Article Summary

Built-in substitutions are commands which are "built in" to the dictation server. They appear as substitutions in a dictation transcript on the Detail Review & Correct page, but are not listed on the Substitutions page for an organization or account in nVoq.Administrator.

 

Built-in substitutions include:

  • Caps...capitalize first letter of one word
  • Caps On / Caps Off...capitalize first letter of all words
  • All Caps...capitalize all letters of one word
  • All Caps On / All Caps Off...capitalize all letters of all words
  • Lowercase or Overwrite...start the first word of the dictation with a lowercase letter
  • Number Next / Next Number...create an automatic numbered list
  • Letter Next / Next Letter...create an automatic lettered list

To see how these commands are used in a sentence, see Formatting Commands.


Some formatting commands are NOT built-in substitutions but are instead accomplished using inverse text normalization (ITN).
These include:

  • New Line / Next Line
  • New Paragraph / Next Paragraph / Paragraph
  • Capital A / Letter A
  • Numeral 1 Period / One Period
  • Open Quote / Quote
  • Close Quote / Unquote
