The way I get around this problem, though I suspect it really isn't a problem is to save in keyword as I work on a file and then "export" to a text file later. Though I strongly suspect, that the page breaks and markers are there, just not being red. MS Word loves to remove them. Try it in Notepad and see if the spaces are still there. Shelley L.

Hey people, I have a question for those that also use the braille note. When I open a text file (txt) with the braille note, I can open and read just fine if I make it open by line, but whatever I seem to do, it seems to seriously screw up the format when I close it. When I open on the computer later, it seems as if all the line breaks and new lines just went *poof.* What do I have to set to retain the formatting? Thanks.
