Re: FONTS

Hi,

I reported a similar issue some time ago.

It's related to embedded fonts.

Re: Read Out Loud - Microsoft online TTS engine error

Hi,

I can confirm the issue on PDFXCE but the issue is also reproducible with the TTSApplication tester from NaturalVoiceSAPIAdapter so it's an issue with the adapter and not PDFXCE.

Reported to NaturalVoiceSAPIAdapter Github repository and dev said that it's not supported now.
