While Text-to-Speech is playing, the screen will update to the corresponding page

of text.

For PDF files and books which the rights holder does not allow Text-to-Speech to read

aloud their content, then "Text-to-Speech" will be dimmed and you will not be able to

select it.

By default, Text-to-Speech starts reading at the beginning of the page currently

displayed. To start reading at a particular spot, move the cursor where you'd like the

reading to begin before starting Text-to-Speech.

Tip:

You can also play or stop Text-to-Speech by holding down the Shift key

and pressing the Symbol key

. You can pause and resume Text-to-Speech by

pressing the Spacebar. Text-to-Speech continues playing even if you put your Kindle to

sleep by sliding and releasing the power button. Sleeping your Kindle while

Text-to-Speech is playing allows you to continue listening but locks all of the keys and

buttons so you don't inadvertently press one.
