Best way to convert pdf to audio?

submitted by DailyTacos to AskUpgoat 4 weeksApr 1, 2025 14:24:00 ago (+9/-0)     (AskUpgoat)

Good afternoon fellas. I’m looking for a good text to speech app and didn’t know if y’all had any good recommendations. Preferably free. I’m a broke nigger

Your voice + a mic. Can't be lazy if you want free.

Just add .wav to the end of the file, play that with your audio player app thingy, and record what comes out of your speakers onto your really cool tape recorder from the 60s that looks like from the beginning of Mission Impossible, and hope that it does not self-destruct in ten seconds!

Don't lie to him just to make him look stupid. OP, you have to add .mp3 or it won't work.

You guys are fucking stupid.

Delete the .pdf extension THEN add .mp3, otherwise it will be confused.

A "goat" asks for our help and y'all answer him with BS?

It's like people don't know how to use the interwebz anymore... Did you try this one?

My retard wife turned it on accidentally for a few days and couldn’t figure out how to turn it off. It was fucking hilarious. She works from home on the computer so there was. A. Lot. Of. Speaking. Lol

I use Evie - the evoice book reader

Helps to move the speech rate up (I do 170%) and change the voice to something you don't mind hearing for a while.

if you extract the text, it'll be more straightforward. pdfs can hold all kinds of non-text stuff in funny layouts and what-not.
