Hi John,
I got the AT&T Natural voices as part of TextAloud (a text to speech
software package). I think they are very good. I installed them in Jaws
using the Windows sapi5x synthesizer. They work with this synthesizer
but there is a deterioration of quality (compared with the way they
sound with TextAloud). Apparently for use with Jaws the Flextalk
synthesizer is required. This is used in the Kurzweill 1000 but I have
not been able to get hold of it. To summarise my experience with AT&T
with Jaws; I use AT&T for reading books or other long text documents but
stick to Eloquence for getting around. My reason for doing so is that I
have Eloquence going at a fair pase to save time and this rate would
stop AT&T from sounding natural.
Hope this helps,
Ciao,
Ron.

Can anyone tell me something about this natural voices? Does it work
with
Jaws or is it a separate synthesizer that must run with another program?
Much thanks, in advance. John Fioravanti, Jr.
