I did not know you could do all that with Kurzweil but this sounds even better than rtf if those darn black spaces (quite large in some areas) can be eliminated and/or explained though that might be more confusing than not.

I might even convert it to kes while I worked on it so it could keep my place. You can then use the notes feature to mark places you need help with or have questions about, and you can access the notes easily but they won't actually appear in the text. Reading this may be a big challenge, but it's definitely something worthwhile for the collection. Kellie
