CHAPTER 4 Correcting and Editing If you say "Spell" by itself, without any letters after it, the Spell dialog box opens. v The Spell dialog box, waiting for you to spell. You can then spell letters and Dragon NaturallySpeaking® will type them or correct any errors in the word you spelled. This makes it a bit easier to correct errors when spelling. When spelling, you can say numbers and special characters as well as letters. For example, to dictate an automobile license plate number, you could say "Spell v-j-r-5-8-1." Dragon NaturallySpeaking® would type "vjr581." Say "Spell Cap-e-z-b-r-a-i-n-trademark" to get "Ezbrain™" in your document. Spelling a word adds that word to the active vocabulary with the exception of words that contain numbers; words with numbers are not added to the vocabulary. TIP To dictate unusual text such as automobile license plate numbers or product codes, you can also switch to Spell mode by saying "Switch To Spell Mode," and then dictate letters. For a list of what to say to spell special characters, see the Spelling topic in the online Help or "Commands List" on page 217. By default, the Spell dialog box appears only when you say "Spell" by itself, not when you say "Spell" plus the letters you are spelling. Optionally, you can make the Spell dialog box appear whenever you use the Spell command. You can set this option from the Correction tab in the Options dialog box. See page 198 for more information.
