[nabs-l] problem with Bookshare on braillenote apex

[Karl Martin Adam]

Carlos, we don't have access to your e-mail to write you off 
list.  Downloading is really easy.  I've never worked with DAISY 
because the files are so large, but as far as BRF, just click the 
download button on the website and you'll be asked what directory 
to put the file in.  Then after it's done downloading go into the 
file manager and either use the unzip utility or go into browse 
files.  Either way, go to where the zip file you've downloaded 
is, and press enter on the file.  It will ask you some things 
like what directory you want to unpack the file into and whether 
you want to delete the zip file once it's unpacked.  Also, it 
will ask you for a password, but bookshare files aren't password 
protected, so just press enter.  Once you're done, you will have 
a BRF file you can read.  Bookshare allows you to set the grade 
of braille and display size you want to read on, so set these to 
fit with the model Braillenote you're using.  I like to set files 
to grade one because when I read them with speech it works better 
because it doesn't have to deal with ambiguous contractions.

Good morning my name is Carlos Montas.  I was wondering if 
someone could write to me off list and walk me through the steps 
of using bookshare on the Braille note?   In terms of downloading 
and also I would like to know which format is better brf or the 
daisy format?  I appreciate  the help. May you all have a great 
Sunday.
