[NFBCS] Reading Kindle Books

[dan.tevelde at comcast.net]

Leslie,

I haven't used the pc Kindle app but I have read books with my iPhone and
several Braille displays. In order to work with a Braille display, Kindle
books need to support certain features including page flip, and extended
typesetting. There may be some other options. If those options aren't
enabled then you won't be able to read the book in Braille. There is
probably documentation on the Amazon website about what options a book needs
to have to read Braille as well as a list of supported Braille displays.

Subject: [NFBCS] Reading Kindle Books

Hello:

This semester I need to purchase a couple of Kindle books for one of my
classes. One of them is on Audible. I don't mind listening, but I would like
to be able to read the books on a Braille display as well. How do Kindle
books work with the latest version of Jaws? Does the Kindle app work better
on the PC or iPhone? Any information is appreciated. Thanks.
