[nabs-l] Textbook Help

[Teal Bloodworth]

ok ashley. This semester i am working with txtbooks from the publishers 
which are in text format or ABC=XIP  files. Adobe and jaws 10 work fine 
since jaws 10 can read PDF. Also if you have a stream or other book reader 
that will read text you are set. I have found though that it is much easier 
to keep the text document on the computer and manually find what you are 
looking for.

Also HEY Stacey...I miss you so call me sometime!
