Dragon NaturallySpeaking 10 Preferred gives small business and advanced PC users the power to create documents, reports and emails three times faster than most people type. All with up to 99% accuracy. Surf the Web by voice or dictate and edit in Microsoft Word and Excel, Corel WordPerfect and most other Windows based applications. New Dragon Voice Shortcuts reduce common multi-click tasks to simple voice commands. Create custom commands to insert blocks of text or bitmaps - such as name, title and signature - with a single voice command.

• What's new in version 10:
  • Unprecedented Speech Recognition Accuracy - Version 10 offers accuracy levels that are unrivalled in desktop speech recognition, with up to 20% fewer speech recognition errors out of the box than Version 9.
  • New User Interface - Introduces new graphical icons to enhance the DragonBar user interface, making the product even easier to use.
  • New Quick Voice Formatting commands - Allow you to issue a single voice command, such as "Bold Quick Voice Formatting", to make formatting and deleting text faster than ever. In addition, the extensive set of Natural Language Commands avoids the need to memorise complex instructions. In Word, for example, just say "make that bigger" and the font size increases instantly.
  • New Dragon Voice Shortcuts for Web Search - make searching the Web faster and easier. By saying a command containing desired search words, such as "Search the Web for financial management resources", version 10 will use the default search engine and Web browser to enter your dictated term(s) in the search field and return the results.
  • New Dragon Voice Shortcuts for Desktop Search - Introduces commands to search the computer as directly as the Web, by dictating the word(s) to find documents, emails and web browsing history.
