Hi Jim,
Actually I was asking about reading the paper online. I just find it
easier for me to do that than to use the daisy player, but I guess I
should really try the daisy option to see if it's any different than the
one mailed out via email every day.
Using the online approach is just easier and I find also faster for me.
It's really nice to have so many choices though.
Don

Hi Don,
I've been having Newsline Email my papers to me. I go to attachments,
press backspace with A to select all, press enter and these daisy
files are downloaded to the downloads folder. I then go to that
folder, select all then press enter with X to have them go to
clipboard. I then select my new folder and press spacebar with V to
move files to my new folder.
When all that is done, I go to Daisy player. The front switch is on
Daisy. I select folder where paper now is and press enter. I'm in
the paper. I press spacebar with dot five to go from section to
section, article to article. I haven't found a way to navigate
individual words for spelling or see just the headlines or titles of
articles to select what I want to read and press enter on it. I find
just pressing spacebar with dot five gives me what I want presently.
I'm certain there should be better techniques I'm missing! I'm happy
I'm reading the paper and one can read on line or by email just fine
with the VS.
Jim

Has anyone else used the new site for the nfb newsline online? You
need
to be signed up for newsline to use this.
Anyway, they now have a service where you can read a newspaper and/or
articles online.
It works really well with the sense notetakers and I actually find it
much easier to use than the downloaded versions of the papers.
One question though. When you click on an article and the page
loads,
the actual start of the article is below a large group of links. You
can do a search on a key word in the article headline and jump to it,
but I haven't found a way to jump to the start of an article from the
top of the page which will always work. There seems to be no table
marker or heading for the article itself.
Has anyone found a way to jump directly to an article content from
the
top of the loaded page?
Thanks,
Don
