Hi George, 

I know for a fact that I have in various places in my .doc “Currier New” set as 
the font for HTTP addresses, but then I after those web addresses set the font 
back to Callibrie Light.  I was always under the impression that to get a web 
address to print correctly in DBT I had to in Word give the address the Currier 
New font.  I will look again at the area where the last set of font changes are 
and try to determine what the problem is.  Can you explain to me what the 
comp-display is or does?  Or at least a brief overview if its too detailed to 
explain?

Thanks for your help.

Eileen

Hi Eileen,

 

Tricky to be exact without seeing the original Word file.

 

However my initial suspicion is that there may be a courier font used in some 
places in the Word file, and DBT’s Global:  Word importer may be set to 
automatically apply computer braille.

 

Take a look at DBT’s Global, Word Importer and if the first item, “Transcribe 
Courier to CBC” is checked, uncheck it and re-import the Word file.

 

George.

Hi All, 

 

I have a Word .doc file that I brought into DBT 11.2 It’s a large file and I am 
not sure about something Jaws is reading to me on the DBT screen that makes me 
think I’m going to get a lot of unwanted and weird underline characters if I 
finish printing the second volume of my Braille file.  When I checked the 
reveal codes in DBT I am seeing/hearing Jaws say “comp-display.”  What is the 
comp-display and what will it do?  Should I delete it out?  I’m trying to avoid 
having to re-format  this file since I have a table of contents that I don’t 
want to throw out of sequence.  Any ideas on how to fix it?

 

I think it may also have at this point switched to computer Braille since 
numbers do not have the # (dots 3-4-5-6) before numbers.  Thanks.

 

Eileen
