If you are looking for a free text-to-speech program, you might want to give Speakonia 1.3.5 a try. Yes, it's name is Speakonia and it is not a name of some obscure country.
What's good about this program is that you can choose from among 20 pre-loaded voices, however, all of them have some sort of not-so-human intonation. What would you expect?
You can also download a text as wav file so you can listen to it even on your portable audio player. But in order for it to work on your mp3 player
, you need to convert the file to mp3 format. The program does not do this so you have to do this yourself. Fortunately, there are several free converters available on the internet.
