ReadableWeb

Adds Readable text to speech and highlighting capability to Edge Browser.

Readable Web Extension adds extra text to speech (TTS) and underline highlighting capability to Edge Browser. It will speak any accessible web page content by selecting the text with your mouse. You can also have the words or sentences underneath the mouse spoken, and can choose the “mouse hover” setting to speak a word, line or “block” which is normally a sentence.

Readable Web includes the novel underline highlighting technique (first created in Readable for Windows) for many text to speech voices. We will either underline individual words as they are spoken, or underline the block of text. You can choose the colour of the underline highlight from Readable web settings.

The Readable web extension uses the text to speech voices available on your PC and also available through the web browser you are using. You will find a wide range of text to speech voices available, often with very high quality like the Microsoft Natural voices, in a very wide range of languages.

Using Readable Web extension is simple. Select a block of text with your mouse, and Readable will speak that text, and also show an underline highlight if selected and available. To stop speech, left click your mouse or mouse pad, or press the SHIFT key. To control speech underneath the mouse, you can choose the settings "CTRL+Move to speak". CTRL key acts as your "speak" button for the mouse. Pressing CTRL again will repeat the section of speech.

Please note that when Readable Web extension is running and you select text it will be spoken. If you want to copy that text to the clipboard, wait for speaking to stop. Alternatively, put the Readable Web extension into "Silent Mode" in the settings, and then you can copy and paste as normal (without speech being created). Please note Readable does not speak PDF files shown in the browser, we recommend the Sensory PDF Reader for speaking PDF files.
