Today I saw a post for Pied, a solution to install Piper and get it working with Speech Dispatcher. I gave it a try, and now the Viewer Read-aloud feature works perfectly for me. And I got several very pleasant voices. (Note, this is Beta, but I have had no problems.)
If other Linux users want to try it:

I would like to show you my gratitude to you and just Thank you for making this up. It is so helpful, words can't explain it.
As a new bie, I have just one question, how to change the speed? caliber doesn't allow that. (or it's just not working)
