Hi Steve, and thanks for reaching out!
I'm sorry to hear that you're experiencing this issue when using the text-to-speech function. Unless the content is already in your notes section, you are correct that you'll have to copy and paste it.
Please see the steps to convert text to speech:
- Go to the Insert tab on the Storyline ribbon, click the Audio drop-down arrow, and choose Text-to-Speech.
- Select a Language from the first drop-down list.
- Choose a Voice from the second drop-down list. You can hear what a voice sounds like by selecting Preview Voice.
- Type or paste your script into the text-entry field. Or, if you want to use your slide notes as your script, select Copy from Slide Notes.
Is the formatting issue happening when translating text to a specific language or multiple languages? If you're comfortable sharing your file, I'd be happy to investigate further. You can upload it here or privately in a support case. We'll delete it from our systems once troubleshooting is complete.
