> I like audiobooks, but they have some limitations. Nonfiction -- for example. Figures, diagrams, photographs, ... don't translate to audio very smoothly. In a printed book, eyeballs can tell readers where the quotations, either in quotation marks or indented text blocks, start and end. But what does the audiobook narrator do with them.
New Audible audiobooks come with a PDF, and the narrator says "see figure 1 for the figure I am about to describe" or something similar. A simple fix to your problem.
