You can associate an approximate reading time value to a text, and in such way have a counter that tells you how long it takes to pronounce specific text.

This makes sense for radio, TV and similar publishing.

Reading time counter is available only in Web interface.

To configure reading time, see MinRate and MaxRate values in the GlobalConfig.xml configuration file.

  <!--

    Parameters used by the system to estimate the reading time of a text

 

    MinRate-      Integer

      Minimum reading rate in characters per minute

 

    MaxRate

      Integer

      Maximum reading rate in characters per minute

 

    If either rate is not specified they are assumed to be both the same
