[Dtb-talk] DAISY Pipeline and Word add-in Installation Issues

[Peter Donahue]

Hello Greg and listers,

    I thought you would weigh in on this one. I know you're a MAC user, but
do you have any idea of why I'm having trouble getting the MS Word add-in to
install? I figured it couldn't hurt to ask. Thanks for the help.

    Also I downloaded the JAWS Scripts for the DAISY Pipeline and ended up
with a corrupt script set. If someone is willing to share a set of JAWS
Scripts with me that are good that too will be appreciated. Thanks or your
help.

Peter Donahue

Peter;

The paths section of the DAISY Pipeline preferences will let you
specify what encoder you wish to use so you don't have to use Lame if
you don't want to.
