> AND NOW FOR TODAY'S TIP... Convert text to speech
>
> Q. I am looking for a program that allows me to scan a paper into
> the computer, then listen to it read back via audio. Does such a
> thing exist?
>
> A. It certainly does exist. As a matter of fact, there are many
> programs that will do this. Here are three good ones:
>
> --2nd Speech Center, v.1.50. This program not only translates text to
> speech, it does it in 11 languages! It costs $40. A free 30-day trial
> version is available. Get more information at:
>
http://www.2ndspeechcenter.com/index.html
>

> --Natural Voice Reader. The Standard version has the perfect price-
> free! Two other versions, Professional and Enterprise, cost $40 and
> $70, respectively. Both offer clearer voices than that of Standard,
> according to the company. They can also convert text files to sound
> files, such as MP3s. More information is available at:
>
http://www.naturalreaders.com/
>

> --SpeakText. This program is $30 with standard voices, and $65 with
> AT&T Natural Voices. It can convert text files to MP3s. You get a free
> 31-day trial, after which you must pay for the program. It is available
> at:
http://www.speaktext.com/
>

> These programs can read documents made in various applications. You'll
> probably find that they're all pretty happy with Microsoft Word. It's
> the biggest word processing program out there.
>
> When you scan the documents, a picture will be created. To use the
> text-to-sound software, you will probably need to convert the scans
> to text. Most scanners include such optical character recognition
> software. It usually outputs the data to a word processor, such
> as Word.
>
> And speaking of scanners and documents... One question that I get asked
> time and time is, "Is there a way that I can scan in a form and use my
> computer to fill it in?" You'll find the answer to this question here
> on my Web site:
http://www.komando.com/tips_show.asp?showID=6936
>

> Thanks for writing! And don't forget that you can listen to me this
> weekend on hundreds of radio stations. Find my three-hour national
> radio show near you here:

> See you on the radio this weekend where you're bound to learn
> a few things that you won't find in our newsletters.
