Hi:
It's not supposed to be compatible. Files that are sent to the Book Port have
to be filtered, so it would have to go through our software to work on the Book
Port. Although there are similarities, they're not exact.
There are versions of the bible available from Bookshare that work well with
the Book Port. They have them in both Daisy and BRF.
Hope that helps.
Pamela

Subject: [bookport] Book Port and Book Courier File Format Compatibility
Hi! This is from the Book Port Newbie!
Are e-text files that have been formatted and transferred with the
respective Book Port or Book Courier software compatible with each other?
i am asking because the good folks at Springer have preformatted a
couple Bible translations for their patrons that allow book courier
users to copy these directly to their BC and then navigate the Bible
Text by book, chapter and verse.
I was wondering if I could use those preformatted texts on my BP. If
this is not possible, do any preformatted bible texts exist for the
BP to give similar functionality and navigability or how would I need
to format and mark a Bible Text to be able to navigate it by book,
chapter and verse. I do own a Bible Courier but would like to be able
to put several different Bible translations on my BP for portable
reading and study.
Thanks much.
