I have an OS X Yosemite version 10.10.2 iMac (27-inch, Late 1013) Processor 3.4 GHz Intel Core i5
Memory 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3 Desktop computer
I am wondering how to have the computer read text aloud. I'm proofing contract language and was hoping the computer could read text and I could follow on a paper copy to proof.
Can this iMac do that?

First you need to enable the setting in System Preferences > Dictation & Speech > Text to Speech > "Speak selected text when the key is pressed". You will see that the default key sequence is Option & Escape, which you can change. With the setting enabled, select the document and then press the Option and Esc keys. The Mac should now start speaking the selected document.

Hi, how do I do this with the MACBOOK PRO 2017?
System Preferences/Accessibility/Speech.
How do I have the computer read text to me?
