Make Your Mac Speak

Did you know that your Mac can read aloud to you? Mac OS X Leopard

includes a cool Text to Speech function that makes the Mac speak

selected text in text-based files — including web pages, email messages,

spreadsheets, calendar entries, PDFs, text documents, Finder windows,

and even iTunes.

How?

1.To start, open the System Preferences panel under the Apple icon and

click on Speech.

2.Select the Text to Speech tab, check the option “Speak selected text

when the key is pressed,” and click the Set Key option. Choose one

modifier key — Command, Control, Option, or Shift — plus one other

key of your choice, then click OK. Now each time you type this key

combination, your Mac will read aloud any text you have selected. To

stop the speech, type the same key combination again.

NOTE: You can even choose your Mac’s voice. Mac OS X includes 24

human-sounding and novelty voices, from the suave Alex to the robotic

Zarvox. (To see the complete list, click the “Show More Voices” option at

the bottom of the pull-down System Voice menu.)

Rate of Speed: You can also ask your Mac to speak more slowly or

quickly by adjusting the Speaking Rate slider. Whichever you choose,

listening to your text can be a surprisingly useful tool for editing and

proofreading.

Application Announcements: In addition to speaking selected text

aloud, you can configure Text to Speech to announce when an

application needs attention or to summon you if you ignore an onscreen

alert. This function includes an adjustable delay between the text alert

and the spoken announcement, which gives you a chance to tend to the

alert before being verbally prompted. You can also have your Mac

announce the time on the hour, half-hour, or quarter-hour. To set this

up, click Open Date & Time Preferences and check Announce the Time.
