How to stop Reader View Narrator from pausing after each new line?

Hi,

The narrator feature on the Reader View works great but there is one thing that is bothering me a lot. Every time it jumps to the next line it will pause and break the reading flow. This is bad because it makes the audio harder to be understood since the narration wont be as fluent as it could be.

Is there a way to stop these end line pauses?

Thank you so much.

PS: If this isn't currently possible, can I add a feature request for this?

Hi, while it is open you can customize the speech and speed from left panel.

Please check your Windows Settings for Narrator as that is what Firefox is using. So set that up in Settings --> Time & Language --> Speech (note if am not correct sorry as updated to the Win10 Spring Update yesterday)

Note fyi : Windows Spring Update out April 30th so back up stuff you want to save to another drive. https://www.windowscentral.com/microsoft-announces-windows-10-april-2018-update use Media Creation Tool to update or you can wait till it gets to you.

So with the above if you feel it maybe a Windows issue after exploring the settings might try updating.

Please let us know if this solved your issue or if need further assistance.
