Hi Jamie and All,

I didn't know that, and didn't mean to tell you something wrong.

Blessings,

Linda

Hello Jamie,
You should be able to download the book as a daisy file to your
BrailleNote Touch and read it in braille using the Victor Reader app.
I actually did this the other day with a textbook that I read for
school and I was able to read it using the braille display. Using the
Go-read app, I logged into Bookshare and downloaded the book I wanted.
The book had then been placed in my $vrdtb folder and I was able to go
to the Victor Reader app to read it.
Hope that helps

Hello, all,

I plan to download a Bookshare title that I want to read in braille. I
assume that I need to download the braille format file rather than the DAISY
file, but I wanted to make sure. I am guessing that DAISY text books cannot
be read using the braille display in the Victor app, but I would love to be
wrong about that.

Thanks in advance for all help offered.
