Someone would have to open those files in Kurzweil and save them as text files 
like Pam said or save them as brf files. That would also work. That's how I 
send my docs to the bp.

  Subject: [bookport] kurzweil woes!


  Okay so I'm a dork.  I know it.  But I never use kurzweil.  I don't own the 
software myself because I'm poor and cheap, and usually I just grab stuff from 
bookshare.  However, I got a bunch of books scanned in the copy center where I 
work (a small college) and they handed me a cd for each scanned book.  When I 
plug it into my laptop, it comes up as a .kes software extension.  I can't open 
that with anything and it won't transfer to bookport.  I don't know if they 
used the wrong scanning software (I'm one of the first blindies to request 
services in a few eons I'm told) and I know nothing about kurzweil to save my 
own ass. 

  I've read the manual a few times and I'm sure I'm missing something because 
everyone I know loves loves loves kurzweil.  Does anyone have any idea what I 
should do, save google?  If I google one more thing today I might have to gnaw 
on my arm. 

  I'm all bookported out!
