[bcab] Re: daisy production tools

Yes we do plan to convert the Get to grips with courses to DAISY and we plan
to use the Dolphin Producer. It does what we want, quickly and easily.
Other systems may have more features but we do not need the full
functionality of a professional DAISY production system. 


Cheers,

Subject: [bcab] daisy production tools

I'm considering producing some training materials for IT in the daisy
format, and wondered if anyone on this list has experience of using any of
the daisy production tools. Are bcab intending to convert the "get to grips"
series to daisy format? If so have they decided on a production tool?

I've had a quick play with eclipsewriter, dolphin producer, and the online
version of dtbmaker. Of these three only dolphin producer treats sentences
as phrases for navigation purposes, the others go to the next paragraph,
which isn't what you want for training materials.
