<p class="MsoNormal">Hello Heidi,<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Bookshare books are surprisingly easy to convert to Text Only. Here’s a quick how-to…<o:p></o:p></p>

</span></span><![endif]>Breathe easy<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">XML file contains the full text, often with Images, with some rich text formatting and pages indicated. XML usually contains styles too, but I don’t think that is included in the Bookshare XML.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I have noticed that newer versions of Mac OS X have had compatibility issues with Bookshare software. Read:OutLoud hasn’t run successfully for me in almost a year on Macs. This is the best method I have discovered for working around that
issue, and still using Bookshare content with those students.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Hope this helps!<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoPlainText">Hi all,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">This semester we've had several students who are needing text-only DAISY so that they can access DAISY on their Android devices. Is anyone out there converting to text-only DAISY? We've been in contact with Bookshare and they use the
Save As DAISY plug-in for Word. But we aren't having any luck getting that to work.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">Anyone have any ideas??<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">Thanks in advance!!<o:p></o:p></p>
