Hi Alex,
Unless I'm misunderstanding what you want to do, all you need to do
is send the file to your Book Port using the transfer software. It
will be translated into text automatically, and you can listen to it
with the DoubleTalk synthesizer built into the Book Port. If you
don't want to hear that voice, there is a way using the Book Port
transfer software to have the file read with whatever speech engine
on your computer you like. If you do that, however, it will be an
audio file, not a text file, so you won't be able to verify the
spelling of a word and such. It will also take up considerably more
room in your Book Port. I've never done it, but there are
instructions in the manual. I believe you do it by setting an option
in Book Port Transfer; open the program, type Control-O, and have a
look at the dialog box. You don't need a back-translator or any
additional software; the Book Port transfer software does it all.
Cheers,
Anna
