You lost me....I am just trying to figure out how to scan in my books, and
then be able to read them. I have now figured out how to scan them into the
computer with Kurzweil. And, the voice there is a step up from my JAWS...so
for now, i think it will work for me, It jsut takes a lot of time to do.
