Say it Smart Specifications 
 
String 
Name: 
  string 
Display Name: 
TTS String  
Class Name:   
com.audium.sayitsmart.plugins.AudiumSayItSmartString
 
Description 
This Say It Smart type plays back the data sent as input in Text To Speech (TTS). Even when the 
“Use Recorded Audio” checkbox is checked in Cisco CVP VoiceXML Studio, the output will be 
a TTS string containing the passed data. The input data is unmodified unless it contains 
characters not allowed in XML and the TTS content is not contained within CDATA (this occurs 
only on some supported voice browsers). These characters will then be converted to their 
escaped equivalents (for example “<” is converted to “&lt;”). 
Important Note: In Cisco CVP VoiceXML Studio and Server substitution can now be used 
within audio file names and TTS content, so one can now do with substitution what this plugin 
does. Additionally, a new Say It Smart plugin type was introduced: Custom Content, that does 
what this plugin does and more. As a result, this plugin should be considered “deprecated”. It is 
still included for backwards compatibility however eventually this plugin will no longer be 
included in Cisco CVP VoiceXML updates and it is recommended to use one of the above 
solutions instead of using this plugin.

(No Fileset)
 
audio
 
There is no fileset because this type will never involve the 
playing of pre-recorded audio files. Every Say It Smart 
plugin, though, requires at least one fileset, so this one is 
simply named “none”.
