Dearest Prashanth, I tried save As DAISY. It was successfully translated in to a XML document. But, when I tried to open the XML file, It gave me an error message. "the XML file cannot view using the style sheet" so, I would be grateful to you if you send me the regarded documentations. Thanks in advance, Ashoka.
