TTS(text to speech) right to left

Hi
I am currently tryign to format a TTS panel to read form right to left.
I enter the text right click the boc and select right to left and hte text moves, but as soon as I click out of the box the text jumps back to left to right.
I have tried different ways of doing this like changing the direction first for example.
Has anyone experienced this and if so how can I rectify this?
Thanks

Thanks for your reply.  That's what I was afraid of. (I could probably program such interface myself, but I really don't like working with Microsoft code, libraries and interfaces... and I have a bit of a time constraint)
That wrapper executable you pointed to looks like it could be promising (and has source code), I'll check it out.

  • How to make a tts text-to-speech keyboard shortcut

    Hi,
    How do I make a tts text-to-speech keyboard shortcut
    to control the OSX "Speech" available as a contextual menu
    when you right-click selected text in Safari, TextEdit and other native apps
    *Speech > Start Speaking*
    *Speech > Stop Speaking*
    I can get this far:
    *System Preferences > Keyboard > Keyboard Shortcuts >*
    I have low-vision and need this on as many as possible or all text running on my computer.
    Less important: The "Speech" contextual menu is not available right-clicking text in Google Chrome. I could sure use it there too.
    THANKS!

    If you want it turned on permanently open Universal Access preferences, click on the Seeing tab, turn on VoiceOver. Click on the VoiceOver Application button for more configuration options.
    There's also a shortcut option for TTS in the Speech preferences.

  • Does Nokia 515 have TTS (Text-to-Speech)?

    Hi,
    my friend who lost 90% of his eyesight is an avid Nokia user.
    He has been using E52 phone for many years mainly for it Text-to-Speech option which allowed him to use a cellular phone at all. (for those who do not know - the phone reads sms, menus, contacts etc.)
    Recently, company he is working at, offered him a phone replacement so he asked for a newer Nokia phone that is similar to E52 functionality-wise. They got him Nokia 515. Although it offers most of the E52 stuff it looks like  this model doesn't have Text-to-Speech support in the system. Is there any way he can enable TTS on this new phone? Or is there maybe any App in the Ovi Store that would offer such functionality?
    If not than maybe there is some different modern Nokia phone (but without a touch screen) that supports visually impaired people in such way E52 did?
    Thanks for answering,
    Leaffar

    Nokia 515 uses as operating system Nokia Series 40.
    Nokia E52 uses as operating system Nokia Symbian/S60.
    I am neither aware of any solution via the Nokia Store, nor newer models than the Nokia C5-00 5MP. Technically compared to your Nokia E52, this is a step back because it does not offer Wi-Fi.

  • Using TTS (Text to speech) What characters are illegal?

    I'm using TTS to generate lots of audio files from text documents. TTS hangs up from time to time on different characters. Is there a list of illegal characters that I can try to avoid? The text is already written so I'll need to make some sort of batch process to strip and/or replace illegal characters. Here's an example of what Im typing in the terminal: say -o ~/Desktop/TTS/AudioFile.aiff This is the text to be read in the audio file.
    Maybe I'm just looking for characters that are illegal in the terminal?
    Any help is appreciated, Thanks!

    Yeah, excel might be putting escape codes or such in there, maybe een a printer driver & fonts if I know MS.
    I don't know about excel, but from NeoOffice I can save as an .xls file as txt/csv.
    I looked a an xls file in HexEdit & there is far more junk than text in it.

  • [JS] [CS4] Right to left text when Placing

    Hey.
    In CS4 - If I want text to flow right-to-left for an entire story when doing a text file 'Place' what attributes do I need to set?
    Thanks for your help.

    I'm pretty sure that you need the style to be set to 
    the World Ready Composer to get right-to-left text to import correctly.
    Other than that, you might want to set the story direction (for multi-
    column frames), and paragraph direction as well as an apropriate font, 
    etc...

  • Vertical Right-to-Left Text?

    How can I enter vertical text that reads right-to-left in Pages? This is the traditional way of writing for some languages such as Japanese. This is trivial to do in Microsoft Word. There must be a way to do this in Pages. Can anyone help?

    Tom Gewecke wrote:
    Pages doesn't have that capability. Aside from Word, I think the only apps that might are iText/Lightway Text, Neo/OpenOffice, QuarkExpress 8, and the Japanese version of Adobe InDesign.
    Yes, that is more or less my list as well. Last time I went to Japan, I tried to get hold of a copy of the discontinued Japanese word processor Egword, but failed. I asked one of the shopkeepers in Akihabara if there were no commonly used alternatives to MS Word 2008 for the Mac, and got the unusually clear answer "No".
    The Japanese version of MS Word has the advantage over Western versions that it automatically proposes the hiragana when you add ruby text. I do not think that works in any of the Western versions, even if Japanese features are switched on.
    In addition the Japanese version contains all (?) the Western dictionaries and proofing tools, like "French Grammar", "Nynorsk Hyphenation" and "German Thesaurus" and all that.
    Provided you are able to read the Japanese text in the menus and dialogues, the Japanese version of MS Word is a fairly good investment.
    By the way, last time I checked, only the English and Japanese versions of MS Word did vertical text and ruby. The French and German and the other ones do not. I think.

  • Making placed Arabic Copy from Word read right to left

    Hello!
    I am placing a  word document into Indeign that is done in Arabic.
    When I place it, it reads from left to right (for example, there is a number that starts each paragraph and it shows up on the left, but should be on the right).
    Is there a setting that would let the text read from right to left?
    thanks
    babs

    You need one of the following:
    Expensive option: InDesign CS4 ME edition or CS5 ME edition
    OR
    Not-expensive option: InDesign CS4 or CS5 with World Tools installed
    OR
    Free but barely functional option: InDesign CS4 or CS5 with a script to turn on the World-Ready Composer (which is in CS4 and CS5, but not accessible to normal English-languge installs of ID without a plugin or a script; just search Google for "World-Ready Composer" to learn all about it)
    AND
    someone literate in Arabic to check your work.
    World Tools has all of the numbering/character direction/hanging indent/etc. tools you need, while the scripts to turn on the WRC do not. I am a very happy user of World Tools - it has all of the necessary tools for doing RTL layouts at a very reasonable price point.
    Also, I have to point out that my Arabic translation teams have never submitted a translation of a numbered list in English that was still "numbered" in Arabic in Hindi numerals; I've always seen 'em convered to lettered lists. (That is, alef, beh, teh instead of 1, 2, 3.) Stuff like that is why I suggest that you really do need someone to check what you've typeset. Beyond that, if you don't understand my list-advice, you should probably turn over the typesetting of your Arabic who is already an experienced designer/typesetter/formatter/DTPer/whatever in Arabic.

  • Arabic Subtitles (right to left)

    hi,
    I'm working on a dvd project with 10 subtitle streams - one of them being arabic. When I paste the arabic text into dvd studio - the text is displayed in the wrong direction (left to right). is there a way to change the font direction in dvd studio for a single subtitle track.
    I tried to paste the text directly from mellel (text editor with right to left support) with no success. I have imported all other subtitles via stl import with nearly no problems
    has anyone already produced a dvd with arabic or hebrew subtitles?
    cheers,
    /ingo
    PS: I'm using dvd studio version 4.2.0

    hi tom,
    thanks for the tip - I got some nice arabic subtitles in dvd studio!! now i just have to find out what to do with the menus, i did in aftereffects - but I guess that's something for another forum...

  • I need to reprogram the delete and enter key to the left side of a external keyboard for the ipad mini. don't need the caps/lock or ctrl key and due to an injury my daughter can only use her left hand to type. She is using a text to speech app to verbaliz

    I need to reprogram the delete and enter key to the left side of a external keyboard for the ipad mini. I don't need the caps/lock or ctrl key. Due to a brain injury my daughter can only use her left hand to type. She also uses a text to speech app to verbalize all of her needs since her speech isn't intelligible any longer either. And her vision was significantly affected also, so the keyboard has to be mounted about 6 inches from her face. So to reach across the keyboard with her left hand to the right side delete and enter button is physically difficult and causes typing errors, which cause people to not understand what shes trying to say.
    The best keyboard so far is the Zagg folio mini. I just had to make stickers to enlarge the letters on the key buttons.
    Does anyone know how I can reprogram these two keys? Or where I can buy a wireless mini keyboard for Ipad made for lefthanders with these two functions on the left side. I have searched for days and days. It's sooooo important to me that she be able to contribute her voice again. Imagine if you got in a car accident and couldn't speak clearly any longer, but understood everything still. Thanks for any help and suggestions you all take the time to share with me. I really appreciate the kindness of strangers to help me help my daughter.

  • I have an iPad 2 with iworks, in pages and keynote I noticed it cuts the first letter on the right when I open an imported doc or ppt or even paste text from an email. I type in Hebrew (right to left language).

    How to solve?pages and keynote cut the first letter when opening an imported file from doc or ppt or even when pasting text to a new pages document.
    I write in Hebrew, which is a right to left language.
    Never got a warning that this apps do not work In my language. They are available in my country's AppStore and that was the reason I bought the iPad.
    Thank you,
    Diego

    All iWork apps, both for iOS and OS X, have always had bugs that make them unsuitable for RTL scripts for most purposes.  The only solution is to use something else.

  • How to use math symbols in a right to left text properly?

    Hey there
    When I write a simple mathematical equation or a number(which has sign) in the middle of a right to left text in a text box(I simply set keyboard language to EN for typing expressions & numbers) it's like mathematical symbols are somehow not considered math symbols and that's weird since in word it's not that way, take the following sentence for example that means result of the 0-127 expression is -127:
    حاصل عبارت 127-0 برابر 127- است.
    In word I can type it just fine(for typing expressions and numbers I set keyboard language to EN) but when I type it the same way in adobe acrobat I get this:
    حاصل عبارت 0-127 برابر -127 است.
    copy & paste from word also doesn't do any help, so If I want to get it right I should type math expressions from right to left meaning as instance to type 0-127 I should first type 127 then - and finally 0 also should type digits of a number before typing its sign as example for typing -127 I should first type 127 then - ,now I wonder is it the way acrobat works or I'm doing something wrong.
    By the way OMG o_O even when I did copy & paste my messasge from word to the text box of forum for posting, it ended up treating math parts in upper right to left paragraph the same way as acrobat  I just had to write them from right to left!
    Anyone has any idea?
    Message was edited by: Pooria

    In a word document I wrote:
    حاصل عبارت 127-0 برابر 127- اسـت
    Then tried printing it using "Adobe PDF" printer, in output pdf that sentence was written in right order and interestingly it was broken into three text boxes   thanks for reply.

  • How can set direction right to left for horizontal text area

    I want set direction right to left for horizontal text area
    to view right to left String Type

    I don't know that there is such a thing as right to left
    String Type (I can't find one at least). I am assuming this
    involves some language where printed materials are read from right
    to left.
    Before I try to offer a solution though, it will be helpful
    to know more about that text area. Is the intention to type into
    the text area or to load a string into it?
    And if you are loading a string into it, is the string
    already right to left?

  • Vertical text, right to left text, Japanese documents...

    I downloaded the iWork '09 demo and immediately checked to see if I could finally type a Japanese document in the traditional way (lines vertical top to bottom, read right to left).
    Am I correct in thinking this is still not possible?
    This is the forth version of Pages and it's still impossible to write a document correctly in Japanese. On the Japanese iWork page all the screen shots show English language documents. This alone really says a lot about the quality of this product for non-English documents.

    Am I correct in thinking this is still not possible?
    You are correct. Apple even says that this is the case when it lists the system requirements:
    http://www.apple.com/iwork/systemrequirements.html
    I think the only apps that can do vertical text in OS X are MS Word, NeoOffice/OpenOffice, iTextPro/LightwayText, plus Japanese InDesign or QuarkExpress 8.
