I am basing my response on what you've written, but in order to be
certain that my answer makes sense, I need to ask a question.
How do you know that the Daisy files in question contain both text and
audio?
The majority of the Daisy files currently being produced in the United
States  are either text or audio, but not both.  For example, the files
available from Bookshare are text only, while the files available from
RFB&D are audio only.  
Therefore, in most instances, you are either going to get text or audio
and not both.

Subject: [bookport] Transfering Daisy Books


Hi, just a quick question regarding which files to transfer when
transfering 
a DAISY book.  I had initially thought that if you transfered the OPF
file 
to the bookport, the spoken audio plus the HTM or BRF file would also be

transfered automatically.
I find that only the spoken audio files are transfered, without the 
accompanying BRF or other supported files.

Must they be done in a separate transfer?
Thanks a lot.
