  Speech balloon - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Speech balloons (also speech bubbles or word balloons) are a graphic convention used in comic books, strips, and cartoons to allow words (and much less often, pictures) to be understood as representing the speech or thoughts of a given character in the comic.
Some American comics have used a speech bubble without any tail whatsoever to indicate that the location and identity of the speaker are nondescript or part of a large crowd.
It consists of a large, cloud-like bubble containing the text of the thought, which is connected to the area next to a character by a chain of increasingly smaller circular bubbles.

Although the speech engine software such as TruVoice is easy to obtain and install, of itself it does not generate speech for you, but requires some other program to do this.
It can then be programmed to write the output from the speech engine to an audio file which can then be downloaded from the server to the user who has requested it.
Microsoft Agent provides a way of overcoming this limitation, and which allows the user to write dialogs which do not require the use of sound files but generate the sound directly form the TTS engine, and hence are not limited in terms of the length of the dialog.

It would be very helpful to have an option to have the speech bubble set the way you want them in the theme when they export.
It is very time consuming to reset every speech bubble, especially when the preview window is sooooo tiny you can hardly see what you are going to get.
It is also hard to control the box placement, so if you want a consisten placement you have to try each time to line it up and that's very difficult.
