it turned off inside dialog boxes. See Require
`"Click" to select menus and Require "Click" to select buttons and other
`controls in the Dragon Help.
`The Dictation Box:
`It's there when you need it
`When you start to dictate in an unknown text field, a text area where Dragon
`doesn’t have Full Text Control, such as in Microsoft PowerPoint, Dragon now
`automatically opens the Dictation Box, where you do have Full Text Control.
`Once your text is ready, you use the box’s Transfer button, and Dragon closes
`the box and inserts your content into the text field where you started.
`The option to automatically open the Dictation Box can be turned on and off in
`the Options dialog box, Miscellaneous tab.
`Note: If this option is disabled, you can open the Dictation Box using its
`hotkey or by saying "show Dictation Box."

`

`Dragon 12 Installation and User Guide
`
`Wireless dictation with Android devices:
`Use your Android as a microphone
`The Remote Microphone app released with Dragon 11.5 for iPhone and other
`iOS devices is now available for Android. Once the app is installed on the
`Android device, you can set up your device with Dragon and use it as a wireless
`microphone over Wi-Fi.
`In Dragon Premium and higher editions, you can add the device to an existing
`user profile. See Adding a mobile device to your user profile in the Dragon Help.
`Otherwise, you can create a new profile for your Android device. See Using a
`mobile device as a wireless microphone and Creating a User Profile in the
`Dragon Help.
`Setting up a smart device is faster with a barcode
`When you set up an Android or iOS smart device for use as a wireless
`microphone, Dragon offers a barcode, so you can just point your device’s
`camera at the computer screen to capture the information that the Dragon
`Remote Microphone Application needs. See Preparing for communication in the
`Dragon Help.
`Open Top Website:
`A new command to find the most popular web sites
`The new command "Open Top Website for <keywords>" directly opens the top-
`ranked page for the keywords you include when you dictate the command. See
`Searching the Web by voice.
`DragonBar in the System Tray:
`New command opens the menu
`If you like to set the DragonBar to display from the Tray Icon only, now you can
`display it by voice as well. Just say "Open Dragon’s tray menu.” See Controlling
`the DragonBar.
`
`Changes that make Dragon faster and more accurate
`Disable unused voice commands:
`Turn off what you're not using and Dragon runs faster
`If you don't use commands to open programs and folders, or to control menus,
`buttons, and other controls in your programs, now Dragon has options to turn
`them off. With Dragon no longer listening for those types of commands, the
`speed of dictation recognition increases.
`n To turn off control of Start menu and Desktop items, on the DragonBar go
`to Tools > Options > Commands, and turn off and Enable launching from
`the Desktop.
`n To turn off control of menus, buttons, or other controls in one or more pro-
`grams, on the DragonBar go to Tools > Options > Miscellaneous > Voice-
`enable menus, buttons, and other controls. You can turn off control of all
`programs or selected programs on the list, which includes Microsoft Out-
`look, Lotus Notes, Internet Explorer, Microsoft Word and WordPad,

`
`Microsoft Excel, WordPerfect, Notepad, and Dragon NaturallySpeaking
`for Windows.
`Optimization reminders:
`Give your vocabulary a tune-up
`Dragon can now help you to improve its accuracy and speed by using a new
`reminder window that prompts you to scan your local computer system and
`adapt your vocabulary based on words and writing styles in typical documents
`and your sent e-mail messages. By learning words and typical phrasing that
`you use, dictation can be faster and more accurate. See Let Dragon learn from
`documents and messages in the Dragon Help.
`Also, the two Dragon Vocabulary tools that you'll be using to make these
`improvements – the former Increase Accuracy From E-Mail and Add Words
`From Documents tools – are renamed in this release as "Learn From Sent E-
`mails" and "Learn From Specific Documents." In addition to the reminder
`option, you can click Tools on the DragonBar to run them when you choose.
`Optimizing the Language model:
`Make Dragon smarter
`Dragon also provides an option to save language model information when you
`save your user profile. The Acoustic and Language Model Optimizer
`accumulates this data from session to session and Dragon prompts you to
`save your language model periodically. The first prompt appears the day after
`you create your profile and then a week later.
`BestMatch V speech model:
`Maximize your computer's resources
`If you have a computer with two or more processors and other required
`resources, Dragon automatically selects the BestMatch V speech model for
`you when you create your user profile. BestMatch V performs two recognition
`passes in parallel and, for U.S. English profiles, assigns the Medium
`vocabulary. See About speech and acoustic models in the Dragon Help.
`Enhanced Bluetooth wireless support:
`Dragon supports the best new devices
`Dragon now takes advantage of wideband Bluetooth to provide higher wireless
`accuracy compared to 8 kHz Bluetooth.
`If you plug in the USB adaptor for a certified wideband Bluetooth microphone,
`such as the Plantronics “Calisto II” BT-300, before you open Dragon, the list of
`audio sources on the New User wizard and the New Dictation Source dialog
`box will contain the option “Enhanced Bluetooth.”
`
`NOTE
`If you are upgrading a user profile for use with a 16 kHz Bluetooth microphone,
`you must add the microphone to the profile as a new dictation source.

`Please see Using multiple dictation sources with a single User Profile in the
`Dragon Help.
`See Begin profile upgrading and Creating a User Profile.
`
`How you'll be more productive with Dragon
`Exporting custom words with their properties:
`The flexibility of XML
`You can choose to export word properties in XML format when you export
`custom word lists for reuse in other user profiles. Exported word lists do not
`include trained pronunciations.
`For more information, see Export Custom Words window and Import list of
`words or phrases in the Dragon Help.
`List all windows:
`Now includes Dragon
`Dragon's "List All Windows" command now includes Dragon windows (Dictation
`Box, Vocabulary Editor, Command Browser, and others). And if you want to see
`just the Dragon windows, you can say "List windows for Dragon," like you can
`say "List windows for Internet Explorer." See Switching between programs and
`windows.
`AutoTranscribe Folder Agent:
`Better file formats and e-mail notifications
`The AutoTranscribe Folder Agent, which automatically schedules transcriptions
`of recordings found in a particular folder into text files, formerly offered only
`.TXT as an output format. Now output is available in .DOC and .RTF formats.
`Administrators can also now set up automatic e-mail notification from the
`command line when a transcription job completes, as explained in Dragon
`NaturallySpeaking Administrator's Guide. Say "Switch to DragonBar" then
`"Help" then "User Documentation."
`Remote Desktop Connection:
`Install Dragon on a server and dictate from anywhere
`Now Dragon Professional and Dragon Legal support remote dictation on
`Windows computers running Windows Server 2008 R2 or Windows 7 Ultimate
`Server. Use remote dictation when you need to connect to a remote computer
`to enter your dictation over a Remote Desktop Connection, and Dragon is
`installed there instead of on your local computer. Multiple instances of Dragon
`can run simultaneously on the remote computer if it is a server.
`See the Dragon NaturallySpeaking Administrator's Guide. Say "Switch to
`DragonBar" then "Help" then "User Documentation."

`
`And there's more
`Faster restores of user profiles:
`Automatic backups
`If Dragon was unable to open your user profile, it presents the Launch Restore
`window, where you can choose from available automatic backups.
`See Dragon couldn't open your user profile in the Dragon Help.
`The interactive tutorial:
`Make friends with your Dragon
`Dragon now features an interactive tutorial, which provides short, progressive
`simulations so that you can practice the basics of dictation, correction,
`spelling, and editing. The interactive tutorial is automatically presented at the
`end of profile creation. You can also access it at any time from the DragonBar’s
`Help menu.
`To provide an optimal environment for beginners, some of Dragon’s usual
`capabilities are disabled in the interactive tutorial. For instance, you cannot
`use your voice to click buttons.
`Say or click "Switch to DragonBar," then "Help," then "Interactive Tutorial."
`More helpful Help menu:
`Find everything you need in one place
`The DragonBar’s Help menu provides access to many Help tools, including the
`Accuracy Center, the Performance Assistant, Dragon's Help, the Tip of the
`Day, the Sidebar, and the tutorials. You'll also find Web links for software
`updates, the main Dragon page on the Web, Technical Support pages, and for
`online registration.
`The Help menu also includes a link for User Documentation, where you can find
`user guides, including the Dragon Administrator Guide, the Dragon Workbook,
`cheat sheets, and instructional videos. You can access the Help at any time by
`saying "Give me help."
`Note: at any time, you can also say "Search the help for <xyz>" to directly
`open the Help window and launch a search for a word or phrase of your choice.
`For example: “Search Dragon Help for open quote dictation box close quote”.
`See Using Help.
`Change the Sidebar font size
`Now you can change the size of text in Dragon's Sidebar – make the text
`smaller if you want to make the Sidebar thinner and prevent the text for the
`commands from wrapping, or you can make the text larger to reduce eye
`strain. See Using the Dragon Sidebar.
`Enhanced Performance Assistant:
`More helpful if you need to speed up Dragon
`The Performance Assistant, a Help tool you can use to boost Dragon's and
`your computer's speed, is now linked from the Accuracy Center and includes
`

`

`

`
`many new options for turning off commands you may not need, such as
`See Welcome to the Performance Assistant in the Dragon Help.
`Tip of the Day:
`Bigger and better
`The Tip of the Day, which displays by default when you open a Dragon user
`profile, and is available from the Help menu and Sidebar, is now more readable,
`and its redesigned window adds a Back button so that you can browse through
`the tips in either direction.
`User Profile properties:
`See all your dictation sources
`The User Profile Properties dialog box now lists multiple dictation sources, such
`as if you use both a headset and a smart device as a microphone or recorder.
`New text-to-speech voices:
`More choices, more natural
`Dragon now provides more natural text-to-speech voices. To try it, select some
`text in an editable document and say "Read That."
`The feature is not intended for non-editable text, such as news text on a Web
`page.
`See Using text-to-speech in the Dragon Help. You can set options in The
`Options dialog box Playback/Text-to-speech tab.
`Multiple text matches:
`Option to turn it off
`Dragon's multiple text matching feature enables you to apply changes to
`multiple instances of matching text in your documents. Dragon now includes an
`option to turn the feature off as required. See Enable multiple text matches and
`Handling multiple text matches.
`Removed and changed commands:
`The following commands have been removed or changed in Dragon V12:
`n "Find a Web site (on | about | for ) [the] <specific topic or Web site>"
`
`You can continue to use "Open top Web site (on | about | for ) [the] <spe-
`cific topic or Web site>" command.
`
`For more information, see Searching the Web by voice.
`n The e-mail commands “mail it to…”, “send this to…”, and “forward that
`to…” have been removed.
`
`You can continue to use “e-mail the selection to…” command.
`
`For more information, see Dictating E-mail and Calendar commands in the
`Dragon Help.
