Speech synthesis, also called text-to-speech (TTS), converts text into human-sounding audible speech, delivering information to users without requiring them to shift attention from their current task. Learn about new speech synthesis features and APIs on Mac OS X Snow Leopard that help you easily incorporate speech synthesis into your application.
