As a followup to what I wrote below, in Kurzweil's defense, FS Reader would not open the long Daisy book that Kurzweil could not open.
Back to plan b,c, or d? Smile. Rebecca Hello Adrian, Call it determination or just stubbornness, smile, but I think I've found a work-around for determining where you are when using FS Reader. I downloaded a Daisy book from Bookshare and unzipped it. FS Reader opened it and the book was easily navigated, with links and headings, just as in a web page. There didn't seem to be page numbers at the bottom or top of pages when I used the page-down key, so I tried the go to page command, control-g. At first, I just typed in a page number and pressed enter, and after a pause, was taken there. Then, after paying a bit more attention to what I was hearing in the go to page dialogue, smile, I realized that it indeed gives you the page number of your current location-which is exactly what you wanted. So just press control-g and it will say 30, 41 of 356, for example, because the introductory pages which are numbered with Roman numbers are included in the total count. If all you want is the current page number, press escape and you're back to the text. I have to thank you for forcing me to try something new. Sometines needing to teach something is the best way to learn oneself! LOL. There have been occasions where my older version of Kurzweil could not open a very long book. I'll now have to try those with FS Reader. Initially at first glance though, FS has done a nice job with this, and it may give me access to books I could not get my ears around before. I'd even played with opening epub books, they open automatically in Edge, but I still find them cumbersome. . HTH.
