TextAloud is a powerful text to speech application that integrates with various applications in Windows, converting written text to spoken audio. Using voice synthesis, it can provide clear and accurate speech in various languages and with various accents.

The installation is pretty straightforward, but you must pay attention when choosing the application integration options. By default, TextAloud offers to add text-to-speech toolbars to Internet Explorer, Microsoft Word and Outlook and install an extension for Firefox, Chrome and Edge. Windows Explorer integration is also possible, which means you can easily send a supported document to TextAloud.

Working with TextAloud is intuitive, thanks to the simple options, accessible controls and the user-friendly GUI. In fact, there are multiple toolbars available, which you can toggle on or off, depending on what you need.

The interface comprises a text editing area where you can place the text you want to have read out loud. There are controls for adjusting the speed, the pitch and the volume of the speech. By default, TextAloud starts reading the text from the beginning, but you can also instruct it to start speaking the current sentence or article.

Alternatively, it can start speaking from the position of your mouse cursor. If there are multiple articles in your list, then TextAloud can automatically continue to read the next after it is done with the current one. Additional speech control options allow you to jump to the next line, sentence or paragraph using simple key combinations. Also, there are options to insert pauses in the speech, change the voice, add bookmarks and more.

TextAloud features clipboard monitoring, which means it can automatically import text from your clipboard. Articles in TextAloud can be saved as a spoken audio file or merged together in a single text file. The application comes with a built-in file splitter and a batch file converter to help you convert multiple files at once.

It comes with its own dictionary, but you can also create new dictionaries with custom entries. The Pronunciation Dictionary Maintenance tool allows you to filter items and manage the content of your dictionaries. Moreover, the integrated spell checker makes sure your text is correctly written.

TextAloud can turn written text into speech, allowing you to easily have text pieces from webpages, documents, or emails read out loud. With proofreading and spell-checking tools, as well as options to save generated speeches as audio files, it provides a solid text-to-speech application fit for both beginners and advanced users.
