Is there / will there be / a "Read Out Loud" access option for Adobe Reader on the android?

Adobe will "read" a pdf thru a Windows computer sound system.  Can we get the same feature on Adobe Reader / android version?

Great question!!! When I travel I would like to be able to listen to some multi page documents....it would be like a book on tape.

  • Read Out Loud Not working in Adobe Reader XI

    Read Out Loud is not working.  I have selected the the Microsoft Anna voice in preferences. I have selected the recommended "infer order from doc".  I am at a loss to know why it does not work.  I am using MS Office Professional 2013.  Please help if you can.

    Are you sure that the pdf you have isn't a scan? If so, that's just a picture of text so there is nothing to be read.

    Is this a clue? I'm not sure how this fits in.

  • Read Out Loud Accessibility

    I am not able to use "read out loud" for a pdf book file.  I get this error "Read out loud cannot be activated for this document because it's permissions do not allow for content copying for accessibility." I checked under document restrictions and this is true.  I know this is a way to prevent unauthorized copying but I travel a lot on planes and being able to use read out load is a great feature.  I do not want to violate copywrites, just read the pdf book versus the hardcopy, I legally purchased both.
    Is there a solution for me?
    Thanks Ahead of Time

    You will need to ask the provider of the PDF if an alternate PDF, having no restriction on content copy for accessibility is available.
    Be well...

  • Read Out Loud States Authoring for Highlights

    Hello fellow Adobe fans,
    I usually Highlight my user manuals so it's easier to find things later.
    Today I turned on "Read out Loud" and for each Highlighted word it says:
    "Highlight Comment Christine July 31, 2012 7 hours 35 minutes and 1 sec (end link)"
    The "end link" is in parentheses because I'm not positive that's what it's saying.
    This is really annoying!   I've gone through the Preferences numerous times and the help files as well.  Is there a way to disable this?
    Does anyone know why it's doing this and how to stop it?  Or is my excessive use of Highlights the problem; perhaps "Read Out Loud" wasn't designed for it?  Although, even if it was just a few words; it's still extremely distracting.  I could see it's use if I was collaborating with a group; but surely there must be a way to turn this off for the average user?
    About the file: I saved a Microsoft web page by "printing" it to a file using my Quicken PDF Printer.  I'm using Adobe Reader v10.1.3 and Windows XP SP3.
    Thanks very much for your time

  • Will automatic update select 'Adobe Reader X' after support ends for 'Adobe Reader 9.5.5' on 6/23?

      After the recent update for ‘Adobe Reader 9.5.5’ the end of support for this version is June 23, 2013. This is installed on an edition of ‘Windows Vista Home Premium Service Pack 2’. System type: 32-bit Operating System.

      Probably is the best way to go if end of support for ‘Adobe Reader 9.5.5’ is June 23, 2013. Does automatic update select the latest version of ‘Adobe Reader X’?

  • Adobe Read Out Loud feature not working

    Anyone else run into this.  We activate it, it scans the document looking for tags, then does not read it.  Any ideas?

    Hey there hdilios,
    Just been trying to sort this one out myself, I noticed that you tried re-installing Adobe Reader with the same result.
    Could it be that, when you installed the first time / updated and then re-installed, Adobe Reader Protected Mode was automatically re-applied by default. Read Out Loud will not function while in Protected Mode.
    You must disable it to hear Read Out Loud document reader, it is quite safe to disable this additional security function, and the only way to make it work.
    To disable Adobe Reader XI Protected Mode
    - Open Adobe Reader
    - Click menu item Edit
    - Select Preferences
    - Preference panel opens
    - Select Security (Enhanced) in Categories list
    - Uncheck Enable Protected Mode at Startup
    - Dialog opens Click Yes
    - Close Preferences
    - Close/Restart Adobe Reader
    - Open a document you wish to read
    - Activate Read Out Loud
    - Choose Option to read Page or Whole Document
    - or setup for Reading with the Accessability Assistant.
    Hope this is the answer you are looking for, my Read Out Loud feature is functioning fine now it had me baffled for a while, thought my sound card was malfunctioning.
    Cheers Jethro

  • Read Out Loud Not Working - Acrobat Pro v9.2

    Hi,
    I'm working my way through the Adobe Acrobat 9 Classroom in a Book and in Lesson 6 came to a section for accessibility and the Read Out Loud feature. However, when I follow the lesson (and instructions in the Adobe Help files), nothing happens. No sound, nothing.
    I'm using Acrobat Pro v9.2 and Windows Vista.
    Does anyone have any suggestions? I've been searching through the Forums, Help Files, and Google to try to find a solution or maybe see whay I could be doing wrong, but have come up empty.
    I have checked my volume and it is set at maximum volume, and Read Out Load is activated under View -> Read Out Loud.
    Thank you for any assistance.

    Hi Bill,
    Thank you very much, that helped. I didn't know anything opened up when it was activated and set to read so I paid attention to what was happening and noticed the bar on the bottom, but it was there only a second before disappearing. So then I thought to set my preference to a very slow speed (which I learned can't be less than 150 words a minute) and I also changed the voice to a Microsoft voice (SanSoft voices were the other choices). When I tried again, it worked. I don't know if it was the speed or the voice or both, but I never would have considered those if I hadn't been aware of the bar. It must have shown before but it was so quick and I wasn't looking for it that I must have missed it.
    Thanks!

  • Read Out Loud.api

    Installed Adobe Reader XI and the Read Out Loud plug-in is not loaded.  I believe this is way the Read Out Loud feature does not work.  Please tell me how to load the read out loud.api

    There are no error messages.  The reader will not perform the Read Out Loud.  It shows the boxes but no audio so I looked at the plug-ins in the help tab and that's where I see that the read out loud plug-in is not loaded.

  • Adobe X1, Read out loud not working, says page is empty. suggestions

    Using Adobe X1, Windows 8  64bit. When trying to have a document Read Out Loud, says page is empty. any suggestions.

    The usual cause of this is because the page is a scanned image of text and contains no searchable text. Best way to tell is to use the select tool to try and select individual words. If you can't, that' the reason.

  • Why does adobe reader crash when I activate "read out loud"

    OS: Vista 64 bit
    Reader versions: X and 9.4
    When I attemp to activate the "read out loud" feature or set/change reading preferences, the program crashes and force closes.  I did not notice a problem until updating to the new X (10.0.1).  However, I never used the feature much.
    I uninstalled X and downgraded to 9.4 only to find the same problem.  I have a laptop with Vista 32 bit and version 9.4 and the "read out loud" feature works on it.
    Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

  • Is there a 64 bit install for Adobe Reader?

    Hello,
    I want to make a note that I did a search on the form, using the following text
    "Is there a 64 bit install for adobe reader?"
    And I did not find my answer.  That is why I'm posting this as a question.
    So, with that out of the way....
    I am getting ready to build a new computer for myself, and will be running Windows 7 Enterprise 64 bit.  Before I begin, I want to make sure I have all of my software that I want installed, and I am doing research on each program to see if there is a 64 bit version that can be installed.  What I would like to do is have as many as my programs that I install be 64 bit as possible.  I know that not every program will be 64 bit, but I did want to get as many of them as possible to be 64 bit applications.
    As I do want a PDF reader on my computer, and I have used Adobe Reader for years, I started looking on the web site to download the current version.  However, I did not see any place that I could download a 64 bit version of Adobe Reader.
    That is why I'm here asking.  Is there a 64 bit version of Adobe Reader that I can download?  If so, where is it on the web site?
    This does lead me to a follow up question.  Is there a 64 bit version of the Flash Player, as well as the Shockwave player?  If so, where can I download them from as well.
    Thanks in advance,

    Again, I think you need to check the Microsoft web page, as I was able to find 64 bit versions of IE8 for download.
    The URL to access the page is
    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/internet-explorer/downloads/ie-8
    From that page, I am able to select a 64 bit version of IE 8 for the following Operating Systems
      -- Windows XP 64 Bit
      -- Windows Vista 64 Bit
      -- Windows Server 2003 64 Bit
      -- Windows Server 2008 64 Bit
    Windows 7 is not listed as an option as it already comes with IE8 installed by default.
    Looks to me that Microsoft has already released a 64 bit version of IE8.
    In fact, I went ahead and downloaded IE8 for Windows 2003 Server x64 bit, and looked at the details of the file.  Each microsoft download has a digital signature associated with them, showing a date and time of when the exe was built.
    According to what is shown below, IE8 for Windows Server 2003 has been around since Sunday, March 08, 2009.
    So, what has adobe been doing since March of 2009?  IE8 has been 64 bit for well over 2 years now (it will be 3 in March of 2012). While I know that it does take time to develop new applications, I don't think it would take 3 years for Adobe to come up with a 64 bit version of Reader that could have been built under the 64 bit platform.

  • Is there a update for adobe reader 11?

    Is there an update for adobe reader 11?

    Yes, there were 2 updates already released for Reader XI. See:

  • Is there a download for Adobe Reader 11?

    Is there a download for Adobe Reader 11?

    Reader 11 isn't supported for Vista (although it has been succesfully installed).
    To get it, you need to choose the option for a different language or OS and select an OS that is supported. Then it wil give you the option to download 11.
    But again, not supported.
