Subject: Question ...

Good day -

-- I am searching for some guidance for preparing simple text documents for
the best use of Text-to-Speech reader software.

-- Simple things such as the best way (character possibly) to break
"sections" of a single document. Then possibly sub-sections also. So these
all make sense when read aloud.

-- I am considering simple HTML with very simple Cascading Style Sheet
instructions. But I am also planning just plain text documents as well.

-- The example I can think of right now is - the text description of a bus
route with the stops along a route and the "main" 
stops. This would have several main sections for say East and Westbound.
Then it would have several sub-sections for variations in the route.

-- Any direction you can provide is apprectiated.
