EricOpenBook will also readd daisy files, and Freedom Scientific also had a daisy file reader available, but I am not sure they have it now. If they do have it, it will be available for download as a trial version from their web site.

Yes, you can do that, but I don't really find the screen reader relaxing for leisure reading and Doubletalk is not acceptable for very much at all, whichis why it is so disappointing the new BP will continue using it. Sending the TXT file as an audible file is a bit better, but takes more time. That is it works if you have some decent voices.I never knew what the Book Wizzard was about because I just now joined BookShare. I am definitely going to explore it.

I used to read it on my computer that way all the time. Can't the book port read .txt files?
