# Proofing & Prep General Settings

## This article will show you some handy settings you can enable to make your script prep and proofing workflow more specific and efficient.

You can access these settings from [https://studio.pozotron.com/profile/settings](https://studio.pozotron.com/profile/settings)

Or, by navigating to your dashboard by clicking your email in the top right corner, and choosing **My Dashboard**

**![](https://support.pozotron.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-May-04-2026-04-55-01-0323-PM.png?width=274&height=488&name=image-png-May-04-2026-04-55-01-0323-PM.png)**

From there, click on the **Settings**tab on the left-hand side

You'll be brought to this screen: 

![](https://support.pozotron.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-May-04-2026-04-57-25-2221-PM.png?width=670&height=314&name=image-png-May-04-2026-04-57-25-2221-PM.png)

Next, we’ll walk through what each of these settings does.

### Proofing Settings

#### 1. Default DAW marker format

![](https://support.pozotron.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-May-12-2026-08-15-05-4138-PM.png?width=670&height=89&name=image-png-May-12-2026-08-15-05-4138-PM.png)

Selecting a DAW here will automatically set it as the default when exporting markers.

#### 2. Online Pickup Packet

![](https://support.pozotron.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-May-12-2026-08-15-14-6077-PM.png?width=670&height=79&name=image-png-May-12-2026-08-15-14-6077-PM.png)

This option allows you to enable or disable the generation of online pickup packets in your projects.

If disabled, only offline pickup packets can be exported.

#### 3. Misread Format

![](https://support.pozotron.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-May-12-2026-08-15-25-6086-PM.png?width=670&height=82&name=image-png-May-12-2026-08-15-25-6086-PM.png)

This setting allows you to customize how Pozotron displays misreads.

By default, Pozotron displays misread annotations like this:

![](https://support.pozotron.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Jan-18-2024-05-57-08-0530-PM.png?width=328&height=187&name=image-png-Jan-18-2024-05-57-08-0530-PM.png)

This setting allows you to change the format to S/B (Should Be) instead of using the arrow symbol.

![](https://support.pozotron.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Jan-18-2024-05-56-33-8740-PM.png?width=330&height=190&name=image-png-Jan-18-2024-05-56-33-8740-PM.png)

#### 4. Speed Mode Offset Context

![](https://support.pozotron.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-May-12-2026-08-16-03-7325-PM.png?width=670&height=81&name=image-png-May-12-2026-08-16-03-7325-PM.png)

By default, when you click an annotation, Pozotron jumps to 2 seconds before the mistake to provide context.

This setting allows you to increase or decrease the offset context. 

#### 5. One Click Pickup Tag

![](https://support.pozotron.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-May-12-2026-08-16-32-6052-PM.png?width=670&height=306&name=image-png-May-12-2026-08-16-32-6052-PM.png)

This setting allows you to add an extra button to your annotations that automatically applies a selected tag to the pickup.

For example, you could choose **@editing,** and your annotations would have this button: 

![](https://support.pozotron.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Nov-22-2023-05-33-10-6875-PM.png?width=332&height=199&name=image-png-Nov-22-2023-05-33-10-6875-PM.png)

#### 6. Tag Noise and Pause Pickups with "@editing".

![](https://support.pozotron.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-May-12-2026-08-16-50-7654-PM.png?width=670&height=87&name=image-png-May-12-2026-08-16-50-7654-PM.png)

Enabling these checkboxes will automatically add the @editing tag to any pause or noise pickups.

#### 7. Prompt to confirm final (recordable) script.

![](https://support.pozotron.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-May-12-2026-08-17-18-8233-PM.png?width=670&height=40&name=image-png-May-12-2026-08-17-18-8233-PM.png)

When enabled, Pozotron will prompt you to confirm that the uploaded script is the final version the first time you upload audio:

![](https://support.pozotron.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Jan-22-2024-02-17-59-1461-PM.png?width=670&height=271&name=image-png-Jan-22-2024-02-17-59-1461-PM.png)

 

### Script Preparation Settings

#### 1. Pronunciation Dictionary

![](https://support.pozotron.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-May-12-2026-08-21-47-7343-PM.png?width=670&height=266&name=image-png-May-12-2026-08-21-47-7343-PM.png)

#### This setting allows you to choose a default pronunciation dictionary for all future projects.

#### 2. Ignored Research Words

This setting allows you to specify words you do not want to appear in your Pronunciation Guide suggestion list.

Adding a word here will prevent it from appearing in all future projects suggestions.

![](https://support.pozotron.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-May-12-2026-08-18-57-8987-PM.png?width=670&height=258&name=image-png-May-12-2026-08-18-57-8987-PM.png)

**TIP:** You can also add words to this list from your Pronunciation Guide!

Click the three-dot button next to Ignore

and select **Ignore all occurrences of the word**. 

#### ![](https://support.pozotron.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Jan-22-2024-02-10-39-9845-PM.png?width=670&height=325&name=image-png-Jan-22-2024-02-10-39-9845-PM.png)

#### 2. Disable automatic population of pronunciation data from online dictionaries

![](https://support.pozotron.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-May-12-2026-08-24-23-7178-PM.png?width=670&height=41&name=image-png-May-12-2026-08-24-23-7178-PM.png)

Enabling this setting prevents Pozotron from automatically populating research entries from online dictionaries when you click **Add To Research**.

This feature is useful for users who prefer to create a list of suggested words first and then perform more detailed manual research afterward.

3\. Disable automatic population of user-selected pronunciation data

![](https://support.pozotron.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-May-12-2026-08-26-51-2603-PM.png?width=670&height=39&name=image-png-May-12-2026-08-26-51-2603-PM.png)

This setting disables pronunciation sharing between projects.

When enabled, Pozotron will not automatically reuse pronunciation data you selected or researched in previous projects.

### Administrative Settings

![](https://support.pozotron.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-May-12-2026-08-37-19-7003-PM.png?width=1295&height=246&name=image-png-May-12-2026-08-37-19-7003-PM.png)

This option will prevent the dispaying of any collaborator emails in your project.
