I have been using Dragon Naturally Speaking version 9.5, which was the last low-cost version to work with AC. After this version it was necessary to purchase the Medical version, which is vastly more expensive, to dictate directly into AC. I have been considering buying the DNS 12 Premium. If anyone on the forum has been using the later versions of DNS I would like to know if it is possible to dictate to the Dragonpad or Word and then copy and paste to AC?
