I tried the "Save As Daisy" plug-in for Word. Saving the book took hours... I don't know how many, I went to bed after it had been chewing on it for over an hour.

When I checked on it in the morning, I saw about 110 individual files, including 53 mp3 files and 53 smil files, and a grand total of 137MB... I wasn't expecting that!

I'd hope DAISY is more reasonably packaged than that, or how could people use it, move it on the web in limited-bandwidth pipes, etc?
