[Electronics-talk] accessible books

[Drew Hunthausen]

Anna,
Do you have a disabled students survices helping you with translating the
books? For me I always had my texts in RTF format as it reads great on the
Braille Sense as well as the computer but also keeps the formatting and
structure of the original text. When I first started college I had my text
books in txt format but discovered that I lost all formatting when the text
was translated. Hope this helps

Subject: [Electronics-talk] accessible books

I am wondering what format my college books need to be in in order for me to
be able to use JAWS to read them and also use my Braille sense to read them.
I am going to take Spanish and Chemistry and anthropology in the spring and
want to have access in audio and braille.  But I don't know if there is a
specific way the books have to be scanned or put into a certain format for
me to access them on the comp and the braille sense.
Thanks for your help.

Anna
