Read aloud function

Community Beginner ,
Dec 01, 2021 Dec 01, 2021

Hi!

Although I have Adobe Acrobat Pro through my company. I have started using Microsoft Edge as my standard PDF reader because they have a "read aloud" function that actually works pretty well even in Swedish. I have not been able to get this to work in Adobe Acrobat Pro. 

Is this something that Adobe is planning on developing?

What do you see as wrong with read-out-loud in Acrobat Pro? Or does it not seem to be there? Or does it work, but not read Swedish properly?

It reads Swedish as if it were English and only reads one line at a time instead of an entire document.

Did you choose a Swedish voice, as I choose a French voice?

This does not help. From what I can see Microsoft has a far superior ability to read a pdf from start to finish and it is free. 

Thanks all for trying to help. Adobe - listen and try to catch up!
