Linda,

If you started with a BRF file, you don't want to translate it with Control-T. By doing that, you will generate a print file, and pressing Control-E will not emboss it. The simplest thing to do is to open the BRF file in Duxbury and press Control-E to emboss it. Try it, and let me know if you still have trouble.

Subject: [duxuser] BRF File Isn't Brailing




Hi Duxusers:

I am attempting to braille a book from bookshare using a BRF File. I have no transcribing experience but when I went to college here in Kansas, my rehab counselor and the disability resources person expected me to braille my own books. Therefore, I was given a Juliet Pro60. Then it was impossible to do but with "braille ready formatted" files shouldn't I be able to braille a book and read it? I opened Duxbury, went into my documents and selected my book, copied it to my clipboard, went back to duxbury, pasted the file into duxbury, typed control+t, turned on the embosser and typed control+e. Nothing happened and now Miss Juliet is sitting in "low power mode. Would someone help me figure out what I did wrong and help me solve this problem please? Thank you.

Lynda
