Interesting feature in Acrobat Reader...

For those who view PDF documents via Acrobat Reader 7.0 (which you can obtain free from here --> http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html ) you can have your computer read the document (or a page) to you.

Simply follow these steps...

1) Ensure you have Acrobat Reader 7.0 installed.

2) Open a PDF document.

3) Scroll to the desired page.

4) Select "View" from the menu and then "Read Out Loud"

5) Select "Read This Page Only" or "Read to End of Document"

Your computer will read the selected part of the document to you (ensure you have your volume turned up and your speakers on). Although it has a funny accent, it is quite understandable.

Enjoy!
