Phrases

During Online-Speech Recognition in the Recorder Dictation Window, you can speed up your work by using "Phrases". These function as macros, and should be used for passages of text that are often repeated in identical form. Such phrases can be added to documents from the Phrase List in the Recorder command menu   . New phrases can be added, and defunct phrases deleted.  They are only saved locally on your system.

The first saved phrase will be saved as No. 1, the next as No. 2 and so on. If a phrase is deleted, the next phrase to be added will be given the number freed up.
