Hi Mike,
I took a look at this and it looks interesting, especially since you
can set the words per minute. This was the major hang up for setting
up Automator actions to convert text to mp3 last year. Jane got this
information from the accessibility team; if you want to read a summary
in one of Darcy's later replies, here's his post from the archives:

(figured Automator out)
And here's the earlier post Jane sent with the forwarded response from
Apple's Accessibility team:
http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg24218.html
(Fwd: Adjusting Say Speech in Terminal)
This also points to the documents in the Apple Developer connection
for customizing and fine-turning speech.
My main question is about the resulting mp3 files. What bit rate
encoding do they use? The nice feature of this site is that they make
the conversion directly to mp3. Have you tried this your self, Mike?
Thanks.
Cheers,
Esther

Check out http://www.spokentext.net.
You can up load or past in text and have it recorded. Max up load

It will record PDF and others.
