SH10 for Windows (PC Shorthand) - Stephanie

[ In Reply To ..]
This is a WONDERFUL PROGRAM, until your 30 days runs out and you have to buy it. Still trying to come up with the money. Seems like a lot of money to upgrade to a program that is many years old with no new upgrades, and you can only use it on one computer. I have two computers with different operating systems for different clients. Now I have to buy a "multi-user" agreement, not knowing for sure if the company is still in business!!

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 ...

Help! Shortcut Word Expander Won't Work Right With Editscript
Nov 07, 2012

Has anyone had any problems using the Shortcut for Windows word expander with the Editscript platform?  It's always worked fine in the past when I used to use Voicescribe.  It also works fine in everything else currently that I use.  When I expand a word it in Editscript, the expanded word moves back a couple spaces and cuts off the previous word I had typed.  It works fine in Word by itself.  I just don't get it.  If anybody can help, I'd greatly ap ...

Text Expander And SR
Aug 03, 2011

In school, we were given the opportunity to have a 4-month trial of Shorthand for Windows. I really enjoyed using this program and had considered purchasing an extended license for it when I become employed; however, I thought of the MT industry heading more towards SR/VR editing and wondered if having a text expander would be useful at all. Any inputs? I'm currently using Word's AutoCorrect as a substitute. ...
