Speak



Audio Notetaker can use Mac's in-built system to read out the text in your Text and Reference Panes. Click the Speak button to read out the text in the current section from the cursor position.
You can press the button a second time to stop speaking and the cursor position will move. Press Speak again to resume.

Clicking on the dropdown menu will give you further options;
