Hi Frank,
You are indeed correct. The Every Day files are also text and audio. The
BC doesn't at present support the text part of Daisy, but I believe the
Every Day which is from Torch Trust, fails Daisy validation on some counts.
I think there will be a few books like this one coming along, publishers are
not in my view, careful enough about their Daisy production, and tend to
rush it out. For example, I recently got an RNIB talking book. When I put
it in a seasoned hardware Daisy player, it said the title of the book is
"This is an RNIB Talking Book". I rest my case.
All the best

Hi, Andrew!
I got the same problem with an RNIB book. Pesumably they're not doing the
Daisy files correctly.
At 18:40 13/02/05, Andrew Roberts typed furiously:
