1、1-voice reading, means TTSUU will use only one selected voice when exporting entire text to audio file. This option is usually used when the entire text is composed in one same language. Example: Chinese novel, English article, Japanese news, etc.
2、2-voices reading, means TTSUU will use two selected voices when exporting extire text to audio file. This option is very useful when making bilingual audio materials. Example: students can use this feature to make bilingual audio materials like Chinese and English, Chinese and Japanese, English and French, etc. Bilingual structure includes uup-down structure and left-right structure.
top-down structure, means newline is the separator between text that written in two different languages. Example: previous sentence is written in English, and after a newline the next sentence is written in Chinese. There is no limits on length of the sentence, and it doesn't matter whether there is any blankline between two sentences as below.(Listen to the sample voice)

3、Separator, means a uniqe identifier in sentence with left-right structure (it can be a single character like * ,it can be a self-defined string like <|>), and TTSUU uses it to separate two different parts of a sentence. It no need to indicate a separator if the left-part and the right-part are written in ANSI and Unicode separately (Example: English+Chinese, Chinese+English, English+Japanese, Japanese+English), and TTSUU will deal with it automatically. Otherwise, need to indicate the separator if both left-part or both right-part are written in ANSI or Unicode (Example: Chinese+Chinese, Chinese+Japanese, Simplified Chinese+Traditional Chinese, English+French).
