Text to Speech PDF Reader Reviews

by Tnmedicbeachbod

I downloaded TexttoSpeechPDFReader to read my text book for school, but since the pages are scanned into PDF format TexttoSpeechPDFReader can do nothing for me. Very disappointing.

In the middle of reading i cant control anything. Its like the controls are there to be able to skip forward and pause etc but the functionality doesnt actually work making this kind of useless

by Academic2013

Articulation was poor and it skipped pages without the ability rewind to that page. And to confirm my dissapointment, the nicknames of "dissapointed" and "very disappointed" were taken.

The voice is robotic, which is annoying and extremely difficult to understand, especially when it starts spelling names and uncommon words. I'm glad I didn't have to pay for TexttoSpeechPDFReader!

I have a lot of required readings for my coursework so being able to upload them here and have it read to me on my commute to work everyday was beneficial. Of course there were flaws because there is a paid version of it as well. I thought though that this was version was free. In between pausing and starting readings or jumping past tables and charts I would get the pop up to upgrade. Now it won’t play at all and just beeps at me when I press the play button. Almost as if this was a trial only and you have to upgrade to continue to use it. The information that I saw was not clear that was the case otherwise I never would have downloaded it. I do not need all the bells and whistles included in the upgrade. I just need it to read the text that is all!

I thought it was a one time fee of $10 dollars as mention in someones review, I don't want to be paying for a on going subscription base.

To the developers, how do I get it to filter un printable characters that are part of the PDF?

If you have ADHD, this will be wonderful for you though expensive. I found that the premium voices did not work for some reason after I enabled all permissions, so something was odd about that when they started suddenly working after my free trial ended...a bit suspicious. But the MAJOR issue is the pdf will not scoll down all the time. It freezes, this is not helpful at all if I cannot scroll it myself even if the program is scrolling the document.

Much better than speechify! It does not make nearly as many mistakes, but it still needs some work. Waatch the screen because it might skip whole paragraphs!

How do I tell TexttoSpeechPDFReader not to break up a word ?
For example, instead of saying “definitions”, TexttoSpeechPDFReader speaks “DE” and skips over the rest of the word! Very annoying. How can this be fixed?

by Amazing Aza

I like TexttoSpeechPDFReader. The only problem I'm having is that a couple of times it would move through the document without hearing anything. I had to unload and reload TexttoSpeechPDFReader to fix that.

Also it is not clear how to choose a specific plae you want to read from and then go to that place.

it is a decent PDF reader. It has severall voices, you can control the speed of reading, but it does crash every once in a while

by RicardoGarciaAtMiami

During the second usage of TexttoSpeechPDFReader ., the program was skipping words. Also, either I cannot change the readers voice, or the task is far too complex.

by Nintendo Ex-fan

I use TexttoSpeechPDFReader every day for my grad school readings. It's really helpful to follow along and being able to pause and play whenver is great! The developer is also very responsive to suggestions (including adding a Control F feature when I requested), and overall highly recommend TexttoSpeechPDFReader.

by Belgiandean

I use the free version only. Is it perfect? No. It sometimes makes mistakes. But is it a great tool to listen to a scholarly article or work report during a long walk? Yes. It is really amazing how well it works.

by Panamausacuba

I like the voice and the control but there are some glitches- it sometimes will read a recognize a sentence as if it is one big work and will either read out the sentence letter by letter work will say the sentence really fast. otherwise it like it and use it often

Great Text to Speech App

This is good if your pdf is not a photo. Does not work on photos in pdf.

TexttoSpeechPDFReader seems to be better than speechify when uploading PDFs.

by Miss Coco Diva
