Reading a document aloud is the best proofing trick I’ve ever found! Now you can let Microsoft do it for you. Wendy, our IT tips and tricks adviser, tells you how!

Found on the Review tab in the Speech group, Read Aloud does just that, reads your document out loud to you. The tool is simple to use with only a few customization features.
When you activate the feature a tool bar is displayed with typical audio buttons of previous, play/pause, and next. The Previous and Next buttons jump you forward and backward by paragraph. There is a settings icon that allows you change the read back speed, and you can change the voice from male to female based on your preference.
Give it a try and see what you think!
