Presto Anywhere

Presto Anywhere lets you dictate findings directly into a dedicated field in your PowerScribe template. Presto automatically extracts those findings and merges them into your report — the same result as using the Findings panel, but without needing to open and close the panel.

This is useful when you prefer to stay entirely within the PowerScribe reporting window and quickly jump back and forth between other fields.

In PowerScribe 360, go to Tools → AutoText Editor.

Create a new AutoText and name it Findings (or any name you prefer). This AutoText will hold the fill-in field that Presto reads from. We recommend naming it something easy to invoke by voice command.

Click the Fill-in… button in the toolbar to insert a fill-in field into the AutoText.

In the Fill-in Field Definition dialog, set:

• Name: Presto Findings
• Type: Text

Click OK to insert the field.

Click Save AutoText to save. The AutoText now contains your Presto Findings field and is ready to use in any template.

Insert the Findings AutoText into your report template. Most users will insert this at the end of the report; however, you can insert the Findings AutoText field anywhere in your report, as long as it is not inside another field.

Open a report and dictate or type your findings directly into the Presto Findings field. You can enter them in any format — prose, keywords, or terse shorthand — just as you would in the Presto panel. No punctuation, capitalization, or other formatting is required.

When you’re ready, click the merge button in the Presto widget (or use your microphone shortcut or keyboard shortcut).

Presto extracts your findings from the Presto Findings field, routes them into the correct template fields, and generates an impression — exactly as if you had used the Presto panel.
