Editscript 9.12 and SpeedType 10.01b

Hi All. I have an opportunity to purchase SpeedType and have been reading about it some. Currently I use just the expander or Autocorrect that comes with Word to make little handy helpful hints for words I use lots. Can anyone tell me the advantages of Speedtype versus what comes with Word, pros and cons, etc.. Thanks ...

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 ...

I just installed SpeedType & I am FRUSTRATED! Could someone pleeeeease give me the specific steps to copy a block of text that you have just typed into the SpeedType dictionary? I work for a company that promised 90% editing, 10% transcription, but so far it has been 100% transcription, and there are no templates for the big 4! And since we're not supposed to cut & paste anymore, I got SpeedType so I could make my own templates, ONLY I CAN'T MAKE IT WORK!!!&nb ...

Since the old Smartype does not support Windows 7 or 8, only XP, I bought the new (not Stedman's anymore) Smartype. It is not very good at all. I contacted Speedtype, which looked really great, similiar to the old Smartype (I can macro large blocks of text for OP reports) and spoke with the CEO!!! REALLY?? She was fabulous and told me there was a shortcut to get your old blocks of text into Speedtype without cutting and pasting. I have not tried the 15 day trial period yet ...

I just got a new computer, Windows 7 64-bit and my SmartType does not work. I need a new program and I was looking at Instant Text and SpeedType. Does anybody have those and which one is better???? Appreciate any help you can give me. Thanks!! Lori ...

I'm trying to decide on an expander and already eliminated IT as beyond my capabilities. I'm looking now at SH or ST. Can anyone explain to me what differences there are between these 2 programs? I'm flipping back and forth between the 2 websites and am I missing something or are they essentially the exact same program but one is less expensive? Also, can anyone tell me if either or both of these programs allow identical names for abbreviations or do they require dis ...

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 ...

Can anybody tell me how to check my line count in Editscript? ...

I am currently an Exact-Med student. They give each student Speedtype. I had been using it, but my husband updated our Soundcard and then it said that my license for Speedtype was no longer valid. So I had to purchased a new llicense for a "new computer" since by updating the sound card it changed settings on our hard disk. Then we went on vacation and turned our computer off for 2 weeks and when I restarted it, it says my license is not good anymore....don't know why, but apparentl ...

Does anyone know if there is any difference in EditScript MT 9 and EditScript MT 9.12? If there is, how can we update this? It seems that my new place of employments line counting is not the same as my old place of employment. New employer has EditScript 9, while my old work had EditScript 9.12, and my line count was much more at my previous employer. Now it seems I can put out tons of work and see not much for lines... Very frustrating. When questioning my employer now, they say t ...

Can someone please tell me how to add "-year-old" entry to SpeedType? New to this program. Thanks! ...

Hi All.... I was just hired by an MT company that uses EditScript. This is a brand new experience for me as my previous MT job did not use this platform. I've been studying the user manual and specs, but am nervous about starting tonight. I'll be starting out with 10 reports. I know it will be "SLOW GOING" especially tonight. I want to do a good job, but worry about being too slow at first. Any words of advice or encouragement out there??? I could use some ...

I am going to be going to ES VR. I have been working on Dictaphone Extext straight typing and a little VR. I did not find VR in Dictaphone to be good. I have done ES before, and I believe it is better. Considering the chump change we make to do VR, do you think you are paid enough to proof your work after you have edited the report, or do you do a once over and go on to the next one? I mean, really, with what we make, we really have to do a once over to make anythi ...

After 40 years on the job and getting tired of typing, when out of a job this last time (there have been so many times of late because of ...well most of you already know how goes it with our profession), I decided to just go for what seems to be taking over transcription anyway. Thanks to this board and all the talk about the different platforms, I took a job with a company that uses EditScript, and I am thrilled. In those 40 years, I have had to do a lot of proofreading as a super ...

I posted this on the company board but this might be a better place...I work at FocusInfomatics...QC..just started not that long ago. Many years of experience with editing, QA, MT, etc. I'm new to VR. I would love to hear what to expect for production as right now...it's not so good.

I recently upgraded to EditscriptMT 8 from verson 6 and now find I cannot look back at old records as I used to do and check for familiar phrases, medication lists or other information.

So you get a report where the text has been typed by a computer. Then you must edit it. My sources (a large regional hospital MT Dept) tells me that the computer generated text is only 50% accurate, a far cry from what the vendors will tell the dupes at the hospitals who are buying into this junk. ...
