Books with BOOKSHARE ontheBN(7.2)
Hi, I'm not in the UK however I do get Daisy books
on CD and have
successfully copied them using my computer onto a
compact flash card to play
on my PK. So I don't see why your magazine
wouldn't work. I make a folder on
my compact flash card with the name of the book
and then copy all the files
from the CD onto the card. Then when I have
finished with the book I can use
my computer to delete the whole folder and don't
have to worry about what
files I need to delete. I find this the best way
because at the moment on my
one Gig compact flash card I have three books, so
when I want to delete a
book I just have to delete it's folder and don't
have to worry about
deleting the files for the other books.
Hope this answers your question and good luck.
From Shaz.

Dear Frank:
A DAISY file may contain just text, or both text
and recorded
audio.
So two people can use the same file differently,
say reading the
text in Braille or by listening to the recorded
audio.
DAISY files are typically created with a chapter,
section and
sub-section index or in the case of a magazine,
Major section, article, item within an article and
sub-item
within an article.
You can instantly move to say the next or previous
article, or
major section and text books are often created
with a page index,
so you can jump to a particular page at the touch
of a few
buttons.
A .brf file is just a flat file with a translation
of text into
Braille.
It has no recorded audio although some Braille
notetakers such as
the BrailleNote can successfully read it aloud
with synthesized
speech.
Hope this explains the advantages of a DAISY file.
Note that not all DAISY files contain both
recorded audio and
text. Some may be just recorded audio, others
just text.
Brian
