Hi Andre If you install the trial version of k1000 (kurzweil reader) you get eloquence. If you then use balabolka you can convert text to a .mp3 with the jaws Reid voice. I do not know about the UK english Reid voice. Regards Fanus

However, I find the very odd phrasing of especially the realspeak voices a bit difficult to understand. Hence my question: Has anyone ever written such a programme which turns text files into audio files using the Eloquence speech synthesizer? That would also mean if you e.g. like the british voice, it then uses the british voice as it is already installed on your computer? Just curious.
