I copied this from www.komando.com. Has anyone ever heard of or used this screen reading software? "Convert text to speechÂ
We've all become so accustomed to using the computer to communicate. And we use the Web regularly to find important information. But what about those with impaired vision? They often have a difficult time using computers. Some are unable to use a computer at all, at least without specialized software. Text-to-speech software can be expensive. But, if you're on a budget, you don't need to pay for screen readers. DSpeech is a free program that will read text from documents and Web pages. It may not be as advanced as some programs. But, I think it does a great job of converting text to speech. You can save the output to an audio file if you want. You can even read text from PDF files with the special plug-in. If you have difficulty reading a computer screen, give this program a try! Cost: Free www.dimio.altervista.org. Isn't it amazing how there is just enough news each day to fill the newspapers?
