Lissi,

Don't worry about it.  I've never paid any attention to what happens
colorwise, but I suspect that the color attributes in the RTF files are
stripped when converting to DAISY. Whether they are or not, the tools should
handle them just fine.

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Doeas background matter?

Dear Booksharian Friends,

To be safe, before I upload one of the darkest, misery filled mysteries I've

ever read, a British one that is touted to be funny and capable of shocking 
the unshockable, I have a question.3 sections of text in the cover 
information
have white print on black background. After Exploring the menus, and 
experimenting, I haven't been able to tell Microsoft Word 2003 with Jaws how

to convert these sections to match the rest of the book. It sounds fine, so 
does it matter? Do you think the tools wwill be confused?

My hunch is that the answer to this question is no, and that I can upload 
the RTF file as it is, a superior scan carefully validated, but I'd rather 
ask than risk snagging this book on a technicality.

In case you are interested in reading it, The book is The Dying of the Light

by Michael Dibdin, author of the Aurelio Zen mysteries. It's cleverly 
conceived and written so you may feel as if you were seeing it as a play. 
It's only 150 pages long. The first half creeped me out and then I thought I

deserved to kick myself for being amused by the last half. The plot twists 
are definitely inventive in this bizarre, take on a British country mansion 
who done it. Be warned, it isn't cozy!

Thanks for your suggestions.

Always with love,

Lissi
