Hello Chris, and all,

Firstly, thanks for the update, Chris.

Secondly, apologies for the out-of-date information. I'm still on Sib3 with
Sibelius Speaking and the Dolet plug-in. I sort of knew that Dancing Dots
had not been supporting later versions of Sibelius, but I didn't realise
that you could no longer get Sibelius Speaking, though I guess this makes
sense. I will check out the website you mentioned.

Many thanks,
Brian.

You can't get Sibelius 3 anymore, the current version is 6!
Forgive me if I'm speaking out of turn here, but Dancing Dots 
haven't supported Sibelius Speaking for years.

There is a project to make Sibelius 5.25 accessible, and it's free! 
After doing things in version 5.25 in conjunction with Sibelius 
Access, you can then load your score into Sibelius 6 and take 
advantage of it's "magnetic layout' features, which automatically 
fix spacing problems and help your work appear a lot better on paper.

www.musicaccess.co.uk/

is the site for Sibelius Access and there's a mailing list you can 
join to ask questions.

Sibelius Access is the work of one guy, and really, you should 
consider donating a little cash to the project if you feel it is 
useful to you.  He's doing this on his own time.

Chris
