EasyProducer Case Study: Dolphin helps Sheffield Talking Newspapers.

Delivering a state of the art DAISY service.
Sheffield Talking Newspapers have been offering a DAISY service to their customers since February 2006. A DAISY publication (Digital Accessible Information System), is a form of electronic publication which brings together text, audio and images into a single accessible, navigable digital talking book. It contains all of the features of an audio publication but can also include the benefits of full text, allowing navigation, as well as search and find features and the ability to add bookmarks and footnotes.
Sheffield Talking Newspapers are using Dolphin’s latest Publisher authoring tool to create audio only DAISY publications, which can be played back using a range of hardware players and Dolphin’s EasyReader software DAISY player. The publications can also be played back on standard MP3 players.
Ron Westwood from Sheffield Talking Newspapers comments; "We have been extremely pleased with the response to the DAISY service. Our members really appreciate the benefits of quality, navigation and the ability to store more books on a single CD, which is offered through DAISY books. Using Dolphin’s EasePublisher, I am able to create an audio DAISY newspaper or magazine very quickly and easily. I can record the audio directly as I narrate the materials, or I can create the audio books instantly by using a high quality synthesiser. Our members can now expect to receive their audio DAISY publications almost at the same time as the hardcopy publications are available. This has never been available before."
Dolphin has a range of DAISY conversion tools and DAISY players, designed to be simple to understand and easy to use. Dolphin Producer is the latest in a range of software solutions that will instantly create full text and audio DAISY books from Word documents. Using a high quality human sounding synthesiser, which is supplied with Dolphin Producer, a DAISY book can be created at the push of a single button. Dolphin is proud that their solutions are used to offer a better quality service to DAISY customers, as well as saving publisher’s time and money in the production process.
