Subject: [BNU] Update from Bookshare

Hi all--

I contacted Bookshare today; they said they updated to a new
Braille translation software, which takes the page numbers out
when transcribing.  They are working to resolve this and add the
numbers back in soon.

Bookshare also suggested that DAISY books will allow for better
navigation for now and have pages in them.  I've never used DAISY
on my Apex.  I really don't want/need the audio; I prefer to read
books in Braille.  Is there a way to download a DAISY book and
just get the text of a file, not the audio? (If I remember
correctly from discussion on this list, when downloaded, each
DAISY book is in its own folder with several files.) Maybe the
audio file could be deleted?

Also, are there any specific navigation commands that are
different from BRF files that I would need to know for DAISY?
Thanks for any help,

--
Kristen
