Hi Kerri, To download the voices, you'll go to your Voiceover utility with Vo+F8. Go to the "speech" category, and the voices tab should be selected. Vo+Right arrow to where it says "default" and you'll then see a popup button with your currently selected voice. Vo+space on that menu, and go down until you hear "customize.." At that point, activate that, and you'll be presented with a voices table. Interact with this table, and you can see the voice names and languages they're from. Check the voice (s) you want, and if you want to play them, stop interacting with the table, and go right to the "play" button. then you can hear how they sound before downloading. When finished with your voice selection, move to the "ok" button, and you'll be prompted to download the voices. Once this is finished, you will find them in your voiceover voice selection for use.
