Tink, Yes, you can choose to do that after you've done all your editing and so on. Generally speaking, there are the following steps in creating a DAISY title using the PRS software:
Record/import your audio (from whatever source) Edit the audio including inserting the DAISY structure, naming the section headings and levels and any page codes that are required. Inserting the Book Information Building the finished book Burning the book onto CD If you need any further help with any of this, just give me a shout.
