Re: trying to read a google book with NVDA and firefox but am not having much luck

Hello:
Why don't you try to find this book on one of the accessible books website such as Book Share or any other web site that sells books for those of us who have disabilities issues and need publications in accessible formats?
Hope you can find your book in an accessible form!

Hey guys,

What format is the book you're trying to buy/read?

because most Google books are in pdf images only, and can't be read by a screen reader without being run through an ocr programme first.

I don't now whether that's the case, but this is what happened to me, and I had to ask for refund.

hth, ciao,
Ollie

Hi Sean.
Are you able to tell me how to find the link to buy the book? After I log in to my google account, which link do I click on? I find the web site very confusing.
Thanks.

Well you need to buy the book then you should download adobe digital addition and download the adx file.
after that you run this file in digital additions, go to the documents folder and find the resulting epub file.
Then use codex from jamesscholes.net to convert it to something readable and or remove the drm.
You will also need an updated calibre engin to handle the conversion.
Over that thats all you need.

I read it for free?
