Dictionary Preferences

The Preferences window is displayed via the Narrator > Preferences... menu item. This is the Dictionary page. It allows you to provide substitute words to adjust the pronunciation of speech. Useful for names or words that the speech synthesizer can't quite figure out.

Replace
Enter a word to look for. Case is not significant.
With
Enter a word or phrase to use instead when speaking. The text in the document won't change; it's only used when playing the speech.
Add
Click the plus button to add a new substitution.
Delete
Click the minus button to delete the selected line.
Play
Click the play triangle button to listen to the original and substitute words, to confirm that the pronunciation is acceptable.
Restore Defaults
Click this button to change the preferences on this page back to the factory-set values. Preferences on other pages are not affected. A confirmation sheet is presented, unless it was disabled.
