We have recently come across a great piece of software aimed at helping anyone who has difficulty reading text on a computer screen by reading the text aloud.  L’il Mouth is a  text to speech application that can be downloaded and installed for free.  L’il Mouth will read out any text that you can ‘copy’, whether it is on a Word document, PDF file or website.

The great thing about L’il Mouth is that it is very simple to use – all you need to do is highlight and copy the text you want it to read out then click on the mouth icon on your screen.  L’il Mouth will work with whatever voice is set as default in the ’speech’ options and can be used with the Scottish Voices mentioned in the recent post ‘Text to Speech’.
