voice pitch, font, font size and color. Hides in the system tray.

Very simple and easy to use. Freeware. BSD style license.

Best of all Sayz Me is completely free. Spyware free. Adware free.

Nag screen free. But wait... there's more! Not only do you get this

text to voice software for the bargin price of zero dollars, but we

have thrown in the rights to use, copy, study, modify and

redistributed Sayz Me without restriction. " Free " as in beer may be

good... but " Free " as in speech is even better! You can read the

story of how this project came to life and why it is free in the

About section.

Sayz Me includes text to voice functionality and accessability

features which allow you to adjust the font size and color to assist

reading. In documentation you can read up on the system requirements,

installation instructions and there is a quick help guide. If you

find the standard microsoft voices are a bit too bland then we can

point you in the right direction for Additional Voices.

So download Sayz Me, give your eyes a rest and listen as this screen

reader converts text into speech. Copy text from web pages, emails or

documents and have the words read aloud to you. Sayz Me uses the
