Reading of electronic books by a voice

At present is better voice cursor Elan Speech Cube TTS Nicolai (http://www.elantts.com/, SCUBRUS.exe-12,3 MB, SAPI 5), at me version 4.2.0.0 (full name Elan TTS Speech Cube v4.2.0.0 Evaluation) approaches for reading books. MP3book2005 (http://www.mp3book2005.narod.ru/) for editing the dictionary. ToM Reader Russian (http://tomreader.chat.ru) for reading.
Now about all under the order.
Elan TTS Speech Cube the voice cursor continuing the development from Digalo. Quality good, a voice man's - Nicolai. And certainly main making – the edited dictionary owing to which the pronunciation can be made almost ideal, for today. We see all programs, including PROMT.
MP3book2005 The program for editing the dictionary, reading, and record in mp3. Edits the dictionary perfectly, and here reads not so since does not read correctly the dates brought in the dictionary, accordingly there is no guarantee, that the rest will read truly. At record in mp3 it too remains. Therefore I use only for editing the dictionary.
ToM Reader Russian the program for reading. The main advantage that does not interfere with a pronunciation of a voice cursor, and reads on lines, instead of under paragraphs as in many programs, therefore it is easy to trace reading. Looks as the book in reliure, that too it is convenient.
So, we establish Elan TTS Speech Cube (for work can be demanded additional libraries about what it is possible to learn on http://art.bdk.com.ru/govor/). We copy dictionaries abb_rus.txt and exc_rus.txt in паку C: \ProgramFiles \ELANSpeech \SpeechCube \Data. abb_rus.txt for abbreviations, exc_rus.txt for other words. MP3book2005 edits only exc_rus.txt, abb_rus.txt it is necessary to correct in the Notebook or Word. These are firm dictionaries, them uses Elan TTS Speech Cube.
There is still a dictionary which is built in the reading program (Digalo Russian Nicolai.dic). At all do not use such dictionaries, they only worsen a pronunciation.
We establish ToM Reader and MP3book2005.
In ToM Reader adjustments of a cursor about such:


To edit the dictionary in MP3book2005 we press the button the Dictionary, in the appeared window we load the dictionary exc_rus.txt from C: \ProgramFiles \ELANSpeech \SpeechCube \Data, and the dictionary opens. To add in the dictionary a new word we press the button in top To pronounce words, we write a word in the bottom line, we press the button :) (, we put the cursor on a correct place of an accent, we press (<) and if the pronunciation approaches is pressed To write down a word. Then the button in top To keep changes to rewrite the dictionary.
It is better to hold ToM Reader and MP3book2005 simultaneously opened. Read in ToM Reader, edit in MP3book2005, thus after change of dictionary ToM Reader it is necessary to reload. All.
Lacks:
Elan Speech Cube TTS sometimes reads words written by CAPITAL LETTERS, under letters.

And it is little bit out-of-date variant.
It is possible to take Digalo TTS 2000 (DigaloCoreRus.exe-7,44 MB, SAPI 4) and ToM Reader Russian. Digalo TTS 2000 it is a voice cursor which supports some languages, including Russian. It paid, but it is possible to find crack. ToM Reader Russian it is the program which uses Digalo TTS 2000 for reading books.
Digalo TTS 2000 has Russian voice Nicolai, it is better than voices from other firms, but is not ideal, therefore for it the dictionary is necessary. There are two variants: to use the dictionary built in in  ToM Reader, and to use the dictionary in most Digalo. The first is easier, because uses asterisks (*) words replacing a part, but less qualitative, the second is more complex, but also is more qualitative.
In the first case we take dictionary Digalo Russian Nicolai.dic and it is copied in a  folder dict in  ToM Reader which appears when you open ToM Reader and in adjustments put: to use the dictionary.
In the second case process a little bit longer. But its advantage that you receive a better pronunciation, and other programs, such as PROMT which are not having opportunities of connection of the dictionary, will have a correct pronunciation since Digalo will use the dictionary.
So, we take DigaloEditor 1.0 and it is unpacked in c: \Program Files \Digalo \Digalo 2000 Russian \russian \data. There appear: DigaloEditor.exe – the program for editing the dictionary, abb_rus.txt and exc_rus.txt – dictionaries.
abb_rus.txt for abbreviations, exc_rus.txt for other words. DigaloEditor.exe edits only exc_rus.txt, abb_rus.txt it is necessary to correct in the Notebook or Word.
Now about features of editing in DigaloEditor.
If you wish to add a word or to find, press the button To add, and start to enter, thus automatically there is a search and if such combination is it высвечивается red. And the most important. At a set of a word it already enters the name in the dictionary and if to leave it having kept result, it will be in the dictionary. In independence there is such word in the dictionary or not. Therefore if you have written a correct word, press the button to keep. If it is not correct or such word already is, the entered line delete the button To remove. And so keep-delete after each set. The accent is put by a sign «<» without inverted commas, blanks there should be an equal quantity with one and on the other hand. For example: « a fish a     trout a fish to odds <ль ». A line: « the fish a     trout a fish-odds <ль » will cause a mistake in  Digalo.
With a changeable accent depending on sense, it is possible to write words to a word a combination, and it is possible to write in the form of: for <-мо <to. Then in a word will sound as though two accents. The arrangement of a sign on a hyphen (-) influences a pronunciation, in my opinion it is better before last shock syllable. But double accents on the fan. I, for example, use double accents, somehow it is easier to catch correct sounding in a concrete case.
The result is audible after перезагрузки the reading program.
