Your suggestion is good, and they could save it as a Word file, a Daisy file, a
Braille file, and if she could get a copy of Kurzweil1000 she could take the
*.KES file back into Kurzweil1000 and send the file directly from Kurzweil to
the Book Port.

Hi Jeannette and list:
Get them to save it to something like text, which then can easily be
transferred onto the bookport. That also gets us back around to what I thought
the subject of this list was?
Cheers,
Dave

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!
