The 1.6.15 version of Read4me for Mac was available to download on the developer's website when we last checked. We cannot confirm if there is a free download of this app available. The unique ID for this program's bundle is net.litebeam.read4me.
This application was developed to work on Mac OS X 10.6.6 or later. We recommend checking the downloaded files with any free antivirus. The software lies within Productivity Tools, more precisely Office Tools. This software for Mac OS X is a product of Bas Meijer. The following versions: 1.6 and 1.3 are the most frequently downloaded ones by the program users.
From the developer:
Read4Me lets your Mac do the talking. It will read text and pronounce it in a choice of voices. You can save the audio to file. And it is very easy to start, stop and select another voice, and change the speed of reading in words per minute.
Actually it is a full text editor with spell check, printing, saving to Rich Text Format or Plain Text.
Nice for kids, great for presenters and as a media production utility.
