DSpeech v1.63.6 Updated
billon on 21 Aug 2017 Change history
- 3MB (uncompressed)
- Released on 21 Aug 2017
- Suggested by AlephX
DSpeech is a text-to-speech program with the option of saving the output to a variety of formats, great for creating audio books from text sources. It also supports dynamically changing the features of the voices e.g. insert pauses, emphasize specific words, spell them out etc. using tags.
The program works out-of-the-box on WinXP and above, using the included Microsoft speech engine SAPI5. For WinNT/2K, you will need to install the speech engine separately. You will find links to plugins, speech engines and voice sets on the program website.
The program can import text from TXT, DOC, DOCX, RTF, HTML, XML and PDF and output to MP3, OGG, AAC, WMA, OPUS and AMR.

pestudio shows details about applications and other system files (.exe, .dll, .cpl, ocx, .ax, .sys etc.) without starting them including:
- Libraries that are used by an application

- Functions (also anonymous) that are exported by an application
- All functions that are forwarded to other libraries
- Obsolete Functions that are exported and imported by an application
- If Data Execution Prevention (DEP) Windows security mechanism is used
- If Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR) Windows security mechanism is used

PDF-XChange Viewer v2.5.322.7 Updated
billon on 12 Aug 2017 Change history
- 20MB (uncompressed)
- Released on 11 Aug 2017
- Suggested by Myles
PDF-XChange Viewer is a feature-rich program that displays multiple PDF documents within a tabbed interface. Edit features include the ability to rotate documents, add comments/annotations to any PDF file, apply custom stamps from any image/PDF file/Windows clipboard, mark-up pages with text and objects, and type directly on any PDF page in "Typewriter" mode. The program supports exporting to BMP/JPEG/TIFF/PNG etc., or extracting text from a PDF page/file. Additional features include capturing the document with the snapshot tool (copies an area to clipboard), measuring tools for distance, area and perimeter, and more. A recommended picture-to-text OCR plugin is available (thanks Bruce) as is a PDF help file.
Reported as functional on Mac/Linux under WINE. Alternatively, PDF-XChange Viewer Portable adjusts paths, with an OCR plugin and help file available from the website as separate downloads.
Note:
- The free PDF-XChange Viewer lacks some features present in the registered version (payware) and, while some "Pro" features can still be used, they'll add a watermark to the document edited upon saving
- For 64-bit, see forum post

@MIKLO - I fully agree it would be better if the jpg's were in the application folder, however they are not really hidden. In the current release the folder where the jpg's are stored can be easily opened and worked with under OPTIONS -> Open Temporary Folder. Hope this helps.

@Emka - The first item under OPTIONS look like you can set the utility to delete the jpgs when you exit the program. I have never been very sure the program actually does what it says, so I simply use the second item in OPTIONS to check and delete as necessary. Periodically I use the jpg instead the pdf so I actually find this useful. Bottom line is that I wish the author would clean all this up a bit more, but I find the utility so useful (use it every day almost) that I am prepared to work around the idiosyncrasies. |
