Dual Writer currently supports only Microsoft Windows and US English for its speech recognition features. To use dictation and voice recognition in Dual Writer, your system language must be set to US English.

If your Windows system does not have US English installed, you can add the US English Language Pack. Once installed, you can then configure your system to US English and use dictation with Dual Writer.
