With DSpeech you don't even have to use Read Please, and it saves to mp3
too:

<q>
DSpeech is a TTS (Text To Speech) program with functionality of ASR
(Automatic Speech Recognition) integrated. It is able to to read aloud the
written text and choose the sentences to be pronounced based upon the vocal
answers of the user. It is specifically designed to quickly and directly
provide the functions and improved practical usefulness that are requested
by this kind of program. In the meantime, the invasiveness and resource
consumption is minimal.
(DSpeech does not install itself, is very light, starts in a second and
doesn't write anything to the registry). Some notable features of DSpeech
are:

1. Allows you to save the output as a .WAV or .MP3 file.
2. Allows you to quickly select different voices, even combine them, or
juxtapose them in order to create dialogues between different voices.
3. DSpeech integrates a vocal recognition system that, through a simple
script language, allows you to create interactive dialogues with the user.
4. Allows you to configure the voices in an independent way.
5. Thanks to apposite TAGs, it allows you to dynamically change the features
of the voices during the playback (speed, volume and frequency), to insert
pauses, emphasize specific words, or even to spell them out.
6. Allows you to capture and reproduce the content of the ClipBoard.
7. DSpeech is compatible with all modern vocal engines (SAPI 5 compliant).

Hello,

as it seems we now found a solution (DSpeech), why do you
always crosspost to alt.comp.freeware.discussion and to
alt.comp.freeware? I think, alt.comp.freeware should be
completely enough...

Regards,
Thorsten
