Support and design principles
TxtSays explains both what it can do and where its limits begin.
Korean and English speech
TxtSays offers ten local Supertonic 3 FP16 styles by default and separates Google TTS and Microsoft TTS in the player settings.
Browser-first processing
Extraction and sentence planning happen in the browser. TxtSays does not store your file or extracted full document on its servers.
Optional Google sign-in
Sign-in is not required. Firebase synchronizes only the display theme, interface language, and reading position—not document files, text, or audio.
Word lookup by choice
Korean–English meanings are off by default. Dictionaries and on-device translation are used only after you enable the feature.
Frequently asked questions
Is TxtSays a TTS site or audio reader?
Yes. TxtSays is a browser-based text-to-speech reader for PDF, TXT, and MD files. Start from any sentence and choose Supertonic 3, Google, or Microsoft speech.
Can I start in the middle?
Yes. Click the sentence you want and playback starts there. The progress slider is available for faster movement.
Is my file sent to a server?
Your PDF, TXT, or MD file, extracted full text, and generated audio are not uploaded to your TxtSays account, whether or not you sign in. Only display settings and reading positions are synchronized.
Can TxtSays read scanned PDFs?
TxtSays does not currently perform OCR. Run text recognition on image-only documents before opening them here.
Where is my position saved?
When signed out, it stays in this browser. With Google sign-in, only an account-specific content-derived identifier and last sentence number are synchronized so the position can be restored on another device.
Do I need Google sign-in?
No. Every document-reading feature works without signing in. Sign in only if you want to synchronize your display theme, interface language, and reading position across devices.
