Sometimes, there’s no dictation to play back. For example, you can’t play
back text that wasn’t entered by voice, such as words you typed or pasted into your
document. You also can’t play back dictation after closing a document. If dictation is not
available, the Play Back button is dimmed (grayed out). When playback is not available,
you may find text-to-speech useful for checking your work. See “Using text-to-speech”
on page 85.
Playing back dictation in a document
To help you check your work for mistakes, you can play back a line, a
paragraph, a selection, or the whole document. After playback starts, you
can stop it as soon as you notice a mistake and automatically open the
Correction dialog box.
