You can adjust a number of auto formatting settings in the Tools -> Auto Formatting window, but the Smart Format Rules palette can save a lot of time, since it appears the first time you say certain types of texts. When you say certain types of text (numbers, abbreviations, salutations, etc.), the Smart Format Rules palette appears, asking if, for example, you wish to always use numerals or always spell out numbers. (My tests were performed after performing the obligatory 5-minute voice training session after creating a profile.) Correction is a bit smoother as well, and one notable addition is what Nuance calls Smart Format Rules. Nuance refined Dragon Dictate 3’s recognition engine, and in my tests, out-of-the-box accuracy was noticeably better than in the previous version.
In this example, the dictation window shows a commonly-made error by the software: the correction offered for “12” is only “Twelve” and not “twelve.” Dragon Dictate 3 puts dictation into a Notepad document (upper left), and has a new Smart Format Rules feature (lower left). I also recommend downloading theĭragon Dictate Command Cheat Sheet for Mac, which lists the most commonly used commands. While I certainly recommend reading the manual, the tutorial can have you up and running with Dragon Dictate 3 in just a few minutes. The tutorial helps familiarize new users with the basics of dictation: how to speak punctuation, how to correct mistakes, and how to edit text.
