[Dtb-talk] GAO's talking book report as a DAISY DTB

[Greg Kearney]

Yes, the book should play on a Victor Reader. You will need to put  
the book onto media. So for example you would burn a CD from the ISO  
file or, if you are using USB pen drives place all the files from the  
folder that the zip drive will expand to onto the root level of the  
USB pen drive.

I have not seen or used one of the NLS players so I am giving you my  
best guess as to how to do this.

If you are using TPB Reader http://w3.wmcnet.org/dtbmaker/books/ 
TPBReader.zip then you will want to use the zip file which will  
expand to a direcctory on your hard drive. You will then open the  
ncc.html file in that directory.
