I have tried the same procedure with a series of files in English braille
litterary using the supplied template. I always get the same result. I
checked the printer configuration dialogue in dbt, and the default is also
to print to file. I will try to configure another embosser under document
embosser configuration, to see if this helps. The old beta runs seemlessly.
I am dubious about the possibility of the conflict having them both on the
same machine. I'm beginning to think more and more it's a glitch in our
10.6 beta.
Cheers
Jack.
P.S. This is not a serious problem, as all I've ever had to do is to import
a file into a text editor and remove form-feeds and linefeeds.
