You can convert your books to text, but there are some real advantages of =
sending them as a DTB, mainly additional navigation, and, as Rob mentions, =
you need Book Wizard to do that. It should have been installed by =
default.

Book Wizard Reader is not optional if you plan to send Digital Talking =3D
Books.

Hi Larry,
When I tried sending the new york time .opf file, I got the following
message.
Book Port Transfer
Unable to send Digital Talking Books.
Book Wizard Reader is not installed.
OK Cancel
Dump question but do I really have to install the Book Wizard Reader? I
never really used it before. I normally would convert my books into text
form and send it to the book port.
Eddie

No, you just send the .opf file.

Port?
Thanks,
