If you like the compact version, you can download a better quality version of 
the voice if you wish.

Re: Microsoft Edge on the Mac

2020-06-28 Thread Leo Bado

Hi Karen,

Sadly, the last time I tried out edge chromium on my Mac, these neural 
voices didn’t show up in the list to pick a voice when reading aloud. 
So, I am assuming they are not available yet for mac users. Personally, 
in my windows PC I always read articles on the NY times using the male 
American voice, which I really like.


As for the matter of one voice for task or program, I’m totally on board 
with your opinion. However, in this particular case, I believe that the 
feature of reading out loud in edge chromium is intended for users in 
general, and not exactly for visual impaired users.


Going further, I flatly believe that these human sounding voices are the 
future for the synthesizers as we know them. I’m not saying this is good 
or bad, but a foreseeable scenario in any case.


Best,
   Leo

Re: Microsoft Edge on the Mac

2020-06-27 Thread Leo Bado
well, yes, I tried it out some weeks ago and it worked just fine; 
however, I was expecting that the neural voices worked on the mac as 
well, but sadly, they don't... and for me this feature it's very 
important since I usually read articles on internet. I don't know if 
those voices are working on the latest release, but if someone gives it 
a try, let us know.



Best,
   Leo

It's a separate download, if you do a google search for microsoft edge it 
should be the first result.

MS Edge is not a part of Microsoft365.  It is a separate product/download.

Mike,
Is MS Edge part of the Office 365 suite, or a separate download?
