Hi Andy.

Yep, not many people seem to know about this but they do, a lot of people 
stick to Eloquence for some reason including my good self, however if you go

to the Freedom Scientific website and go to the downloads page for JAWS, 
there is a link to download the voices on that page.

All the best, Ibrahim.

Ibrahim - Is this right, that Freedom Scientific provide the Vocaliser
voices for JAWS? I've looked under synthesizer and Braille manager, and can
see the Vocalize synth, but when I check it to add it, nothing changes, and
I can't find any voices for it. What do I need to do to get the vocalize
voices on here? -

Andy
