I'm looking for a text to speech solution to use in commercial and technical videos.
I've tried the Watson Text to Speech demo and it looks great.
However, I'm not looking to use it within an application but only to add speech in commercial and technical videos for our products.
Is that in any way allowed and if so, how can I purchase and use the solution ?
Thank you for your help.

Actually I was searching for a RTE which has the below features :
change tracking.
Easy Copy from MS Word
Copy from word feature is available in most of the RTE's in the market but none of them are perfect, I like to have the feature as in sharepoint blog where you can create a blog post in word then add it in sharepoint.
Is there a alternative or set of tools/steps I can use to achieve this,
Thanks.
Get in touch with Native Documents. They've been working on a web-based RTE with exactly the features you describe.
Disclosure: I have an interest in this.
I need to present Word and PDF documents in a read-only preview, via an ASPX/HTML page to my internal users. In a related requirement, I need to present editable Word documents, via ab ASPX/HTML page, to parties outside of our network - effectively the public.
We cannot rely upon Word or Adobe-type PDF plugins being available on the destination PC.
Can anyone suggest a way to do this?
Edit - For clarity, the document/data would ideally stay on our own servers.
What about using Google Docs API? You could use either their word-like doc or a form to get the data you need, and then present that internally.
Not sure if this meets all of your requirements, or is an available option.
For our company, we have a few tools that utilize Google Docs. We upload data dynamically to them for specific needs.
Based on your requirements, maybe it's best to just write your own. I haven't created a Rich Text Editor. But it looks like there are quite a few tutorials online. Here is a basic tutorial for a rich text editor. It's using javascript, HTML, & CSS. If you prefer to not use js, then you may need to look for other tutorials.
This isn't the most glamorous solution, as it looks like the users view would be HTML. I'd think you could have it updating dynamically off to the side with an actual rich text view (similar to how Stack Overflow has theirs below an answer or question being written).
Update
Over the weekend I was exploring HTML5's contenteditable attribute, I came across an editor that builds off of that called Aloha Editor. It's a WYSIWYG type editor. But if that's something that you desire for your clients, than this would probably be a pretty simple integration. I have yet to use it, but it seems like it would be a great fit - if you decide to go the route of building your own editor.
You could use the Zoho API or, if you need to keep all data on your own servers and validated clients at all times, you could try the Aspose components.
If you're interested to provide documents in a view-only way then you can try GroupDocs as well: http://groupdocs.com/. They offer viewers for different file types which you can add to your website very easily: http://groupdocs.com/apps/viewer.
Since you need to keep data on your own server, aceoffix can be one of your alternative. It is a plugin installed on your own server and save all data on your server too.
Does anybody know of a web based Rich Text Editor like TinyMCE or FCKEditor which supports realtime collaboration? I know of systems like EtherPad, but I'm interested in finding something I can embed into another application, rather than something that works standalone.
Ideally something open source, and works on the .NET platform would be great.

There are
beweevee, using .NET, but it is not open source.

While there are several all in one solutions they often tend to be a bit lacking in features. I believe this to be because building a great editor and a great collaboration infrastructure are both very difficult and require different skill sets. It's very hard to do both very well. On the other hand if you find one that meets your needs it might be the simplest approach. ProseMirror comes to mind as a good example that does it pretty well.
I prefer to take a great editor with a great API and pair it up with some real time collaboration technology. Currently Quill and CKEditor 5 are great editors that have sufficient API's to enable real time collaboration. Both of them were built with collaboration in mind. You can pair them up with a realtime back end like the Google Drive Realtime API by Google or Convergence offered by Convergence Labs (full disclosure, I am a founder at Convergence Labs). Or if you are looking for an open source alternative you can look at Together JS or ShareDB.
For a fully javascript based solution try etherpad!
There is a .NET Client example on HTTP API and a page on other examples
Also refer this jQuery demo that can be embedded into your existing solution on the .NET Platform
I am using BlazeDS and I want to visualize it in a presentation. Therefore I am searching fo a BlazeDS logo. I only find 4-5 matches on google images, like this one:
http://www.clemencanaria.co.cc/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/blazeds-logo1.png
Is this the official logo? And if yes, where could I get an image with a better resolution?
Thanks in advance!
The official logo is here:

I think is better to ask directly the product manager - his blog is here. I made a presentation about BlazeDS using the same logo as you have found, but I never thought if it's the official one or not.
I am developing a Adobe Flex Application which speeches some given text inside a text box.
Here am supposed to use an inbuilt function or something else, because I dont want to give an outside link to convert the text to speech since Internet connection will not be available.
Sample program written in Air are also applicable
Can any one post some sample code or link?
Thanks in Advance
I ported a HMM based TTS engine to Flash using the Alchemy compiler. Demos, explanation and code are here:

http://www.lvcsr.com/hts/
https://github.com/edobashira/Flite-hts_engine-for-Flash
I expect that the simplest way will be get some external executables and wrap them into Air or even rewrite in like http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/alchemy/ but look to platform you are oriented, the best choice will be MS TTS engine or something open source like Festival TTS engine.
