I suggest that whenever we download RTF files to edit, we keep them as
much as possible in RTF to minimize any subsequent format curruption/loss.

Shanon, do I keep it in rtf or save it as a Sense Word doc, or what. Will
play with it, when I go to the library later.
I do hope to get this problem, solved, smile.
Miss reading books and like doing something smile, while I read.

If you use RTF format, the page breaks will be left in tact.

Will do, as I do want to keep editing stuff for Bookshare, smile, and hate
to think how long my lovely notetaker will be out of commission, sigh.

Shelley,
Is rtf not a viable option here? Why not use that format when migrating
the
file to the Braille Sense? Have you brought this to the attention of GW
Micro tech support? If not, contact them, and they might have a solution
for
you. 260-489-3671
