FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can I convert audio directly to a Word document?
Yes. Upload audio and export a DOCX file that opens in Microsoft Word and compatible editors. DOCX is available for all languages.
Is DOCX better than PDF for non-English transcripts?
Yes. DOCX supports Chinese, Japanese, Korean, accented characters, and other non-ASCII text. PDF export is limited to basic ASCII only.
Can I edit the transcript before exporting?
Yes. Review the transcript in VoiceScribe after transcription, then export DOCX, TXT, SRT, or VTT when the text looks correct.
Does this create a real Word file?
VoiceScribe exports DOCX files that open in Microsoft Word and other compatible editors.
Can I get plain text instead?
Yes. TXT export is available alongside DOCX from the same transcript.
Will the Word transcript stay in the same language as my audio?
Yes. Choose the recording’s spoken language or use auto-detect, and VoiceScribe will transcribe the speech in that language. DOCX and TXT exports support all available transcription languages.
What is the difference between audio to Word and audio to text?
Both workflows transcribe the same audio. Audio to Word emphasizes an editable DOCX document for Microsoft Word, while audio to text is useful when you want plain TXT or another transcript format.
Will speaker names appear in the document?
When speaker labels are enabled, the transcript indicates speaker changes in the exported text.
