BookPort: Can one go to a specific page?

2006-05-03 Thread Michael Lang
I get DAISY books which contain page markerss. I read, that one can
skip from page to page in such titles with the BookPort. Can one also
enter the number of a page, to which the player then skips?

Thanks

RE: BookPort: Can one go to a specific page?

Hi Michael,

This is what the BP manual says about the topic.

Page Number

The menu's Page Number option serves two purposes. First, it informs you of
the current page number. Second, it lets you move to another page in the
current
book. To move to another page, press the 5 key to select the Page Number
menu option, then use the numbers on the keypad to type in the number of the
desired
page. Finally, press the # key to complete your request or press the * key
to cancel. When you press #, Book Port will either move to the desired page
or it will beep if you entered a page number that is not valid for the
current book. Note that the Page Number function accepts only Arabic
numbers, so
if you want to turn to a page at the beginning of a book that occurs before
page 1, you will have to go to page 1 then use the Back Page key to move
exactly
to the desired page.

Be aware that not all books you send to Book Port contain page number
information. In the case of a file that does not contain any page
information, Book
Port uses an approximation to represent pages.

The Page Number feature is a particularly useful command, and you may wish
to take advantage of the fact that Book Port remembers the menu option you
last
used, so you may simply press the 0 key to access the menu and have the page
number immediately accessible.

So, to answer your question, Yes you can.
