Which voices can I use for speech?

Penfriend XL and both Penfriend XL Portable and Penfriend XP Portable now come with high quality CereProc voices.

All current Penfriend products are compatible with SAPI5 voices but not SAPI4, meaning that you can download additional speech engines for reading out your predictions, screen, and so on.

There are some voices which cost money, and others which are freely downloadable. One such is Espeak. The licence conditions of each supplier vary, and Penfriend Ltd is not responsible for checking that your usage meets their terms.

You may already have some of these installed on your computer as part of other applications. If you want one or more of the voices noted here, download them onto your computer and then install them. You may need to be logged in as administrator.
