<p class="MsoNormal">If you were attracted to Xerte because of the inbuilt text to speech they knew maybe even more interested to hear that post 16 learning providers in England will very shortly have access to two free, brand new voices TechDis Jess and TechDis
 Jack. These are much higher quality than the inbuilt Windows voices that are normally picked up by Xerte.  By simply setting Jess or Jack to be your default windows voice, Xerte will always speak using that voice.</p>
