The system integration hooked huge!
Subsystem integration I understand that DNS should work together with other programs without any problems. That it does not! And that, owbohl the product but actually should be mature as Issue 13:
In the following programs one can not dictate with DNA directly into the open document or input window, so that each time only open the Dictation and one is gewzungen to dictate into it:
All Office programs the company SoftMaker.
Thunderbird (Mozilla e-mail client)
Filling in form fields in PDF forms that have been opened with Acrobat Reader.
Notepad ++ (a universal text editor)
All programs mentioned four meet the criterion of DNS that the direct dictation into an open document or input window at all those programs would be possible under Windows with Ctrl. V and Ctrl. C allow the insertion and copying text.
Something about this is that it has worked with LibreOffice 4:13 properly - to dictate directly into the document.
Now I have two programs that are written in Java. Here is first started, a Java engine for Windows at startup, so to speak, a small operating system between Windows and the program. Only after the actual program starts, which then just under JAVA runs where Java is again running Windwos.
One program is a CRM (Custom Relation Marketing) system ADITO and is meinCRM. It is available free on the Internet. The second program is called Epicurus and is a PVS (practice management software) for psychotherapists and doctors. Here is a demo version is available.
Both programs support Ctrl C and Ctrl V. I can at any time copy text from Windows applications out and paste them into the appropriate input fields or documents. Likewise, I can take them out of there texts with Ctrl C or Ctrl X and paste it into Windows programs. So working with DNS least on the Dictation should be possible.
DNS works funnily Epicurus, although this is still a medical software. To dictate EPIKUR with DNS, however, always open the Dictation of DNS. OK, I can live with.
But just the CRM system can not be used with DNS !!! I create a new task and will dictate text as a note / task description. This will open the Dictation of DNS, but the first few syllables of the dictation land still in the initial entry window of the CRM system and not in the Dictation Box.
But what is worse: The Eingabfenster of CRM and the Dictation of DNS blocking each other and everything is stuck! Even the Dictation can not be closed! Obviously claim both windows to be in the foreground and to be active.
I was this blockade been just so cancel that I shoot the CRM system with the Windows Task Manager. However, such a process might endanger the database of the CRM system.

For OCR performance:
At least in this respect shines the product! The detection rate was very high right from the start! If I had the supplied headset simply connected to the laptop, the built-in sound chip would have produced a disastrous audio quality. One has to just listen once the garbage that comes out when you created via the built-in sound chip and a micro with a recording program such as Audacity No23 recorder or a recording!
But because I already knew that (it is a problem of all laptops up to 600 Euro or the combination plus Realtek onboard sound driver), I had used the USB Micro.
I was surprised about the fact that DNA had not even immediately with unusual psychological jargon as "Schema Therapy" and similar words, trouble! Everything was right the first time recognized and correctly written!

One more thing to licensing:
That's just not clear! Says on the box: Just on a personal computer and a user / user profile. In the license terms that are shown on the window viewing, it is, if the user is the same, DNS can also be installed on up to two computers. The whole thing is extremely inconsistent and intransparent.
I'm curious what happens if I install DNS on my big PC with the same license number! The statement under "Amazon customers ask" that one can use the same license on several occasions, is certainly wrong!

Supplement for licensing:
I have DNS now installed on my PC and the same user data entered when registering online. Nuance has accepted that and the installation is properly registered.

Addendum to install:
The installation on the PC went adventurous because two ultra-modern, brand new LG-DVD drives on that PC, the DVD can not read properly. The drives made their constant attempts pretty noise, but were unsuccessful.
Even an older external LG-DVD drive had the same problem.
In retrospect, I wonder then why this certainly less powerful DVD drive of the laptop was able to read the DVD perfectly!
I then copied using the notebook, the Nuance DVD to another DVD. The then turned on his PC the same problems! So the problem is obviously the fact that there are files on the disc that can not be read by some drives.
Then I have the complete Nuance DVD copied on a stick and from there the installation ran on the PC super fast (about 5 minutes), as opposed to installing from a DVD on my notebook.
My recommendation therefore to all those who have also DVD problems: Look for a PC on which the DVD can be read and copy the entire contents to normal by Explorer on a USB stick.

. One more thing concerning my installation on the PC:
The PC also runs on Windows 7-64bit with an Intel i7 processor and 16GB RAM. The i7 processor has 4 cores and can process about hyperthreading 8 threads simultaneously. These skills are not properly recognized by DNS. It appears again after restarting DNS error message:
"" "Your computer has a single-core processor. You have opened a user profile that was created on a computer with multi-core processor. NaturallySpeaking work on this machine. However, they will notice changes in performance and accuracy." ""
I read to optimize speech recognition a sample text and start the detection optimization, then I can follow in the Windows Task Manager, how DNS works well in parallel on all four cores. The reporting of DNS is therefore incomprehensible to me. But it has the consequence that the recognition is not the BestMatch V, but the less powerful BestMatch is used IV.
I find that annoying. Whether it affects noticeably, I can not say at present.
