  • Powered By The Latest Dragon
    Dragon Dictate's remarkable accuracy is powered by the latest version of the state-of-the-art Dragon speech recognition engine. This is the same state-of-the-art technology used by Dragon NaturallySpeaking 11 for the PC.

  • Easier Editing
    New commands are easy to say, easy to remember, and designed to simplify and speed up editing by voice. These commands include:

    • "Select ", "Select Next/Previous"
    • "Delete" , "Delete Next/Previous"
    • "Train " or "Correct "
    • "Insert Before/After "
    • "Capitalize" , "Capitalize Next/Previous"
    • "Lowercase" , "Lowercase Next/Previous"
    • "Uppercase" , "Uppercase Next/Previous"
    • And more!

  • Proofreading
    The new Proofreading commands in Dragon Dictate 2.0 take advantage of the powerful Text-to-Speech capabilities built into Mac OS X. Use these commands to have dictated text read back to you:

    • "Read/Proofread "
    • "Read/Proofread The Selection"
    • "Read/Proofread Document"

  • Surrounding Punctuation
    These commands allow you to put punctuation around certain words, using a single command. Some examples are:

    • "Put Quotes Around <text> "
    • "Put Parentheses Around <text> "
    • "Put Brackets Around <text> "
    • And more!

  • Voice Shortcuts for Search
    Dragon Dictate's voice shortcuts offer an easy way to search the web for information, or search your Mac for content. Speak a dynamic command, such as "Search Google for 'Italian restaurant'", or "Search Mac for 'history term paper'", and Dragon Dictate helps you find what you're looking for.

  • Flexible Microphones
    Switching between microphones is easier to manage with Dragon Dictate 2.0. A new "Audio Sources" setting lets you specify which microphones to use with a given Profile. You can even designate multiple microphones for a single Profile -- for example, if you use both a wired headset microphone and a wireless microphone.

  • MouseGrid
    Placement of the cursor can be accomplished with MouseGrid commands. Using numbered 3x3 grid sections onscreen, you can narrow down the placement of the mouse pointer, and then use a Mouse Click command. Some of the MouseGrid commands are:

    • "Open MouseGrid" or "MouseGrid"
    • "Small MouseGrid" (directly around mouse pointer)
    • "1" through "9", to narrow down placement
    • "Close MouseGrid", or "Cancel"

  • Mouse Click
    To click the mouse, you simply speak a command, with optional <modifiers> that designate one or more keys such as Command, Option, Shift or Caps Lock. Choose from these new commands:

    • " <modifiers> Mouse Click"
    • " <modifiers> Mouse Double Click"
    • " <modifiers> Mouse Triple Click"
    • " <modifiers> Press Mouse, or Hold Mouse"
    • "Release Mouse"

    New commands let you move the mouse pointer, just by using your voice. You designate the direction (left, right, up, down, or any combination), and optionally the distance (points, centimeters or inches). These new commands are available in Dragon Dictate 2.0:

    • "Move Mouse <direction>"
    • "Stop, or Slower, or Faster"
    • "Move Mouse <direction> 1-100 Points/Centimeters/Inches"
