■　中文書專用特色（Chinese book specific features）

①　新的圖章型中文專用控制界面：印泥紅框，內含四個帶藍字半透明按鈕，分別控制橫豎、線框、簡繁、字體的轉換；圖章本身可以自由拖動

②　橫排與豎排的雙向轉換：原本為橫排設計的書也可以豎排（直排）讀

③　豎排線框：有線框為仿古線裝書風格，格調優雅；無線框為仿今平装書風格，格調簡約

④　簡體字與繁體字的雙向轉換：一個簡體字可能對應多個繁體字（正體字），正確轉換需要看前文後理。新算法再次提高了分析前文後理的能力，簡繁轉換的準確率繼續遠遠領先於同類軟件

⑤　內置三套優質字體（明體、楷體、黑體）：可以在同一本書裡混合使用，例如一般文字為明體，標題為黑體，而引文或韻文（如詩詞歌賦等）為楷體，讓版面更美觀、更好讀

⑥　控制界面自動適應橫排與豎排：跳頁滑桿、書頁底部顯示閱讀進度幼線、翻頁手勢等的前進後退方向都一起隨橫排豎排的切換而變

⑦　中文書與外文書各自一套排版參數設定，互不干擾：比如中文書用楷體，對應行距要較大；外文書則用 Georgia，對應行距可較小。

⑧　自動產生多字體混編書：內置的碧瑪版《西遊記》示範了如何以空格符號去標記韻文或引文，以微小的增量編輯成本，得到超值的排版效果

⑨　支持讀者勘誤「好讀網站UPDB格式」書的整個流程：①下載書本　②發現錯謬，提出更正，並製作勘誤表　③上傳勘誤表
