Read Pdf Files; Let Kindle Read To You - Amazon KINDLE DX User Manual

Read PDF Files

Kindle DX can display a PDF document without losing the formatting of the original file.
Just drag PDF files over USB to your Kindle or e-mail them to your dedicated Kindle
e-mail address (found on the Settings page on Kindle or the Manage Your Kindle page
on Amazon). If you e-mail a PDF document to your Kindle's e-mail address, we will
wirelessly deliver the PDF file directly to your Kindle via Whispernet, for a fee.

Let Kindle Read to You

You can also choose to turn on the experimental application, Text-to-Speech, which will
read aloud your books (where allowed by the rights holder), newspapers, blogs, and
personal documents. While reading a book or periodical, press the Text key ,
then use the 5-way controller to underline "turn on" for "Text-to-Speech". Press the
5-way to select "turn on". You can either listen through your Kindle's external speakers
or plug in earphones into the headphone jack. While Text-to-Speech is playing, the
screen will turn the pages automatically so you can follow along while the audio is
playing. You have the choice of hearing your content spoken with a male or female
voice and can also further optimize the listening experience by slowing down or
increasing the rate of speech.
