Check out this site. There are many more like it.
www.readthewords.com
It �s text-to-speech. It won �t sound completely natural but it might suit your needs.

Hi atsanti, and thank you for the link ! But I have a question : is it just with me or the "person" just reads about 20 words ? I wrote a longer text and she stopped right in the middle ... do you know if it works with just a few words ? |

Hi alicia :)
I have the same problem but sign up for free on the site and you �ll be able to do full texts. There �s a limitation ... I think it �s 2 full texts a month or something like that. The homepage is just an enticing preview but if you sign up you �ve got more options beyond 20 words.
To pascy: Haha :) Glad to be of help. There are a lot of readers out there. but doesn�t allow you to record to audio unless you purchase the software. Maybe you can work around this or purchase the software.
:)
