Dear Terry,

A few web braille books are brailled with both print and braille page numbers. The print page numbers appear like this 1, a1, b1, c1. This is because a print page usually takes more than one braille page. So, if a story began on print page a1, you would search for a1, dot 1, dots 3,4,5,6 dot 1.

My post said if you want to read such a book with speech and have the print page numbers sound right, you would have to add a letter sign before the page numbers like this dots 5,6, dot 1, dots 3,4,5,6, dot 1.

Teri;
This is a responce from an old e-mail of yours. I have had trouble finding
pages on my first book.  I put p and number sign and the uppercase number.
Sometimes it would find a number such as that number in the contence, but
not as a page.  I am reading Chicken soup for the soul.  How does this
relate to your message below. How can you put a page number in as a letter.
Do you mean upper case?

Another comment. If you use speech only to read a textbook formatted book, you will have to edit the page numbers by adding letter signs to a1, a2, b3,
c4, and so on, because the speech will read them wrong.

That's why I like to use KeyWord instead of the bookreader, so I can make
sure everything is pronounced as right as possible.

But there is a limit on how many entries you can add to the pronunciation
dictionary.  PDI should expand this limit or make it limitless.

I usually read with braille, but if I'm sick or just feel lazy, I like to
use speech.
