If that's true, then it renders Adobe reader unuseable for me. I cannot listen at that awful speed without getting a headache.

Subject: Adobe reader won't speed up


Hi Everyone
Does anyone know how to get Adobe reader to speak at a faster rate?
I've confirmed that my speech settings in system prefs are correct,
but no matter what I do in Adobe reader, even if I override the system
prefs defaults and set the speech rate to a higher value, it doesn't
seem to actually do anything. Pitch and volume work, but rate just
won't. Am I doing something wrong here?

   The major difference between a thing that might go wrong and a
thing that cannot possibly go wrong is that when a thing that cannot
possibly go wrong goes wrong it usually turns out to be impossible to
get at or repair.
