I'll check out that help file. I usually do but this time I must confess to not having read any documentation. Thanks much. Kay ----- Original Message ----- From: Alex Hall To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Friday, December 20, 2013 6:10 PM Subject: Re: reading a book share book
Yes, VDR will decompress it automatically, and a zip file lets it keep all the files that are part of the book together. It is hard to import a folder, so a zip file is the best way to do it. The app has a manual that explains everything in detail - it is the help file you'll see when you open the app. On Dec 20, 2013, at 6:50 PM, Kay Malmquist <kay.malmqu...@gmail.com> wrote: Okay, so it is better to use the zipped file and import it like that?

Voice Dream Reader is $10, not $20, and offers dozens of voices to choose from for $2 to $4 each. It can read pretty much anything, even mp3 or daisy audio books, and you can download right from Bookshare, Instapaper, Dropbox, and other sources. To get a book into the app, just download it in the app with Bookshare, or put the file you have in Dropbox and import it that way (zip it up first if it is not). You can use iTunes to transfer files to VDR, but that is the most complicated method, I think.

You can download and read bookshare books on the app with no problem. HTH.

What app is best and how to get the book in to the app? Thanks for any help with this. Kay -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VIPhone" Google Group.
