Hi
If it is an RNIB Daisy book you may be lucky and find tht there is a text file
in the structure. I have found this with a few RNIB Daisies.

Dear Jamie,
many thanks for this. a while ago, RNIB sent me the way how to do it, because
the file is for me only, therefore there is no copy rights issue. However, I
will give it a go. many thanks for this.

Hello Muhammad,
I'm assuming that this is a full text DAISY book that you want to
convert to a Word format, rather than a Type 2 DAISY book which is a
structured audio book with audio only? There are actually 6 types of
DAISY book but the most common are Type 2 - structured audio and Type
4 - structured full text and audio.
If so, what I would suggest is that you have a look at the structure
of the book folder. If it is a full-text book, there should be a
bunch of HTML files in this folder. Broadly speaking, you should be
able to open these files and copy and paste the contents into a single
or multiple Word documents and create your Word versions that way.
However, first I should make mention of the copyright issue. I think
you need to be careful on this score, especially mentioning it on list!!

Secondly, there may be various copy protections built into the book
which prevents you doing what I mention above.
Lastly, depending on how the book was put together, you may need to
open multiple files to copy them one at a time e.g. one per chapter
would be quite common, so it might take a while.
It's been some time since I messed with DAISY books but I hope this helps.
