You should not have saved it as a brf file. You need to save it as it is with a .bks extension. Then you go into the book reader and unpack it that way. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Lisa Ehlers" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, February 04, 2005 9:21 PM Subject: [Braillenote] unpacking bookshare book
> Hi Listers, > Okay I emailed Bookshare tech schpport and something had to be fixed in the database so I happily downloaded my book. Except I cannot read it. I downloaded it as a brf file. I named the file with a brf extension like I do with the Web Braille books. Does the book still have to be unzipped if it is a brf file and why? This just seems not to make sense. If it is a brf file and the Bn support brf files then why must they need to be unifped? Web Braille files don't have to be unzipped and they are also brf. I guess I should redownload the book? I put the book in my books folder. When I go to read it the BN says bookshare.org > > I'd email Bookshare tech support but I'm not sure they'd know how to help me. I looked at the directions in the user guide and I guess I need to redownload the book and rename its extension? I just don't get it if ! BN support brf files shouldn't they be called brf files? I'm able to log in easier now my email address is being recognized and I was finally able to change my password. > Now if I could just read the book I downloaded to see if Bookshare really is okay or not. > Thanks! > Lisa > > > ___ > To leave the BrailleNote list, send a blank message to > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > To view the list archives or change your preferences, visit > http://list.pulsedata.com/mailman/listinfo/braillenote > >
