Book Port does not recognize that extension.  Since you don't have
Kurzweil, you will need that file as a Text file in Wordpad and then
send that file to the Book Port.

Okay so I'm a dork.  I know it.  But I never use kurzweil.  I don't own
the
software myself because I'm poor and cheap, and usually I just grab
stuff
from bookshare.  However, I got a bunch of books scanned in the copy
center
where I work (a small college) and they handed me a cd for each
scanned
book.  When I plug it into my laptop, it comes up as a .kes software
extension.  I can't open that with anything and it won't transfer to
bookport.  I don't know if they used the wrong scanning software (I'm
one of
the first blindies to request services in a few eons I'm told) and I
know
nothing about kurzweil to save my own ass.

I've read the manual a few times and I'm sure I'm missing something
because
everyone I know loves loves loves kurzweil.  Does anyone have any idea
what
I should do, save google?  If I google one more thing today I might
have to
gnaw on my arm.

I'm all bookported out!
