Can SpeedType be used in EMDAT platform? - LindaH


Posted: Jul 31, 2014

I am thinking about taking a position using an EMDAT platform.  This is not a big company, just a nice woman who works from home and employs a number of transcriptionists.  I have never worked in a platform, so really have no clue what this entails.  My biggest concern is being able to use SpeedType, as I have thousands of entries and rely on it heavily to do my work.  The thought of using another word expander, building a dictionary, etc., does not thrill me.   The owner of the company thought there is a way to import my own word expander.  Or can it just be used without importing?

 

Thanks for your help.

 

 

I believe you can - SM - Diane

My PC Shorthand works with Inscribe - and I believe Speed Type is the same kind of program with the spf dictionaries.

EMDAT Inscribe Platform. Info Please
Mar 15, 2012

I just installed this on my computer.  Wow, I was dumfounded.  I have trained to learn Escription, DocQScribe, Pscribe and Chartnet.  I really don't think I am that stupid to learn a new platform, but this has to be the most complicated program I have ever seen.  I did not give up right away -- that is not in my nature.  But after struggling for about 2 hours, I finally gave up.  Honestly if they tried, I don't think the maker of this program could have ma ...


Any Companies That Use Emdat Inscribe Platform?
Feb 05, 2014

Hi...in spite of prior negative remarks about this platform, in my opinion it can't be easier. So simple and convenient. I think my job as an IC is going to be eliminated without warning and am doing a preliminary job search. Anyone know of any companies that are decent and use the Emdat Inscribe platform? I wonder, since Nuance owns Emdat....you don't suppose only Nuance can use the platform? ...

For example, I pull up the prior progress notes for Dr. **** because I am looking for some of the phrases he uses in the Physical Exam section or a particular phrase or a word, etc. Is there a search feature where I can type in “Physical Exam” and the program will search and stop on each of these instances from the prior report listing until I fin ...

SH10 And Speedtype 10

I have used   shorthand (various editions for years).  I had problems with it on my new computer and switched over to Speedtype 10.  I had trouble getting SP10 to accept the files I switched from Shorthand.  Now, shorthand is acting like a child.  When I close it out, I get a message that says ST10 .exe not functioning and it freezes my computer.  The same goes for Speedtype.  Has anyone else had this problem?  It started on both all of a sudden and t ...
