Hi!



I have to transcribe a text in realtime, listening to a person who talks.

While writing I want to add at the beginning of each line a time code similar to that [HH:MM:SS:FF], so a text example could be:

[00:15:30:00] The Solar System formed 4.6 billion years ago from the gravitational collapse of a giant interstellar molecular cloud.
[00:15:45:22] The vast majority of the system's mass is in the Sun,
[00:15:53:12] with most of the remaining mass contained in Jupiter.

All I have to to is to click "start" on an invisible Timer starting from "00:00:00:00", and then when I press for example "Enter", at the same time I go to the next line and add automatically the correct TimeCode, until I press Stop to the invisible Timer.

In this way I have not only the transcription of the event, but I can create also subtitles for the recorded audio/video media of the event.

Does is it possible to do in Word?

There are on the market softwares which do that, but... they don't allow any change on Font size/type, 'cause they are intended only for transcription.

Instead I want to use a macro to switch between a Font type/size to another while typing in correspondence to the person who's talking.

This allows also deaf people not only to read in realtime what I'm typing, but also to understand that another person is talking.

Thank you in advance for any idea.

Daniele.
