Hi,
Sorry for the misunderstanding!
That is a question for the fine folks at APH, I've never experienced
that one before.
Good luck.

Hi Rich, I was speaking specifically of a book which we had purchased
from 
APH, Verbal View of Windows XP.  This CD contains all of the MP3 files, 
plus, as far as I can tell, BRF and HTML files as well.
This is why I was unsure as to whether it was possible to copy both the 
audio and the other supporting files simultaneously.
Thanks.

I am basing my response on what you've written, but in order to be
certain that my answer makes sense, I need to ask a question.
How do you know that the Daisy files in question contain both text and
audio?
The majority of the Daisy files currently being produced in the United
States  are either text or audio, but not both.  For example, the files
available from Bookshare are text only, while the files available from
RFB&D are audio only.
Therefore, in most instances, you are either going to get text or audio
and not both.

Hi, just a quick question regarding which files to transfer when
transfering
a DAISY book.  I had initially thought that if you transfered the OPF
file
to the bookport, the spoken audio plus the HTM or BRF file would also be

transfered automatically.
I find that only the spoken audio files are transfered, without the
accompanying BRF or other supported files.

Must they be done in a separate transfer?
Thanks a lot.
