@Mela I think someone mentioned it before, at the very least it's in my personal list as a TTS service to look into at some point. It shouldn't be an issue to add more TTS services, ZoTTS was actually built from the ground up to support more than…

@Mela you can change the voice used from the preferences menu (the same place all the Zotero settings are, there should be a ZoTTS tab on the left at the bottom) There's documentation on how to install more voices for various operating systems her…

@dstillman I've seen this report and didn't think it was to do with me so passed them upstream to you guys. 1) ZoTTS doesn't do any file system interactions so it shouldn't care if a directory exists or not 2) afaict, all of the patching lines "p…

Hi @augustaugust, thanks for the thanks! Glad to hear ZoTTS is useful to you. Would you mind opening an issue on GitHub about the problem? (Just that it's easier for me to track stuff there)

Hi @TiffanyWalsh You're very welcome! I actually ended up making the plugin because I got diagnosed with ADHD during my PhD, and I'd always despised reading papers lol I'm glad to hear ZoTTS is useful to you! Let me know if you run into any issues…

Hi @anna.jones.wolfson Glad to hear ZoTTS is useful to you! The voices ZoTTS uses are the ones installed on your computer but changing the voice of the narrator (/whatever other system settings) won't change what voice ZoTTS uses. To adjust the…

@bhoconnor Unfortunately no, Zotero on mobile (iOS or Android) isn't able to use plugins in the same way that Zotero on desktop is [1, 2] And I am unwilling (due to both time and skill constraints) to develop an entire app for mobile just for this…

@katherineritchie Awesome! Thanks for taking an interest in contributing to ZoTTS, that's great! :D And yeah I agree WSA is not great lol, it was chosen since it was the easiest to implement and every user should have it out of the box so it's a g…

@lingzhelei, oh, sorry I just realised what's going on! ZoTTS doesn't load any UI elements if it failed to start (which has confused a lot of users so I'll probably get rid of that in the near future) If you don't see any UI elements it means Zo…

@lingzhilei, so sorry for the delayed response. In case you need the advice still, yes you can control ZoTTS with either the UI elements or keyboard shortcuts as mentioned on the repo. The default keybinds are Ctrl/Cmd + Shift + : - S for speak - …

@wtottman glad to hear ZoTTS is useful to you! (I was just doing a scan of the forums and was very pleasantly surprised to see people suggesting it to others!) Just wanted to mention that if you have any questions/issues/feature requests/comments…

Hi @sahanarajan18 Apologies for the late reply. The substitutions section is more intended to fix pronunciation issues in words/phrases, but I can definitely try finding a solution for you! Would you mind opening an issue on the GitHub repo? It j…

Fair point lol, it's never been a major issue but you're correct that it would be a good idea to report it...!
-
It did for that one, but previously it's not with any consistency though, the only emails I have about forums posts are from your comment, ones on Sept 15th, Aug 24th May 1st... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
-
@DDBuck Sorry for the slow reply (Zotero forums unfortunately don't send emails about replies to threads etc, so it's on me to manually check in now and then...!) That error is due to the fact that ZoTTS is only compatible with Zotero 7+, if you d…

@KKri Hi, I'm not sure how relevant this problem is and if you still need a solution, but just to let you know a couple of months ago I published a plugin to do text to speech natively within Zotero Here's a link to the plugin with details about h…

@soyeonlee4 hi, creator of ZoTTS here! The plugin should work on any platform (Windows, Mac and Linux) out of the box! If you have any issues you're very welcome to open an issue on the GitHub repo and I'll see what I can do to help.

Hi @johnkaye Apologies for the slow reply, was away from everything visiting family. I'm glad the plugin seems useful to you, sorry to hear it's not been working though. A fair few Mac and Linux users have reported the plugin not working correctly…

Thanks for your comment @Thomas. Rivera, yeah others have mentioned about that and it's definitely my primary focus at the moment! The reason it wasn't available from the beginning is that getting the raw text looked to be much more of a headache t…

Having recently used the above framework, I definitely recommend using it! I'd never coded in TS before but that framework added a tonne of support and features which removed a lot of headaches. As for developing for Z6 vs Z7, Z7 is based on a muc…
