Hello Shannon, I being a Bookshare user only read these files with saphari from time to time. When I interract with the html content, I can see the contents of the book. But for the most part, I use my VR Stream. I usually never have seen such an option to save such books as texts. I thought I'd try and help in this manner by telling you my experience only. I've always been wondering about an app that will let me read Daisy books from Bookshare for the Mac, but haven't found or heard of much development to date. Hope this helps you with something. Take care and God bless!
