1. A computer-implemented method for simplifying the pasting of textual transcriptions from a transcription engine into an application, comprising:
- streaming from a workstation an audio file to a transcription engine;
receiving in real or near-real time a textual transcription file of the audio file from the transcription engine;
firstly loading the textual transcription file onto a clipboard automatically without invoking a word processing application; and
secondly pasting the textual transcription from the clipboard directly to an application at the workstation, wherein the textual transcription file is pasted to the application in real or near-real time.

11. A computer system configured to simplify the pasting of textual transcriptions from a transcription engine into an application by loading the textual transcription directly to a clipboard without launching a word processing application, comprising:
-
a processor; memory in electronic communication with the processor; the processor configure to; send an audio file to a transcription engine remote from the processor; receive a textual transcription file of the audio file from the transcription engine; load in a first instance the textual transcription file into the clipboard without invoking the word processing application; and paste the textual transcription file from the clipboard into an application. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)

19. A computer-implemented method for simplifying the pasting of textual transcriptions from a transcription engine into an application, comprising:
-
executing an application other than a document creation application at a workstation adapted to receive audio input; maintaining the application other than the document creation application in an active window of the workstation; creating an audio file at the workstation from the received audio input; transmitting the audio file to a transcription engine wherein the transcription engine converts the audio file to a textual file; receiving the textual file from the transcription engine at the workstation; automatically loading the textual file to a copy buffer of the workstation without invoking the document creation application; subsequently pasting the textual file to the application maintained in the active window. - View Dependent Claims (20)
