Hi,

Yes, that's where the setting is that lets you read by section instead of by 
page.

Cheers,
Anna

Scott,
I seem to remember that there was something in the visual settings that needed 
to be changed but can't remember what that might be.
Do you have any idea?

Hi Stacey.
Go in to a book and then select the navigation option.Under the
navigation heading, you should see that section is selected If not,
double tap/use space with 3-6 to do this.

Hi Anna,

If things haven't improved as far as reading Braille is concerned, I probably 
won't purchase Voice Dream Reader just yet, but if there are other people on 
list who are using it to read Braille, maybe they can tell us if the Braille 
reading experience has gotten any better.  Thanks so much for sharing your 
experience!

Re: Reading Braille Books With Bookshare on iOS Devices

2013-08-02 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
Hi,

I tried reading with a braille display and Voice Dream Reader a couple of 
months ago, and it didn't work well. When I got to the end of the text on a 
screen, I could back up a line and use the Next Screen command the way I do in 
iBooks, but the last two or so lines from the previous page would appear at the 
top, so there was repetition every time I switched screens, and each screen was 
short, so it was bad for reading braille. It's nice for reading with 
synthesized speech, though, and it's possible that reading with braille has 
improved since; there have been at least a couple of updates since then.

Best,
Anna

Hi.

I tried using Voice Dream reader. I couldn't get it to work as well as I want. 
I had some difficulties to go to the next page.

Re: Reading Braille Books With Bookshare on iOS Devices

2013-08-01 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
Hi,

I routinely read with my braille display using Read2Go. As long as I set it to 
read by section, I only have to change sections between chapters; within a 
chapter, the reading is continuous. You search for and download books within 
the app. It downloads the DAISY version, so you have access to any navigation 
built into the book, but the text is displayed in Grade 2, just as other text 
on the iPHone is. Occasionally a book is marked up oddly, so that each chapter 
title is considered its own section, so you have to move to the next section to 
read the title and do that again to start reading the chapter, but most of the 
time, it works fine.

Best,
Anna

Hi Desi.

When you download books from Bookshare using the Read2Go app, you can

biggest difference between reading a book with speech and reading it
with braille access is that you cannot get the braille display to keep

Honestly, I've taken to using iBooks or the Kindle app for my braille
reading. Each has it's own process of transferring Bookshare content
in to your chosen app, but both provide a nicer reading experience in

One app I have yet to try is Voice Dream reader. It apparently works

Hi Desi.
You just can't get rid of me. (smiles).
When you download books from Bookshare using the Read2Go app, you can
read with either the text to speech or your braille display. The
biggest difference between reading a book with speech and reading it
with braille access is that you cannot get the braille display to keep
scrolling. You have to either activate the next page or next section
button when you run out of space. Space with O will not work on
read2go. Also, once you go to the next section or page, you will need
to hit space with dot 1 to go back in to the text of the book.
Honestly, I've taken to using iBooks or the Kindle app for my braille
reading. Each has it's own process of transferring Bookshare content
in to your chosen app, but both provide a nicer reading experience in
my opinion.
One app I have yet to try is Voice Dream reader. It apparently works
with braille, but has some issues. I will leave that one up to someone
else with more experience to cover if they can.
