Using VoiceType (TM) Vocabulary for Legal Dictation for OS/2
(R), Version 1.1 and VoiceType Dictation for Windows+, Version 1.1,
you now can talk directly into your computer and create text faster
than many people can type.
With VoiceType Vocabulary for Legal Dictation, you no longer
have to wait while someone else types your dictation. A highly
accurate sophisticated statistical language model and a detailed
understanding of your voice allows VoiceType Dictation to convert
your words to text. It can even discern words that sound the same,
such as to, too, and two.
VoiceType Vocabulary for Legal Dictation, created in
conjunction with Westlaw Publishing, is designed for corporate and
private law practices. A legal vocabulary of specialized words and
phrases enables VoiceType Dictation to understand the words used in
your daily work. Examples of phrases you can dictate include:
o Entered a plea of nolo contendere
o A writ of habeas corpus
o Nolle prosequi
VoiceType Dictation runs on computers with 486 and Pentium**

OVERVIEW DESCRIPTION
INCREASE PRODUCTIVITY
ELIMINATE TYPING: When used with IBM VoiceType Dictation, this
highly accurate vocabulary actually analyzes your spoken words and
enters the words into your computer within seconds. Go ahead --
close your eyes, put your hands behind your head, lean back in your
chair -- and say hello to VoiceType Dictation.
USE PROVEN IBM TECHNOLOGY: VoiceType Dictation is IBM technology
based on more than two decades of IBM experience, previously
available in the award-winning IBM Personal Dictation System. By
making speech recognition available to millions of PC users,
VoiceType represents the beginning of a major change in the way you
work with your computer.
WORK THE WAY YOU THINK
MAINTAIN YOUR TRAIN OF THOUGHT: With VoiceType Dictation, there is
no need to stop and make corrections along the way; you can do your
editing after you complete your thoughts, rather than in the middle
of your thought. VoiceType can even talk back to you and replay what
you said, so you never have to rely on memory to get the details
right.
CREATE TEXT WHILE BUSY: If your work requires you to use your hands
and eyes and simultaneously write reports, VoiceType Dictation can
improve your productivity. For example, lawyers can review cases and
dictate their findings at the same time.
LET VOICETYPE DICTATION WORK FOR YOU
Since everyone's pronunciation is a little different, VoiceType
Dictation takes you through an enrollment process to more accurately
learn your voice. The process also helps you learn the "discrete"
speech patterns recognized by VoiceType Dictation, where you leave a
short, clear space between words. This results in very high accuracy
and instant recognition. There is no need to re-enroll to use the
VoiceType vocabularies, since VoiceType Dictation already recognizes
you.
VoiceType Dictation temporarily stores your spoken words. You
can listen to the spoken words and correct dictated text. When you
use this feature of the program, a loudspeaker is required. Because
the spoken word file can be quite large, the spoken word acoustic
file is erased once dictation is corrected and stored as coded text.
The coded text file is much smaller than the spoken acoustic file and
uses far less disk storage.
To use your existing OS/2 or Windows applications with
DATA BASE : ALET PAGE: 3
VoiceType Dictation and the optional VoiceType Vocabularies for
Dictation, simply issue commands or move dictated text to your
programs. For a list of supported applications, refer to Software
Announcements 294-700 (VoiceType Dictation for OS/2) and 294-702
(VoiceType Dictation for Windows), dated November 8, 1994.
PRODUCT POSITIONING

VoiceType Vocabularies for Dictation include vocabularies for
specific desciplines -- journalism, emergency medicine, radiology,
