Frequently asked questions

  • How do I use text to speech?

    Paste a script into our AI text reader, then select the voice. Our tool will convert text to speech and create an audio track you can preview. If you like how it sounds, download the file to use in a lesson, video, podcast, or personal project.

  • How can I choose different text-to-speech voices?

    Open the voice menu before you generate the track, then preview a short section. To create natural-read text to speech, match the voice to the language, tone, and pace of your script. Try another option if the first result feels too formal or bright. Clear punctuation helps expressive, lifelike voices place pauses well. It also helps natural-sounding voices stress the right words.

  • Which languages can I use for speech?

    Our online text to speech tool supports multiple languages. Set the language of your text before you choose a voice — English text to speech, for example. With Spanish text to speech, keep the accents and punctuation of the original. French text to speech sounds clearer when you spell out names and abbreviations the way they should be spoken.

  • Can I turn PDF text into speech?

    A text to speech PDF workflow needs a usable text layer before speech can begin. If the PDF contains selectable words, copy the part you need. Scanned pages may need OCR first, and results depend on scan quality. Once you have text to read out loud, paste it into our tool, choose a voice, and download the finished audio.

  • What makes AI text-to-speech sound natural?

    Our text to speech AI uses a speech model to map words, punctuation, and context to sound. Modern voice AI can add pace and stress that feel closer to human speech. The model turns text into natural-sounding audio by reading each sentence as a whole. Natural-sounding AI voices work well for drafts, explainers, and conversational AI. Voice cloning is a related method that copies traits from a sample speaker, while standard tools use ready-made AI voices.

  • How do I cancel PDF Guru?

    You can cancel your active plan from your PDF Guru account settings, or contact support and ask them to cancel the subscription for you. Account access stays in place until the billing period you already paid for comes to an end.
