Read Out Loud (Text-to-Speech) for PDF needs to be better.

Read Out Loud (Text-to-Speech) needs to be better. Sure, before AI exist, the old 1990 voice is alright but it has to sound better especially when people are paying a premium subscription per month. It should sound better and more natural.

The place where the voice is talking should at least highlight the word and there should be a button to know where it's at. The page should automatically scroll to where that is with a checkbox.

Some PDFs are super long as it's going to be hard to know where the location is.

Selecting different voices would be better.

There needs to be a way to set the page ranges like a printer so stuff is omitted when reading the whole thing such as the index and the end references.

There should be a way to read what is selected, not just the page or the paragraph only.

Correct answer Amal.
