I am having issues with dictation working at all, but when it works, it will only give me the words for numbers, not the numbers themselves. Is there a way to let it know I want the numbers?
MacBook Pro (15-inch Early 2011), Mac OS X (10.7.4)
Dictation seems to spell out words smaller than 10. So if you want numerals for anything zero through nine (I am dictating this, by the way) say the word "numeral" first. This is consistent with the grammatical rule that says you should spell out single-digit numbers. You do get used to it.

I have the opposite problem. I can't get it to write out the words for numbers.
oy. so clunky. ok. i wish the darn thing were trainable...
How do I get dictation to type numbers?
