Formatting question for DQS7.1 - MT
Posted: Sep 17, 2012
Just starting DQS7.1 today and wondering about spacing between paragraphs. In ASR, when the dictator says next paragraph, it goes to the next line. Is this correct, or do I need to insert a hard return to make a like between the paragraphs? Anybody know? Don't want to mess up the formatting.
I believe that's what happens to "paragraphs" anyway - Trampled underfoot

Even when we type with a blank line between paragraphs, the program jams everything back together. No point in trying to make a decent-looking report; it turns out a ridiculous, hard-to-read product in the end anyway.
I believe it depends on client preferrences - Look in Docqmanage

Experiment on a report. Remember the job number and go to Docqmanage when you are done typing it. Search for the job and select Final report in the drop-down box. This is what the final report looks like to the client. Contrary to what some think, it does not always run everything in one paragraph anyway. It depends on what the client specifies for formatting. One of the clients I type for actually prints out the reports and faxes them with hand-written corrections to my CCM and she then passes that report to the offender, and they look exactly like they do when checking on the Final copy in DQM.
I paragraph manually - Here is why
[ In Reply To ..]
So that I can easier proof my work before I send it, and so that in the "system" for samples it is actually helpful to someone and not squished together. Nothing worse than looking up a sample and it's one big long paragraph. SO, I paragraph whether they dictate it or not.
I do not believe that my inserting the actual paragraph messes up the back-end formatting.

Anyone Having This Problem With DQS7? May 20, 2012I have a problem quite often, both in ASR when correcting or straight typing, where for some reason, the text from one line will drop to the next line when it clearly hasn't gotten to the end of the line I'm typing on...leaving only 1/2 line of text. This happens quite a bit. Anyone else having this happening? ...
OMG - DQS7 Training Jun 24, 2012Our region is scheduled to start DQS7 in a couple weeks, and we were required to watch the training video - way ahead of our start time.
I don't think I'll be able to do this!! They talk about keystrokes I've never heard of, the fonts in the demo were so small I could barely read anything, They talked about pushpins I never did find!
Is this as awful as it looks? Getting nervous.

Help With Formatting Paragraph In VR Dec 22, 2011Okay I work in Dictaphone VR. The latest version. I have Word 2007. In VR, the physical exam and its subheadings are all double spaced. Anyway to highlight the paragraph and make it single spaced? I usually just use arrows and delete about 7 times a row to tidy it up, but I was hoping I could highlight and do a few keystrokes and be done.
Thank you in advance for your help!

Formatting Abruptly Changed Feb 03, 2010There probably have been answers to my question out here before, but does anyone know what causes the formatting in an EditScript document of which I am either editing or transcribing? It tabs, bolds, changes font sizes, and messes up the spacing between lines.....things I did not manually do myself. Is there something I should be changing on my RTF? Or is it something else? Seems like I may have seen something about that, but I can't find it in my manual (which doesn ...
Diagnosis Formatting Issue May 24, 2010I am now totally confused. I've always been told the rule of thumb is that if there IS no #2, then there is no #1 to create a list. It should simply be Diagnosis: yada

BOS3 Formatting Question Jan 07, 2012I'm an experienced MT, not a newbie straight out of school. If this belongs on the "word" board, then I apologize in advance (I wasn't sure where to post it).
I am testing for a company that uses BOS3 (which I despise) and that is counted in the grading. In the physical exam section, the dictator gave a few headings (which of course I inserted) but not all. According to BOS3, inserting undictated headings is optional. Some sections begin as sentences (e.g., "He ...
