Publisher's description

From Claro Software :

WordRead 2 with a RealSpeak Solo voice is a great tool that allows text on your PC's screen to be spoken back in a natural human-quality voice. It is simple to use, and there is no need to copy and paste text into a separate window. Proof read and 'listen to' Word documents, e-mails, web pages, spreadsheets, presentations and accessible PDF files. In Microsoft Word, click your mouse at any start point and press the WordRead Play button. It will read from that point, and highlight each sentence as it is being read. There are no limits to the amount of text WordRead will read. For web pages viewed with Internet Explorer, hover your mouse over the text you want to hear, and it will instantly speak back that text. Or, click the mouse anywhere on the web page, press WordRead's Play button, and it will speak from that point until you press Stop. You can convert any Word document, Internet Explorer web page (or any text copied to the clipboard) into an audio file.

Version: WordRead American Edition 2

"WORKS AS PROMISED, LIKED HOW IT WORKED ON THE WEB."

by sonnyfig99 on March 29, 2006

Pros: LIKED THE EASE OF OPERATION, EASY TO SET UP AND INSTALL.

Cons: I FEEL THE 75.00 PRICE TAG IS A BIT STEEP FOR WHAT YOU ARE GETTING. TO ME ITS MORE OF A NOVELTY AND FOR 75 BUCKS THERE ARE OTHER PROGRAMS I WOULD RATHER BUY.
