Hello Lora,
I was browsing the FS website and came across an issue that I reallced you
were having trouble with. It deals with what FS calls "continuous braille
mode." You were having a problem where PacMate was ignoring line breaks.
Here is the information on it: (this applies to FSEdit)
. Use Continuous Braille mode when layout and formatting are not important
to you, such as when reading an e-book. Continuous Braille mode ignores
hard carriage returns within a paragraph. It shows the carriage
return as a blank space and continues the flow of text instead of
leaving the remainder of the braille display blank. To turn on
Continuous Braille mode with a QX, press CTRL+R. With a BX, use
DOTS
1-2-3-5 CHORD. (Bookshare.org users should remember that a
free utility to unpack Bookshare books on the PAC Mate can be downloaded
from the Freedom Scientific Web site at:
http://www.freedomscientific.com/
fs_products/PACmate_BookShare_Unpack.asp.)
Wasallam,
Munawar A. Bijani
Are you certain you will awaken from bed tomorrow?
Never assume something of which you lack strong knowledge.

Lora,
I can help you with the first question, but not with the second.
Open a document in FS Edit, hit F1 and go to Tools, Options, then File
Operations and check off the file types that you want to open in FS Edit
instead of Pocket Word.
I have no idea currently about the second question, since my Pac Mate always
takes a new line after every hard return. If I find a solution, I'll let
you know if someone else hasn't written here first.
Evan
