American Printing House for the Blind, Inc.
This disk, USB drive, or SD card provides accessible versions of these valuable study materials for students and teachers using accessible electronic equipment.
These materials are provided in a variety of file types, so they may be used with nearly any kind of computer, note taker, or book reading device.
To use the material on this medium, insert it into the appropriate port on your computer or other device. Use your device to open the list of files on the medium.
It is also possible to send the Digital Talking Book (DTB) versions of these documents to portable reading devices like APH's Braille Plus, Book Port, or other compatible DTB players like Victor Reader Stream, Plextalk™ Pocket, or BookSense™.
To open the documents on the disk or drive on a Windows PC, place the medium into the appropriate port on your PC. Normally, Windows responds with the Autorun dialog. This dialog asks if you want to open the default program or browse the contents of the disk. You may, of course, browse the disk contents if you wish, but most often you will wish to open the default program.
The default program displays a menu that offers to show the document as a web document. You should already have all the software necessary to view the web document. When you select this option, your PC opens the default web browser program (usually Internet Explorer®) and shows the book.
To use the DTB version, you need to install a Digital Talking Book Reader program. APH supplies a version of its DTB Player program, Book Wizard™, that you may use. To install this program, select the "Install DTB Player" option and follow the on-screen prompts. Note that if you do not have administrative privileges, you must contact your network administrator for the installation procedure.
Once Book Wizard Reader is installed, you may obtain instructions about its use by starting the program and selecting Help from its menu.
To use the documents on a Mac, use Finder to show the list of files, then open the appropriate ones.
