type the letter “a” in your document. Or, you can say “Press Control s” to
press

CTRL

+

S (

the keyboard shortcut for saving a document).

You can say “Press,” “Press Key,” or “Type”—all three voice commands
work the same way.

“Scratch That” will not erase keystrokes dictated with the Press Key

commands. You must select the text by voice or mouse and delete it or say “Press
Delete.”

Pressing letters

You can press any letter on your keyboard by saying “Press” and then the
letter. When you’re pressing letters, you must say “Press” before each
one. For example, to enter “txt,” say “Press t,” “Press x,” “Press t,”
pausing between letters.

For similar-sounding letters (such as b, d, and v), you can say “Press b as
in Bill,”
“Press d as in David,” and so on (you can also say “Press b for
Bill,” “Press d for David,”
and so on) as you would if you were spelling
something over the phone. See the complete list below.

You can use any word in the International Communications Alphabet (page 223)

to “spell” the letter keys, for example, “Press alpha” or “Press bravo.”

You can also spell words using Spell mode. See “Modes” on page 80 for more

information.
