When I open a scan image of a book text, and use the OCR to scan the page, I want Adobe Acrobat Pro DC to read the text to me.
My Windows is set to the Danish language, and my Acrobat is downloaded in the Danish version, but the reading voice in Acrobat only reads in English, not Danish.
How do I change the reading voice from English to Danish, so I can listen to my Danish OCR text in Danish?
Hi JanAndreasen,
We apologize for the delay in response to your query.
Could you please confirm the exact language of the document you are working on? Is that document you are working on is also in the Danish language?
Read Out Loud automatic picks the default language of the system and its "Narrator" voice. You need to check what all option do you get the in System Narrator settings.
Windows>Settings>Ease of Access >Narrator > Choose a Voice
​and see the options given there.
Try that and let us kno

Changing the default voice in Windows settings (or adding a new one) does not help. Acrobat uses a different 'default voice' (English) and you cannot change to a different one in Acrobat settings: all voices you see in the Windows settings do not show up in the drop down menu of the Acrobat settings (except for the one you do not want). So this is a bug.

I have the same unsolved problem. There is no possibility of changing the reading language in Windows 7. There is only one in the menu box - English (United States). Setting any other language in Adobe Reader does not help. It reads all languages as in English.

To change the voice for Macs it is under System Preferences-->Accessiblity-->Spoken Content-->System Voice, you can change the options and also download other voices. You can change the Speaking Rate as well.
