Quentin: What do you mean by spoken text? I think the general problem is to find a tool which receives a text as input, and converts it to Wave/MP3, using a synthesizer. Please note that I am not meaning a sound recording utility which captures the voice of the synthesizer while it is speaking. I mean a direct text to wave/MP3, which can encode a , for example 20-minute Wave/MP3 file, out of a text using a synthesizer in a few seconds. DJ: am I paraphrasing your problem correctly?! BTW, I have found some such tools in internet. Unfortunately none of them are accessible by Jaws. Is here anybody who can direct us to such tools that are accessible by screen readers?

Depending on your needs, you may use DSpeech.
