Hi Christine

Same one it's always been. Bernard Cornwell's Lord of the North. The third in a set of four. Got the first two as talking books. This one as a scanned book but the fourth one isn't even released in print yet. Due out later this year.

Hi All

It's happened!! I've got to the stage when I'm crying out for a book
that's
only in print so I've got to scan it in to be able to read it. It was
inevitable but I've put it off as long as I could. Now it's brain picking
time. I need to know how in idiot level language.

I have an Epson Perfection scanner, Fine Reader, Textbridge and the
scanner
has some OCR software with it but I'm not too sure what at this stage.
When
it's done I assume my screen reader will read it to me as it is called up
from the file containing it. This means I have to sit at the computer to
read it which is not my fave place for reading. I know there is TextAloud
but is there any other software out there that will allow me to make a
MP3,
or similar, disc to play on disc players? I don't have anything like a
Book
Courier so that avenue is closed to me.

Your help would be most appreciated as this is totally new ground to me
and
talk slowly and carefully so I have a chance of understanding please.
