When I use the automator it will not save, remind me how to set it up for text to audio.

Tghe only thing that I would add is that when you are in the file you want converted, add two left-brackets rate and a rate number and then two right-brackets.

That will make say speak the file much faster than you originally thought.

You can do this in automator quite easily. You need to have the text file opened up in text edit. You make a workflow with these actions. Get text from text edit document, text to audio file, and import files in to itunes. This should do what you want.

Hi Everyone
Is there a program to convert a text file to a spoken audio file? I'd like to make iPod audiobooks out of my book collection, which I currently have as straight text files. Is there a program that serves this purpose? I know I can use say in a terminal window, but that converts to AIFF which takes up a great deal of disk space.

Thanks
