Re: My Scansoft Voices Won't Work in TA3

When I first started this thread back in October the problem was that I had several Scansoft voices that were supplied with other Scansoft/Nuance applications (Dragon, PDF Converter Pro, Paperport, Omnipage). All worked fine in TextAloud 2 and also in the TA3 beta. However all stopped working as soo...

Re: My Scansoft Voices Won't Work in TA3

Yes, most likely. I had two SS voices installed previously that worked well in TA2 and TA3 beta: Samantha ans Tom. Samantha was purchased from NextUp but Tom had been installed long before - not sure by which program - but Tom also worked in TA. Then shortly before installing the TA3 licensed upgrad...

My Scansoft Voices Won't Work in TA3

I just upgraded from the TA3 beta to the full upgraded TA3. Looks OK, works OK with AT&T Audrey (UK English), but none of my Scansoft voices will read article text. Beyond that, one voice - Scansoft Lee (Australian English) crashes TA3 within a second or two after I click on the Speak button in ...
