Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Organization and Presentation	Organization and Presentation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Nuance Communications, Inc. (“Nuance”, “we”, or “the Company”) and our wholly-owned subsidiaries. We prepared these unaudited interim consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (the “U.S.” or the "United States") and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments that, in our opinion, are necessary to present fairly our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods indicated. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and classifications of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Although we believe the disclosures in these financial statements are adequate to make the information presented not misleading, certain information in the footnote disclosures of the financial statements has been condensed or omitted where it substantially duplicates information provided in our latest audited consolidated financial statements, in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC. Accordingly, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2014. The results of operations for the nine months ended June 30, 2015 and June 30, 2014, respectively, are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire fiscal year or any future period. We have evaluated subsequent events through the date of the issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements.
