Tiffany and friends,
I know I am a computer illiterate but I could not manage to get to that list of
files and if finally ocurred to me to ask if maybe one needs kurzweil itself
and not the demo.
Is that possible? I still have not heard from the social worker about funding
to purchase Kurzweil and while I am trying to get a lot accomplished in
scanning and even some validating it will all be wasted energy if I cannot
change the file from kes to almost anything else recognized by my computer and
allready there or free.
On another problem. I am scanning The Tale of Genji and have finally gotten it
Kurzweil to recognize blank pages and splutters - a page with 2 or 3 letter
and nothing more - that seem to occur at odd time and in addition to the
regular pages. Now I finally got it to put both the contents list and the page
numbers list so they are on the same page but I cannot get i it to include the
sketches in any way. Any ideas?
Amy

yes, it is easy for either the origional submitter or the validater to
convert the format as long as whom ever is doing the converting has kurzweil on
their system. I do not know of any tool which could be used to convert it if
you don't own the program.
Now, asuming you have kurzweil,
1. open the desired file in kurzweil.
2. open the file menu with alt and then down arrow, or the short cut is alt F.
3. arrow down and push enter on save as, or the short cut is A.
4. type the desired file name, or, if it has been saved before you can leave
the field alone.
5. push tab once.
6. You are in a huge list of all different types of file formats, so either
arrow up and down to the one you want, or jump to the one you want with the
first letter. I.E. r for rtf.
7. push enter and wait. Kurzweil will announce when the file has been saved,
and to where.
Now, I'll also tell you that it doesn't matter even if you used the same file
name, the new file is of a different format, so the first copy of the file has
not been overwritten. You now have two copies of the book in two different
formats, so you may want to delete one of them at some point.

Dear Volunteers conversant with Kurzweil, file extensions, and Tech
helpers,
If a book is scanned with K 1000 is it possible to change the file to RTF
and submit it in the RTF format? If so, how can it be done?
Thanks in advance,
Always with love,
Lissi
