Appendix A: Fluency Voice commands
The table below lists the voice commands available in FFI Reporting. A checkmark in the Supported without Pausing column indicates that the command can be used fluidly, meaning a pause in dictation is not required immediately before or after the command is spoken. Commands that are not supported without pausing require a brief pause in dictation before and after the command is spoken.
