Key Features and Benefits: Bring words to life It's simple, really. Just paste your text into the window or import an RTF, .txt or .doc file into Narrator and your letter, story - any text - is brought to life using voice synthesis. You can choose different voices, rates, pitches, inflections and volumes for each character you assign, giving your text a wide range of expressiveness. There are also silent read-along options for stage directions or for you to read out your own parts. And if you need more characters, you can get additional voices and in several languages. Not just story-telling Narrator has its professional uses. That business letter you're ready to send to a prospective customer? Have Narrator read it out for you - you'll know right away if what you wrote is what you want to have read. That big meeting where you took a lot of notes? Assign characters to each participant and listen again so you don't miss anything. Listening made easy You can also export speech directly to iTunes, where you can listen to it over and over, or sync it to your iPad, iPod or iPhone. This enables you to create your own audiobooks from text - for example, take a work of classic literature from Project Gutenberg, assign characters to the story and export to iTunes. There is also an export option for AAC sound files for use with other sound playing software, for example, using as a soundtrack in iMovie or as a screencast voiceover. A product that likes to learn To help you improve the pronunciation of tricky words, Narrator includes Dictionary preferences. You enter a list of words to look for, and words or phrases to use instead when speaking. You can replace an acronym or symbol with a more elegant phrasing or spell words differently so they are pronounced correctly.
