Morning all

 

Sorry for the cross post.  Just want to get the most coverage.

 

I installed the free version of WE on a Win 7/Office 2010 machine yesterday,
and found the Microsoft voice the most pleasant free one by far.  In fact,
I'd say it is the most pleasant English UK synthesised voice I've heard.
However, there is one small bug in it.  It doesn't pronounce the letter n at
the end of many words, particularly but not only with proper nouns.  For
example, it would say Sharo instead of Sharon.  Quite odd really.  I've got
all regions set to UK and can't think of anything else I can do.  Any help
very much appreciated.

 

Cheers

 

Barry
