Installing Text-to-Speech

If you want to use the Read article option you need to have a TTS engine installed on your system.

Note: If you have Windows Me or 2000 you should already have a speech engine installed. You can however add more engines if you want. Windows XP also has a speech engine, but it's not compatible with the DLL, so you'll need to download another engine. Windows XP users also need to install Microsoft SAPI 4 (825KB).
