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!
