Trim Track Title Function

This feature is located in the collapsible menu in the Track Names section on the Set Play Order Page.

The trim feature is useful if there are extra numbers or punctuation before all the track names. For example, if the files are 01_Title Page, 02_Copyright, etc. you would only need to trim the first 3 characters from these track names to make it DAISY compatible.

To do this:

  • Enter the number in the text box for Number of Leading Characters to the number of characters you wish to trim from the track titles
  • Select trim
  • A pop up dialogue box will appear that reads: This will delete (# characters) from the beginning of each track name. Do you want to continue?
  • Select Ok to continue
  • Select Cancel to cancel the trim

In our example, we would set this number to 3 and then all the tracks would be renamed to Title Page, Copyright Page, etc.

Here is a short tutorial on How to Use the Trim Feature.
