[Ohio-Talk] Using epub

[Todd Elzey]

Barbara:

I have never tried reading an epub with voice over on a mac, but I did do a
little ebook design work during a college class, and during that class one
of the things I discovered with macs is the ebooks tend to work a little
better on macs using the iBook app.  If you are trying to read the epub
without iBooks, you might try opening it in iBooks and see if voice over
works better with that app.  Hope this helps.
