Hi,

 

I think we're at cross purposes here.  He wants to convert text to MP3.
That is neither expensive nor difficult.  As I said, Ballabolka will do it.

 

All the best

 

Steve

As far as I am aware only Dragon provide the capacity to take recorded
content and convert it to Text. This is obviously not a free option so it
might well be easier and cheaper to source the book from an alternative
source.

 

I have found that the existence of a perfect mp3 version is useful as a back
up for scanned versions of books.

Like you I prefer the option to study with text versions.  For example I
scanned Anna Lawson's book on Discrimination Law  from the British
Library  but also  got the RNIB Daisy  version  as well. It did not matter
then so much if the scan produced occasional incomprehensible results as I
could consult the Daisy/mp3 version in that event.

Hello

 

I have a technical book in MP3 audio format. It would be more convenient to
me for t his to be in text format. Is this possible, and if so how would I
do it please?
