Get the program to read text files. The best software for reading e-books

For those who are aware of the other, the word is the same on the scale of Twitter-a reminder, blaming a reasonable food: "And now the stench is needed on a computer, or a program-reader?".

Really, it’s not big for the texts to be sure operating system it is possible without any problems - regular supplements for the selected vistach. Ale іnstrumentіv, scho allow normally prаtsyuvati z bolshe sоіdnіmi rіzmіrami in "pure" sіstemі simply nemaє. And with the staff, it’s already unhandy, and those eyes are very tired.

So why do you happen to read great texts on the screen, and you want to work with maximum comfort, and at the same time you want to save your money, without special programs - electronic readers- You just can't get enough.

Program for reading e-books It is necessary to finish the bagato. The skin has its pluses and minuses. But it’s impossible to describe them all in one article. To that I will get rid of those who for long years have "taken root" on my computers. Abo periodically, if necessary, blame them.

Easy that zruchna program. I want to be updated not too often, all versions, as before, are practical. Designed for Windows, but Linux sound good works under Wine. Also, official pid keruvannyam Windows Mobile.

On mobile platforms, IMHO, there are no serious competitors, neither for ability, nor for efficiency.

May there be a great number of all the powers that be, in which you can not look, but there is no need - more options to do reasonably set and default.

There is a great list of formats that are supported, including the mega-popular FB2. One of the bad things that is processed without forward conversion is ODT files (Open Document, which is featured in OpenOffice.org, Microsoft Office and LibreOffice).

The interface behind the lock will make a book burnt open, the yellow background of the sides is comfortable for the eyes and even easier to read when reading. As a bonus - AlReader does not care about installation and can be used from any mobile phone. Especially for me it is the most popular program for reading files in FB2 and EPUB formats.

Good day!

"Bread to live the body, and the book to live the mind"...

Books are one of the greatest wealth of a modern person. Books appeared long ago and cost more dearly (one book could be remembered for a series of korіv!). In today's world - books are available to everyone! Reading їх, we become literate, develop horizons, kmіtlivіst. She vzagali, until they foresaw a thorough knowledge of the knowledge for transmission one to one!

Z development committee computer technology(Especially in the remaining 10 years) - it became possible not only to read books, but to hear them (so you will read them special program, in a human voice). I want to tell you about software tools for voice-over text.

First, go to the list of programs, I would like to focus on expanding problems and look at the issues, if the program cannot read the text.

On the right, in that there are voice engines, there can be different standards: SAPI 4, SAPI 5 or Microsoft Speech Platform (for most programs for interpreting text, there is a choice of different tools). So the axis, it is logical, that the program for reading in a voice is needed a dvigun (if it is new, it will be read to you, in a voice like a man or a woman, thinly).

Modern movers

Engines can be cost-free and commercial (naturally, the best quality in sound makes commercial engines safe).

SAPI 4. Old versions of tools. For modern PCs, it is not recommended to beat old versions. Better to get up to SAPI 5 or Microsoft Speech Platform.

SAPI 5. Modern modern engines are both cost-free and paid. On the Internet, you can find dozens of modern SAPI 5 engines (with a woman's and a man's voice).

One of the best programs for voicing text. Allows your PC to read only simple files in the format txt, but what's new, RSS, be it a web site on the Internet, e-mail that in.

In addition, it allows you to convert the text to an mp3 file (which you can then convert to any phone or an mp3 player and listen at a high price, for example). Tobto. You can create audio books on your own!

The voices of the IVONA programs are even more similar to the real ones, it's good to talk to vimova, they don't get stuck. Before the speech, the program can be a cordial one for those who speak foreign language. Zavdyaki can be heard correctly vimova quiet chi іnshih words, turns.

We support SAPI5, plus we cooperate with the best programs (for example, Apple iTunes, Skype).

Butt (recording of one of my recent articles)

Minus: some unknown words are read with the wrong voice and intonation. In general, it’s really bad, to listen, for example, a paragraph from a book of history, while you go to a lecture / lesson - look more lower!

Balabolka

The program "Balabolka", the leading rank, is recognized for reading aloud text files. For the creation of necessary, Crimean programs, voice engines (movie synthesizers).

You can control additional standard buttons, similar to silent ones, which are present in any multimedia program ("voice/upinity/upinity").

Butt of creation (the same one)

Minuses: deyakі unknowing words are read incorrectly: voice, intonation. Inody, skipping rozdilovі signs and do not break pauses between words. Ale, you can hear with a blast.

To the point, the sound of the sound is strongly deposited in the moving engine, so in one and the same program the sound of the creation can be blown apart!

ICE Book Reader

Vіdmіnna program for working with books: reading, cataloguing, searching for needed information. , FB2-TXT, etc.) ICE Book Reader supports .LIT, .CHM and .ePub files.

Until then, ICE Book Reader allows you not only to read, but also to a wonderful library:

• allows you to save, process, catalog books (up to 250,000 thousand copies!);
• automatic ordering of your collection;
• a quick search for a book from your "calling place" (especially relevant, as you have a lot of non-catalogued literature);

With the help of Sakrament Talker, you can turn your computer into a "roaming" audio book! The Sakrament Talker program supports the RTF and TXT formats, can automatically recognize the encoding of the file (singingly, sometimes it was noted that the programs used to open the file from the "cracks" replace the text, so the axis of Sakrament Talker is not possible!).

In addition, Sakrament Talker allows you to download large files, it is easy to know these other files. Voice over text can not only be listened to on a computer, but also saved to an mp3 file (whichever way you can copy to any player or phone and listen far away from a PC).

On the whole, it is a good program, as it supports all popular voice engines.

Everything is good for what. I don’t care about those that today’s programs can’t all over the world (as if 100%) read the text in such a way that a person could not identify who is reading: the program is a person ... But I care what if the programs go: tightness of the computer ' yuterіv grow, dviguns grow in obsyazі (including all new and new navіt naiskladnіshi movnі voroti) - and it means that soon the sound will be heard in the program will not be in vіdіznіtі vіd zvichaynoї mov people?!

Away robots!




Social buttons.

All healthy!

Folk wisdom: "Spokonviku book to grow people" ...

Who would not talk about today's digital world, that paper will soon come to light, etc. - all the same, books, in my opinion, will be darker and more relevant for a long time. Navpaki, modern technologies to help you learn more and it is easy to know those books and the information in them, as you need. At once, in one tablet, before the speech, you can take advantage of the whole library, and know it in any place, for example, at a cost to work, at home, at school, too!

And there is one more plus that gives us today's PZ - the ability to listen to books, more than anything you read a living person! Modern voice engines allow you to hear the text in human, female, childish voices. About everything, report below ...

Important! In order for the programs presented below to read your text of a book (magazine, newspaper, etc.) - a necessary voice engine. Tobto. you need a program for reading + an engine for robots! From the engine, before the speech, without intermediary lie down like a reading (so that there is no "be-me", it is necessary to choose a good voice engine).About the dviguny is reported in the other part of the article.

Voice engines: people and women

Respectful respect: engine for movie synthesis does not match the design of the chi interface. After you have installed it in the system - do not remember any changes! To work with the engine - you need a program for reading texts: Balabolka, Govorun, Ice Reader and so on.

Axis to that, to the point of speech, often koristuvachi to weld on that chi іnsha program, which you cannot read the Russian text (otherwise you cannot). Just stink forget about the need to install a moving engine.

A couple of words about standards...

Voice engines can be implemented in different standards (so called), the main three are: SAPI 4, SAPI 5 or Microsoft Speech Platform (Note: May be in the skin reader program, you can choose the current engine).

SAPI 4

A good standard has been relevant for a dozen years. On today's day, having starred and on modern computers / laptops, it is not true.

SAPI 5

Microsoft Speech Platform

Microsoft Speech Platform is a great set of tools for retailers, which allow you to implement the possibility of translating the text into language.

tse set of tools that allow retailers of various supplements to realize the possibility of translating the text into voice.

Note! Schob synthesizer movie pratsyuvav, it is necessary:

Text-to-speech engines Dіgalo // Mikola

Website: http://www.digalo.com/index.htm

Even the most popular Russian voice engine (the voice of a man!). Pіdіyde bіlshіst programs, yakі vmіyut read the text by voice. In my humble opinion, one of the best available engines for the synthesis of mov (Russian mov). Russian Crimea, before speech, on the website of the retailer, engines are available for more languages. Minus: without registration it works only two days.

To finish the iniquity of my mover with a woman's voice. After the completion of the dvigun, he became a partner with "Mikolaj".

Chi become dvigun naivikoristanishim - I don’t know, show the hour!

Before the speech, how do you think, what will be the splitting of my engine, which will not strike the voice of a great person? Abo, maybe, the wine is already є, but I don’t know anything about it ... (throw off the name!)

That's all, good luck!

Bagato who among us love to read. We read at home and on a robot, at a cost and for recovery, we need different literary styles and straight forward, and deacons simply do not show their life without books. With this, the crime of visual rendering of texts, the koristuvach may need to voice the rest (for example, when implementing voice content on other sites). So we can come to the aid of different voice engines online that allow you to create required koristuvachev text of different voices. For this material, I will tell you how to voice the text online by voice, how to use online services for this, and how to speed them up.

For most voices, the voice acting of the text by voice online is standardized, and straightened out, more sharply, to demonstrate the possibilities of the reverse voice engine, lower for the realization of the grandiose expansion of the texts of the koristuvach. The cost-free functionality of most online services with a text of 250-300 characters, and for the full feasibility of the voice engine and the implementation of great communications, the material will have to pay real pennies.

The standard robot template for such sites looks like this: you go to the resource, choose a special window language is needed, choose a woman's human voice, enter the text you need at the end of the day and press the 'Save' button. The service reads your text, you make up your mind about the quality of the voice engine, and you try to work on it.

Online voiceover services

Also, there are a lot of popular services, building voiceovers online. Let's move on to their redevelopment with a detailed description of their functionality.

Service Acapela

The first resource, directing to the text by voice online - tse Acapela. Її dvigun can dosit yakіsny riven sounding, є choose woman and human voice(Russian language is represented only by Alyona's female voice), with 300 characters for a cost-free translation of the text, and for a wider opportunity, you will have to pay extra.

Shchob to speed up the possibilities this service switch to new language, select a language (Select a language) to Russian (Russian), enter your text under the phrase "type your text here", check the "I agree with terms and condition" checkbox. To start listening, press the "Listen" button below.

Google Translator Service

Google translation instructions can also be used to read the text online. Before that, I would like to see the classical exchange for a sprat of hundreds of symbols and the non-cash nature of the resource. To the minus - the voice response to the text can be compromised by paid competitors.

To help translate the text, go to https://translate.google.com, enter the required text, and then click on the button with the dynamics image below.

Service Linguatec

One more online talk, yak, under the circumstances, the fencing of their “intelligently cost-free” brothers. Obsjag vіdtvoryuvannogo text in nіy obmezheniya 250 characters (for povnotsіnny functionality you need to pay extra) that yakіst vіdvorennya here dosit average.

To open the text online by voice, go to this resource, in the default language, choose Deutsch, choose Russisch, choose a woman (Milena) or a human (Yuri) voice, enter your text and press the button below.

Service Text-to-Speech

Another online rozmov - ce service Text-to-Speech. The maximum expansion of the text is higher here - there are close to a thousand symbols, the number of creations is also known on a pleasant level.

To listen to the text we need for the help of the voice engine, go for messages, select the Russian language (Language - Ukrainian), enter the text we need for listening, and then click on “Say it”.

Service IVONA

The first online service, about which I want to guess when looking at the voice acting of the typed text online is Ivona. Tsey resource Volodya, singsongly, with the most powerful voice engine in the middle of the rest of the world, with which it is possible to access it less on a paid basis, and earlier it was possible to listen to a copy of the propositions of the text for the help of this voice engine, unfortunately, it was forfeited.

Voice reading software

Program Talker

small software product, zdatny to read out the text by voice, with the help of which it is possible to record readings of the text in wav and mp3 audio format files. Rozmir file to be read 2 gigabytes, є regulation of the speed of the voice, yogo density, reading the text thinly.

Start the program (for example, star axis), install it and run it. Enter the text at the window and click on the button to open the button.

Sacrament Talker

Voice over text can also be used with the help of the Sacrament Talker program. The program is capable of Sakrament TTS Engine 3.0 and six (!) potential Russian voices, works well with great files, the quality of voice recognition to the text is also on top.

The specifics of the work with the program is similar to the previous analogue.

Mobile programs for reading text

A lot of mobile readers can provide functionality for voice reading the text, which can be done by an ordinary koristuvach. Among such readers, I would recognize Cool Reader, Nomad Reader, FBReader, EBookDroid and others. May be all stinks may have the option of voice reply to the text, which can be searched in the settings of these programs.

For some reason, other services were not presented to you, you should also know the list.

Visnovok

If you want to hear the voice of the text voiced online, it can be implemented for the help of online services, which I have already overhauled. With all the fluctuations of the current cost-free functionality of the surroundings of the kіlkom with hundreds of symbols, and on the solid text of the insurance, Google functionality translator. Tim is not a mansch, you can speed up your abilities special programs(Zokrema, the creation of the "Talker" and "Sacrament Talker"), which will help you to fulfill the text you need without any problems.

In contact with

The program "" is recognized for reading text files aloud. For the creation of the sound of a human voice, one can victorize whether it is modern synthesizers installed on a computer.

VMIN VMIN VMIT VMIST BUFER TRAIDED, POSSIAST INTERY, ShO MAST in the documents, ZMINYUVATIT FRUFT I COLORO, CREVATI CHEAKHTANNE IS System Trick (Khodi Polododlen) Abo for the pretext of global strangers, vimyvyati sprat of files smaller size shukati homographs.

On the computer, you can only install one movie synthesizer (voice).

Console Appendage: Zavantagity(KB)
Can't console addon graphic interface it wins in the text mode.
Work mode can be tasks for additional parameters command line or a configuration file.

Utility for editing text from files: Get(KB)
The program allows you to extract text from files in different formats.
The utility does not have a graphical interface, but it works in text mode.

Still unreasonable, is such a program still needed? Axis of posting on the topic:

Forums, where synthesizers and movies are discussed and programs for reading out loud:

The program "" allows you to change old look for the help of themes.

The program can generate computer voices that support SAPI 4, SAPI 5 or Microsoft Speech Platform. Use cost-free and paid (commercial) modern engines. Same high quality the synthesis of promotes will be secured by commercial voices.

Of the modern commercial synthesizers, the interests of Russian coristuvachs are represented by the following voices:

• Alyona(Acapela Group)
• Katya, Milenaі Yuri(Nuance)
• Nicolai(Digalo - Acapela Elan Speech Cube)
• Tatyanaі Maxim(IVONA)

Microsoft Speech Platform

Microsoft Speech Platform (version 11.0) - a set of tools that allow retailers to resolve voice recognition and translate text into language.

For a robotic movie synthesizer, you need to import and install the following components:

1. Microsoft Speech Platform - Runtime is a server part of the platform that provides API for programs (file x86_SpeechPlatformRuntime\SpeechPlatformRuntime.msi).
2. Microsoft Speech Platform - Runtime Languages ​​- typesetting for the server side. At the moment, voices are being voiced for 26 mov, including a Russian voice Elena(files whose names start with "MSSpeech_TTS_").

Tags (key commands) that are tagged for SAPI 5 voices can be tagged for Microsoft Speech Platform voices. But remember that SAPI 5 voices and Microsoft Speech Platform voices are indistinguishable one by one, so it is impossible to switch between them for additional Voice or Lang tags.

Wimovie correction

Koristuvach can win a special list of replacements to improve the quality of the movie. It’s worth it for the vipads, if it’s necessary to change the vim’s words of the other warehouses; for which the actual viraz in the text is replaced by the necessary viraz, which is read. To record similar rules, change the syntax
