    Wrong forum, so I moved this thread into the Acrobat Reader Mobile forum. 😉

    Hi Jamies

     

    Hope you are doing well and sorry for the trouble.

     

    The app supports VoiceOver, the iOS built-in screen reader. VoiceOver allows someone with a visual impairment to use simple gestures to hear PDF content.For more information please check the help page https://www.adobe.com/devnet-docs/acrobat/ios/en/accessibility.html#voiceover

    Hi there,

     

    We are sorry for the trouble. As described you want the read out loud option for iphone.

     

    "Text to speech" or Read out loud function is available in Acrobat Reader desktop version. However, this functionality is yet unavailable in Acrobat Reader mobile application.

    Acrobat Reader for Android and iOS does not provide an In-App Text-to-Speech feature ("Read Out Loud") to read a PDF document. There are no buttons or menus to start, pause, or stop reading the contents of a PDF document within the Acrobat Reader app.

     

    Hope it will help

     

    Regards
