I would save the file as a TXT document, close document window, then, import the TXT file into Word and see what you get.

Couldn't hoit!

Subject: [duxuser] A word file problem




Hello,

Recently I was sent a word file which I imported into Duxbury
10.4.  I do not know the version of Word which was used to create
this file; however, the version of Word I use is 2003, although I
doubt that this really matters.

At any rate, DBT imported the file without difficulty; however,
when I looked at the embossed results, I noted a large number of
under-score characters (dots 4 and 6) where words in the file
were omitted.

I seem to recall a couple of years ago seeing a message stating
something to the effect that the Word program inserts
superscripted words only at the time the document is actually
printed; and thus, these words would not actually show when
viewing the Word file or when embossing such a file into braille.

Am I hallucinating again, or is my very fallible memory correctly
recalling the basis of this problem?  Also, if this is in fact
the problem, is there a fix for it?

Many thanks in advance.

Don Roberts
