Hello,

Can anyone recommend a PDF reader, that will read an entire multi-page document out loud? One that doesn't need to be promoted by highlighting text or to go to the next page? One that reads the document until it either finishes said document or I manually tell it to stop?

Or if there is a way to convert it via the Mac before hand and then save it to the phones "Files" section and have it play from there?

Thanks
 
I’ve used Voice Dream in the past. Just checked and it is still going. You might check it out. It is subscription but you could do it for a month and see if it works for you.

I was using converted e-books, but from the release notes it looks like it also does PDFs now.

Thank you... will check this out!!!!
 
was looking for a PDF reader as well and ran into this old thread, just wanted to share after a lot of research and trying different ones out - some buggy, all with some pro or con, so far the best one I've found for PDF specifically (because I want to keep the actual PDF in view in tact) was audeus's pdf reader. Reads everything automatically, no need to manually select, etc.
