    Word 2010 speak selected text limit?


    I often use MS Word 2010's "speak selected text" feature to help edit portions of the text I write. The highlighted text plays back fine, but sometimes it just stops after a few hundred words, even though I've highlighted more text. Is there a limitation to the amount of text that can be played back at a time? Is that why playback just stops? Thanks.

    :)

    Narrator - want it to narrate just the text I choose...

    Easy way: Copy the text to Microsoft Word 2010 or later.

    Using the Speak text-to-speech feature

    A little harder: Install a third-party text-to-speech utility.

    is one example and there are many more.

  3. how to "select all" on word docs in WP8?

    Other than to select text that you want to format or copy by tapping a word, and then drag the circles at each end to select the text you want to format or copy, I do not know of a way from my usage Sameer.



    Keep in mind that Word Mobile doesn't support all the features in Microsoft Word 2010 or later. I hope over time that more feature are included in the Mobile version and hopefully that will be one.

    Word 2010 speak selected text limit?

    The limit is 4096 characters, including spaces. Note that paragraph and page breaks are counted as one character included in max amount of characters. Limit is the same in Word 2010, 2013 and 2016

    In English text that translates to roughly 700 to 800 words, about 1¼ to 1½ pages (default Calibri 11pt font).
