I'm still looking, and I may be wrong, but I don't think html works in email. This is what it says about books: The BrailleNote PK supports books in brf or txt formats. At time of publishing, the BrailleNote PK does not support DAISY or HTML formats. If you download a book in an unsupported format, KeyBook will allow you to unpack it, but before the process is complete, it will prompt to say that the format is not available. I am looking further.
