I think the DAISY book does take up more space. In order for the navigation to be robust, almost every single page has to be a file.

I'm not really sure what's so great about using a daisy book; sure, it may have navigation features; however, it stil uses doubletalk and I find using the brf format just as easy. But, I agree- this should be sorted out for those who prefer daisy; I'm curious, what was bigger in terms of that there
book? The brf or daisy
one?
thanks
Have a good day from Tyler C. Wood!
