10 C H A P T E R Automate Your Work One of the most effective features of Dragon NaturallySpeaking® is its ability to automate your work. Instead of typing the 50 characters of your street address, for example, you can say "street address." To start a new e-mail message addressed to Jackie, just say "New message for Jackie." In the Preferred edition, you can create custom Text and Graphics commands to type text and insert graphics in any application. This chapter shows you how to view, search, create, delete, and rename Text and Graphics commands. For more information, see the Dragon NaturallySpeaking® online Help. Text and Graphics commands Text and Graphics commands enter text and graphics of your choosing. They are useful for such tasks as entering addresses, typing boilerplate passages, entering a signature graphic or company logo, and many other routine tasks. I TIP In addition to the Text and Graphics commands described in this chapter, there is another way to create a command that types up to 128 characters of text. You can use the Vocabulary EditorTM to create a new word that has a written form that is different from its spoken form; for instructions, see "View or edit your vocabulary" on page 163. This technique is especially useful for phone numbers, URLs, and short phrases. Viewing or editing commands To view the commands available in your user file, use the Command Browser. These are Text and Graphics commands you create as well as the commands included with Dragon NaturallySpeaking®. Dragon NaturallySpeaking User's Guide 123
