The ATSB website now offers a text-to-speech service called ReadSpeaker—an application that lets you listen to text on the ATSB website.
Wherever you see this icon. 
ReadSpeaker will read the text out loud for you.
You can also listen to PDFs through ReadSpeaker when you click the ‘Listen to this PDF’ link, located near the Download PDF icon.
ReadSpeaker means you can listen to our website content from any device connected to the Internet. It will help people who have trouble reading text online better understand the information on the website. Listening to audio is another way to explore our website, particularly if you spend long periods of time on your computer or mobile phone.
You don’t have to download anything to use ReadSpeaker. When you click the ‘Listen’ button a control panel will appear and ReadSpeaker will automatically start reading the web page out loud.
In the control panel you can:
- adjust the volume
- pause the reading
- stop and restart the reading
- choose ’No sound? if you want to download an MP3 audio file
- choose ‘Settings’ if you want to customise the ReadSpeaker service.
If you only want to listen to a few paragraphs, select the text that you want to listen to and then press the pop-up listen button 
which appears next to the mouse pointer after you have made your selection.
