Transcribing Audio Using The Desktop Version of Word for Windows


A while ago I wrote about transcribing audio <https://theideaplace.net/transcribing-audio-with-word-online-and-a-screen-reader/>  using Word for the Web and a screen reader. Earlier this year Microsoft made the transcription functionality available for some versions of the desktop version of Word. This blog post <https://insider.microsoft365.com/en-us/blog/transcribe-comes-to-word-for-windows>  has more details.

The uploading, editing and adding to your document part of the transcription experience is the same as I wrote about earlier. With this functionality now available in desktop versions of Word, I took the opportunity to make a brief audio demo of how you use this feature with a screen reader and the desktop version of Word.

There is both an audio demonstration <http://theideaplace.net/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/WordDesktopTranscription.mp3>  and a transcript <http://theideaplace.net/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/transcript-demoInPlainText.txt>  of the same.
