Posted: Apr 19, 2013
Hello. I'm a Stedman's Smartype user (Version 5.1.2600.5512) on a Windows XP with Word 2002. Wanting to get a new computer. Will my version of Smartype (Copyright 2004) work with Windows 8/Office 365? Thanks!
You should email Joe at SmarType and ask him - He replies quickly, too

Smartype? Nov 30, 2012Is anyone using Smartype? I used it back in the days of WP5.1. Most of the windows expanders I've used have "stuttered." Wondered if this one does, too.

SmarType Help, Please Mar 08, 2013I am just staring with SmarType and am having an issue whenever I use the word "he." SmarType kept replacing "he" with "her," so I deleted "her" from the auto-option. I thought that would fix the issue, but now it's replacing "he" with "heart," which is now the first auto-option word beginning with "h-e."
It's getting monotonous and time-consuming having to go back and correct this, as you can imagine.
Has anyone else encountered this with SmarType and how did you ...
Smartype Editscript Jul 27, 2010I have read to many articles on MT stars to get my smartype to work with Editscript. Last night it worked briefly but I would have the hit the spacebar and the type the first letter and then choose the expansion. Then it did not work again. There has to be a way for smartype to work with Editscript. There is enought computer "wizards" that this probably could be resolved. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I would hate to give up on this program number 1 i ...
Smartype And Inscribe Mar 18, 2011I have just accepted a position that uses Inscribe. I have been using Smartype for 4 years on the account I work on in MS Word. I've been searching for 2 days trying to find out if Smartype will work in Inscribe and have found next to nothing on the 2 programs together (lots of info for Inscribe alone and little on Smartype alone). The company said they do not know if Smartype will work with Inscribe. Can anyone help me with this? Thanks in advance for any ...
In The New Version Of Smartype... Jan 19, 2012I downloaded the new version of Smartype, and I need to figure out how you get something not to expand like say if you type pm and it expands it but you don't want it to. The older version you could type the word and press the shift key while pressing the spacebar and it would not expand, but it does not work that way on this version. I have no idea how to change the hotkey from the spacebar either. I have looked through the help pages and can't find it. ...
Anyone Else Doing The Smartype 30-day Trial? Jan 25, 2012
It does not look like my original Smartype. There is only a suggestion box and no Smartline like I am used to, but I have adjusted the suggestion box and it's better. I am getting used to it. I like how fast it is. The vocabulary seems bigger, especially the phrases.
I'm going to spend some time importing my old ST entries this afternoon.
Overall I really like it and will likely purchase it with the current special. At least I can stop worrying about w ...

Speedtype Vs Smartype Oct 16, 2013Since 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 ...
Word 2003/Smartype Jan 04, 2010Does anyone know if there is a fix for Word 2003 to correct the compatibility issue with Smartype? If I highlight a word and then type without deleting the text, Word will lock up. Sometimes if I type over highlighted text without pressing delete, I get three duplicate letters in a row, and then the cursor scrolls to the bottom of the screen and Word crashes. It is a real pain to have to hit delete all the time, and if anyone knows of a way to fix this, I'd appr ...

Stedman's Spellchecker Sep 05, 2012I am thinking of buying/downloading Stedman's Spellchecker but had a question and wondered if anyone here can help me out. They have Spellchecker Plus for $99.95 and also Spellchecker Plus for $39.95. It looks as though the latter might be an update, but the descriptions are basically the same.

Stedman's Question Mar 01, 2013I'm looking to purchase Stedman's Electronic Medical Spellchecker and came across the 2011 version, new in shrinkwrap, for an unbelievable price on Amazon. The description says:
Stedman's Medical/pharmaceutical Spellchecker 2011 Starter KIT Version 2.0 on Cd-rom for Windows (CD-ROM)
The phrase "Starter Kit" has me a bit confused though and even though I google'd and read the descriptions, I'm having trouble discerning if this some abbreviated version of Stedman ...

Smartype Smart Blocks & EXText Jan 04, 2010I work in Dictaphone /EXText. I am dependent on my Stedman's Smartype for 100s of 1000s of terms with which I am not familiar, and to which I have total access while in EXText. However, I am not able to pull Smartype Smart Blocks (which I have created while in Word but not in EXText) into a current document. In the past, I got around this problem at work by creating "instant macros," going into ctrl-s, cutting, pasting into current document and using as a g ...
Text Expander Smartype Compatibility Jan 09, 2011I love Smartype, but a real fear is that at some point I will have to upgrade from XP--and Smartype is not compatible with the new versions of Windows.

Importing Smartype To Instant Text Jun 06, 2011I have had the Smartype word expander for many years. It no longer is being made. I had to buy Instant text. Instant text says I can import the Smartype entries into it. I cannot understand how to do that with their instructions. I need a 1.2.3. type instruction. Their explanation is general and vague assuming that I am a computer whiz, which I am not. Can anyone help me? I have a new job and I need to work with Word Perfect. I don't even know if Instant Text is compatible with WP. Do ...
Good News! Smartype Is Back! Feb 18, 2012I'm so happy there is a new version of Smartype that has been released. It now works with newer versions of Word, i.e. Word 2007 and 2010 and works with other software including Outlook. It's even better than the original. I was using the old version of Smartype even though it had glitches when working with Word 2003. You can try it before you buy it, a definite plus. I highly recommend downloading this software. To me, it is a must for the medical transcriptionist to boost productivit ...

Stedman's Smart Type May 20, 2011wondering about how stable stedman's smarttype is for everyone else. I have used the program for years, but noticed recently odd things happening. Has anyone else had unexpected things happen with smartype and word 2007. What could I replace it with that would be its equal?
