Hi Jill, It works because what you've essentially done is to resave the file using the RTF engine that Microsoft Word employs, whereas before your file was generated using whatever one Kurzweil uses. Apparently there's this slight difference in Kurzweil RTF files that only the BookShare system seems to care about.

Here is what happened. I had the To have and to hold file which I validated. I left the original name with the _'s like it came from Bookshare. When I uploaded it I received a invalid file type. So I thought it may be the _'s. From within Kurzweil I renamed the file to (To Have And To Hold.rtf) Putting the .rtf in the file name. Then attempted to upload the file again. I received an error saying it was not in the rtf format. Hmmm? I went back into Kurzweil V10.0.5 resaved the file with the above name leaving off the .rtf. IT saved and uploaded fineJ Has anyone heard of this? Could this be related to some of the uploading issues that come up now and then.

Although I have had it work once without doing this, I do it automatically now assuming that I remember because I do all of my scanning with Kurzweil. Jake or Gerald will have to tell you why this works; I sure don't know. Jill ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- No virus found in this incoming message.
