[Athen] Does anyone have this book in PDF? Or anything but an ePub??

[Kamran Rasul]

Unless I am misunderstanding the email chain, Kurzweil opens for both desktop and universal library epub formatted materials.

It is true lack of proper page numbering can be an issue and no images either.

Hi,

You know that Kurzweil has an EPUB reader for the Mac. Have they released the one for Windows?

Unfortunately, George, all of these formats need a ton of work on our end to be converted to what the student needs to work with.  The ePub doesn't have page numbers and it also cannot be read by Kurzweil.  The Word version has no images and no workable table of contents or index (kind of important for this kind of book). The student is not blind so Braille and Daisy are not appropriate either.

I only ever ask for a PDF when I need one, and in this case, I need one. Publisher is only providing an ePub, which does not meet this student's needs.

This is in the Bookshare collection, so I believe you could get it in Word, MP3, BRF, DAISY, and of course EPUB.
