Will Dragon transcribe my sermon mp3's into OpenOffice text documents?
1244239
Yes and no. When using Dragon the speaker must speak in a way that will allow the Dragon software to accurately copy the dialogue. When preaching a sermon you do not say "period" "comma" "next paragraph" "exclamation" and such. Therefore, even though your words will be copied to text it may take you longer to edit your document then to just transcribe it. If you use Greek and Hebrew words they will probably not transcribe unless you teach your software these words first. Plus when you speak into Dragon it must be steady and clear. Usually preaching is not that way unless talk like Alexander Scourby reads. This of course is up to you. Of course you could just read the Bible aloud and your text would already be in print.

A more recent version of OpenOffice might work better. Not sure whether ASUS's repositories offer a more up to date version, though. While OO does a good job dealing with word and powerpoint files in general, compatibility won't be 100%. The word and powerpoint formats are proprietary and closed, OO's ability to read/write those formats is based on guess and reverse engineering. That said, you could try the following workaround: upload the document to docs.google.com (apply for a google account if you don't have one yet) and work the forms online. You can download them back to your computer when finished. Another alternative is to use a "windows emulator" such as Crossover to run MS office under Linux.

I believe if you transfer your writings to word, it will print. However I have been so disgusted with this program that I don't use it. Good luck my friend

MS office files (word, powerpoint, excel) work great with Hancom Office (preloaded on the tablet). yes the tablet supports mp3/mp4 audio.

I'm not sure, Robin. If you want to use it to transcribe something you need to use the Express Scribe application that comes in this package. I don't think that you will have the options to use the foot pedal and manipulate stop-and-go while you are listening to an MP3 file in Media Player. Of course, you can try. :)

I have not tried this myself, but I see instructions for doing this on the web here: http://www.kinworm.com/2011/01/create-your-own-kindle-ebook-using-open_30.html I searched for "openoffice kindle table of contents"

The files are not in the mp3 format that the device likes. I remember having to run all of the songs through 3 different mp3 converters before finding one that it liked. I searched through my folders to see which one I used but couldn't find it. It was a free converter I downloaded from the internet. The good news is once the files are converted and show on the system, your eclipse will be a very enjoyable device. I love mine! But it did take 3 days to get it up and running.

I've only had to do this once...and it worked just fine. It will of course depend on your program the document is formatted in. But, we simply love this machine. The company we bought it from has always been happy to help me with any problems I encountered while learning to use it.

It is possible to make an mp3 disk and play the audio ebooks on this player

Program is Dragon's Naturally Speaking. Once you perform the setup of reading a provided dialogue, the program "learns" you voice and can then transcribe your voice recordings to an editable text file. I read through my transcriptions and then edit to ensure proper punctuation. Still quicker than typing it all.

I know it would upload them to your computer. Not sure if they are copy righted if thy will let you copy.

Call ABBY on this one - FR works with word and dff files. No OCR program is perfect but FR does do a great job.

I would say yes. I take it to meetings and record them then type up the minutes. I transfer the file from the recorder to the computer and the sound is very clear with little background noise.

The recording is done by a digital voice recorder, which is not sold with this unit. Purchasing AltoEdge Transcription will buy you a foot pedal, a pair of very good quality headsets and the software (Express Scribe) to allow you to transcribe any MP3/WAV file. Recording your voice file in MP3 format is done with a completely different item. My boss who is a lawyer uses a Philips Voice Tracer. Each digital voice recorder has its own capacity as to how long of a voice file/message it can record.

Yes. Several Android apps are available to allow you to create documents. For an MS Office-like application for creating the full range of document types, I use Kingsoft Office for Android. The downside to the tablet is the virtual keyboard. I found that data entry through the on screen keyboard is less efficient than when using a "real" keyboard. You may consider a Bluetooth keyboard if you plan to do a lot of document creation on the Iconia 110.

Yes, using the free QuickOffice app. There is a pro version also available.
