I would just use the pc or just send in books you want scanned i mean actual copies and when they are added to the collection after being scanned and validated, then you can read them. I think bookshare is always open to donations either money or real books. T he only way I know of with the vAlidation page is with a pc cuxz the hbooks at first to me look like a rar zipform then when you open them you can save to your cf card in my case anyway, and validate then save from your card back to your pc. I don't know of another way to do it. Are you on a bookshare list"? If so maybe someone there can help suggest something unless you have access to a pc somewhere else where you can get the book on your card after that the bn should be okay with it. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Regina alvarado" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Braillenote List" <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, December 11, 2005 4:41 PM Subject: re: [Braillenote] downloading from bookshare validation page
> Hello all: > > anyone here a volunteer for Bookshare? If so, can you describe to me how to download a book from the validation page? I have not yet been successful with this. The BN acts as if it is downloading but I cannot find the book. It never asks where I want the book placed or in what folder. I am wondering if this happens because these books are only zipped. If this is the case, I know the way to unzip, but how do I work around the fact that it won't download. (maybe I am stuck here and will still need to use my PC?) Thanks in advance for any help with this. > > Another question I have is on the upgrade. Jonathan wrote that we would be able to write on the braille keyboard and have it come out on the computer, (maybe I misunderstood?) Anyway, if this is the case, will it matter into what application is used? Since Duxbury translation would be used, there would need to be a spell check performed once the document was finished from the PC, correct? > > Reggie > > ___ > To leave the BrailleNote list, send a blank message to > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > To view the list archives or change your preferences, visit > http://list.humanware.com/mailman/listinfo/braillenote >
