Hello Jonathon, Well, Last time I tried (using some OO.o dev build, don;t recall which) under 64bit Linux, it would hang without ever getting to the first dialog. Today I downloaded a new copy of odt2Daisy 2.1 and installed it with OO.o 3.2 and dev 3.2.1m_16 under 32 bit Vista. I've started a conversation on the documentation mailing list and would like to use one list if possible, sounds like you have some experience here and I appreciated your input. Also, will be using the wiki to keep track of things as I go: http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/User:DrewJensen/daisy Best wishes, Drew > >> the idea was to see if I could convert our user manuals to daisy > format files. > > Personally, I wouldn't bother with the DAISY file format.
