That makes sense. I'm experimenting with the html file outputted by the daisy format to see if I can change the heading levels. Think I did it but bookport transfer software is complaining, so I'll try again.

I think that the answer is that the manual is written in HTML (the text
version is a byproduct and isn't what gets put on your BP). If a heading
is a level 1 heading, it becomes a section; if it's a level 2, 3, or
anything else other than a level 1, it's a subsection. This is what I've
figured out from looking at the source HTML file.

Thanks. Just out of curiosity, how did you design the manual so that
the
main sections are the chapters and the subsections are the proper
subsections. I see there is a text file, so does that mean we can
create
files the same way? It looks like there is no way to specify that a
certain
section marker should be considered a subsection while another one could
be
a main section. Is that possible?

Unfortunately, these are set up as if all the files will eventually be
combined into a volume and each section will be a day, so now, you
have 
to use sub-section to move from item to item.

I guess I was under the impression that I could move through bookshare

periodicals with the main sections being the main sections of the
paper 
and
the subsections being the article names, but that doesn't seem to be
the
case.  I'm transferring the daisy file, the .opt file I believe it is.
Is
that the correct file or was I mistaken?  I'd like to skip over the
money
section in usa today, for example, and move right to the next main
section 1
and 4 and three and six don't seem to work as intended.  What am I
missing?
