Hi David,
I have tried to use Dragon. However even after training you have got to use the dragon bar to correct things. There are situations where suggestions what a word you just spoke might mean and you are supposed to see these suggestions and more or less react in real time. I figure jsay is more about using jaws through dragon not using dragon with jaws.
I ton't think you necessarily need jsay.
But I would like to know how you get on with it.
Cheers
Jeronimo

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Jaws and dragon Naturally speaking


Dear List

I am about to do some extensive research .
I had anticipated transcribing interviews into potentially  large documents
which can be 30-50 pages long.
I use Jaws 11 and am a reasonably proficient touch typist but nevertheless
this this is likely to be an onerous task.

I had considered using Dragon Naturally Speaking as an alternative.
Realistically I could not expect it to  recognise the voices of my
interviewees but have considered simply listening to the interviews via
earphones and dictating the recording back into DNS myself.

I am not sure how feasible it is  to use dragon Naturally speaking with Jaws
in this way.  More particularly would there be a problem with the training
of my voice recognition for the program? Presumably this is the only hurdle
that really needs to be overcome?   Dragon can be bought I see for quite
reasonable cost.   I have seen it advertised for about £40. I investigated
the J-Say  scripts to work with Jaws  and there the combined dragon J-Say
scripts package, in contrast,  is horrifically expensive  at over $800.

My question is do I really need this expensive add on to work DNS  with Jaws
11?

I am a reasonably proficient Jaws user and would be happy to use things like
the Jaws Cursor to read necessary parts of the  program.

Thanks for any assistance.


David Griffith
