Dear All,
I just came across something v.interesting........
You can listen to any PDF FILES instead of reading with Adobe Reader 6 or 7 and the short cuts are :

Ctrl + Shift + B - to hear the entire Document
Ctrl + Shift + V - to hear the page
Ctrl + Shift + C - to resume
Ctrl + Shift + E - to stop

Open any PDF File and test.... unbelievable.
It will read for you the entire content!....................Dont believe....Just try Guys.......It really works.......and truly amazing!
Superb......

Hi Chaitali !
The facility in adobe is there and I have tried it for many documents. But the main drawback of the facility is that it can not read long sentences with ease. It is very mechanical and sound is monotonous. It cannot attend to punctuations like comma, semicolun, etc., Quote - unquote.
I have tried using it for "reading" :) ebooks but it does not work well.
Still canbe used to 'read' some short documents.
Thanks.

Do u know, u can also hear what ever is written in excel. It uses proper pronunciation.
It can also read long sentences and pauses for comma or a full stop.
Go to Tools>speech>show text to speech
try it out

Hi Liz !
On Adobe Toolbar, go to 'view', select option 'Read Out Aloud', select "activiate read out aloud' option and then select option of reading a page or whole document.
Hope this helps you.
Please let me know whether it worked.

Liz / Hiten Even for me when I tried to read certain pages, I could only hear "Warning Page Empty" This works only for ebooks, and not other PDF wherein there is a total mixture of photo and text. 8)
