Hi Everyone
I'm trying to work with Adobe reader and am having limited success.
I'm able to get it to read aloud to me no problem, as this seems to be
the only way you can actually read a PDF with it. My problem is, it's
completely ignoring my settings for speech rate, and speaking at the
slowest possible rate. All other settings are obeyed. I've tried both
setting it manually in Adob reader's preferences (uncheck use default
attributes and set it) and keeping use default attributes checked.
There's absolutely no change, and seriously it speaks so slow I cannot
listen to it. I don't even know any human that talks as slow as this
thing is speaking, let alone a computer. I've verified my settings in
system prefs under speech, and they're fine.
Anyone got any ideas what's going on? This is with Adobe Reader 9, I
just downloaded it.
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.
