Additional information on Dragon Notes:
Auto-detection works best when dictating in a quiet environment with little background noise.
The Author Name and Time Stamp will always be displayed in the Note when inserting a new Note in a PDF
file. By default, the Author Name will be the Windows User Name.
To edit a specific Note’s Author Name, right click on the Note and select “Properties”, and then adjust the
“Author” field on the “Author and Subject” tab.
Dragon Notes options can be found under “Edit > Preferences > Speech > Dragon Notes”.
Here is where you can specify the dictation language that should be used, to enable/disable the auto-detection
of dictation endings and also to Reset the Profile. If poor accuracy occurs while using Dragon Notes, try
resetting the profile and if accuracy improves.
