DRAGON NATURALLYSPEAKING 11 HOME
DATASHEET
STOP TYPING, START TALKING
Just say words and watch them appear on the computer screen -- three times faster 
than typing -- with up to 99% accuracy right out of the box. Dragon can learn the 
words you say every day, including acronyms and proper names. It even gets to 
know you better over time for increased recognition accuracy. 
SPEAK AND THE PC OBEYS
Dragon eliminates the need to navigate menu options or type in keywords so users 
get more done faster. Just tell Dragon what to do, and it does it. Control applications 
or edit and format text using simple voice commands like “Open Microsoft Word,”  
“Show my photos,” “Bold that,” or “Center the row.”  
MULTITASK LIKE NEVER BEFORE
Dragon Voice Shortcuts
 make it faster and easier than ever to create email or 
search the Web or desktop for specific information or resources. 
• Send an email to multiple friends by saying, “Send email to Jon Smith and Raphael 
Sanchez.” Dragon automatically opens Microsoft
®
 Outlook
®
, creates a new email, 
and enters the correct email addresses for you.
• Say commands like “Search the Web for low-fat lasagna recipe” or “Search maps 
for Union College in Schenectady, New York,” and Dragon returns the results.
TRANSFORM IDEAS INTO TEXT AT THE SPEED 
OF THOUGHT
With Dragon, typing, spelling, or fear of the blank page won’t slow you down. 
Dragon keeps up with your brain, instantly transforming ideas into text -- with no 
spelling mistakes! Just say what you mean instead of struggling with the keyboard or 
worrying about spelling. Now you can focus more on the content of your writing and 
less on the mechanics of typing.

Interact with a PC -- Just By Talking
!
Dragon

NaturallySpeaking

11 Home provides 
a whole new way 
to interact with 
a PC -- using 
speech instead of 
a keyboard and 
mouse. Just say 
words and they appear on the computer 
screen -- three times faster than typing 
-- with no typos! Tell your PC what to do 
and it obeys your commands. Dragon 
understands what users say and how they 
say it. Use your voice to:
• Dictate and format documents 
• Surf and search the Web
• Send email and instant messages to  
family, friends, and colleagues 
• Update Facebook, MySpace, or Twitter
• … and so much more!
Dragon 11 Home provides everything you 
need to get started, including a high-
quality headset. There’s no faster, easier, 
or more enjoyable way to get things done 
on a PC for home, school, or leisure 
activities. Once you discover the Dragon 
difference, you’ll wonder how you ever 
managed without it!
