Dan, thanks!Are there page numbers at all? And what are the textual indicators of page breaks? I'm actually not looking for page break control codes - I didn't expect any to be in there. But I thought that when Bookshare converts an rtf to a braille file, the physical text, including the page numbers, is preserved (without control codes for page breaks). Or am I totally wrong on that?Judy s. Dan Beaver wrote:Judy,.brf files only have text. This text includes textual indicators of page breaks and the like but no actual page break control codes. You can not get those from a .brf file.I hate being the bearer of bad news. -------------------------------------------------- From: "Judy s." <cherryjam@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Friday, May 29, 2009 5:07 PM To: <bksvol-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: [bksvol-discuss] question about braille files and nfbtrans I've been doing some experimenting with translating both DAISY and .brf files back into .rtf files, as my setup for reading books works much better with the .rtf files. I use nfbtrans to back-translate the braille files into text. When I do that, I lose all the original pagination and page numbering. Can anyone explain what I'm doing wrong with nfbtrans so that I lose that information? And tell me what I can do to fix it? I'm not that familiar with using the options in nfbtrans, so take pity on me, and if you can explain it in something other than hexadecimal settings I'll be most grateful! grin On the positive side, after some experimenting I now have a word macro that takes the .txt file I create from saving a DAISY .xml file as text, and creates a .rtf file that has all the original page breaks and page numbering that were in the .xml file. smile.
