Dejal announces Narrator 2.0.2: Text-to-Speech

Dejal announces Narrator 2.0.2

Portland, Oregon – Dejal Systems, LLC is proud to announce Narrator 2.0.2,
the latest version of their popular text-to-speech utility for Mac OS X
Leopard. At its basic, Dejal Narrator leverages the Mac’s speech synthesis
to read marked passages of a text document, utilizing specified voice
attributes for each of the story lines’ parts.

With a focus on ease-of-use, users can have a range of “actors” that can
portray any number of “characters”, so various passages of the document are
spoken with differing voices, pitch, inflection, etc. Words are dynamically
highlighted on-screen as passages are read out loud. Choose different
voice, rate, pitch, and inflection, as well as volume levels for each
character in the story. There are also a couple of silent read-along
options for stage directions, or for users to read out their own parts.

To help users better organize stories, Narrator now supports multiple
chapters in each document. It also offers a word replacement dictionary to
fine-tune the pronunciation.

Dejal Narrator can now export stories as AAC sound files, or export them to
iTunes. Users can listen to their stories on an iPod or iPhone, which makes
Narrator particularly useful for creating audiobooks.

Version 2.0.2 fixes some important issues, and is a free update for
licensed Narrator 2 users.

Language support:
English, German, French

Minimum Requirements:
* Mac OS X Version 10.5 Leopard or later
* Universal Binary for PowerPC and Intel

USD, and available as a full-featured demo. There are also Household and
