Did you know that your Xerox multifunction printer can transform your paper documents into audio files?
There are so many situations where listening is much more convenient than reading—for example, if you have a large document you need to work your way through, you can listen to it on the morning commute and save yourself quite a bit of time.
Whether you’re working out at the gym, driving, or simply at your desk, having the ability to listen instead of read is a huge productivity booster. And for documents where you need a rock-solid understanding of the content, listening to the document as you read is a highly effective way of focusing and retaining that information.
Let’s take a look at how this technology works:
The Xerox Audio Documents App Converts Text Documents (Including Paper) into Audio Files
The Xerox Audio Documents App, available on the Xerox App Gallery, allows you to create audio files from paper documents. The process is easy—just scan your document at the Xerox MFP. The app will send you a link over email, which contains the download of your audio file. Once you have your audio file, put it on the device you want to listen to it on, and you’re all set. As Xerox says, “Text in. Audio out.” It really is that easy!

What About Converting Documents With Non-Standard Formatting to Audio Files?
The Xerox Audio Documents App has been designed with maximum compatibility in mind. You won’t find yourself in a situation where you miss out on sections (or all) of the content you want converted, because the app is capable of accommodating a variety of “challenging” formats, such as text displayed in columns. These documents can still be interpreted by the app and converted into audio output for later listening.
The Xerox Audio Documents App is Just One of Many Ways You Can Extend the Functionality of Your Multifunction Printer
Compared to printers of the past, modern Xerox technology offers users an almost incalculable degree of flexibility and customization options.
One of the most powerful ways to extend the functionality of your printer is through the Xerox App Gallery, where you’ll find the Xerox Audio Documents App among many others—for example, you’ll find integrations for your favorite cloud storage provider, better customer support apps, and more.
