Good Morning George & Paul,
Thank you very much for your excellent clarifications regarding comp-display
and compinline.

Hello Eileen. Transcribers use the CompDisplay. Style when they want to produce
computer program source code. They use the CompInLine. Style if they want to
include email or web addresses in their documents. The CompDisplay. Style
inserts the following codes in your document before the text that is in the
compdisplay. Style.
[sc1:0] This code causes a line to be skipped if the line above the code is not
blank.
[ptys1] This code starts the Poetry mode and sets the run over position to 1.
[cb] This code causes DBT to start Computer Braille translation.
[wb-cb] This code tells DBT to use the Computer Braille Code continuation
character.
It inserts the following codes in your document after the text that is in the
Compdisplay. Style.
[wb] This code causes DBT to use normal word breaking.
[ptye] This code stops the Poetry mode and disables the run over.
[tx] This code tells DBT to do normal translation.
[sc1:0] This code tells DBT to skip a line if the line above the style is not
blank.
Now, to answer your question. You will have to import your document again, then
regenerate your table of contents. Your formatting should not change but the
page numbers will because more braille fits on a page when you don’t use the
CompDisplay style. Generating a table of contents is an automatic process if
you marked up your document with headings. You can either generate it in
Microsoft word before importing it into DBT or generate it after you import the
document. If you want Braille page numbers, you need to generate your contents
after importing your document.

George and All:
I checked my Word .Doc and yes, you knew it. somehow in the text of my document
the Currier New font was set in the area of text that was printing strangely.
Now, I have one other question, I’m leary to re-translate the .doc into another
.dBX file, because I’m not relishing having to do all the other formatting and
re-generating the TOC. Is there a way to correct the problem in the already
translated file that will keep my page numbering as is? Thanks again.
Eileen

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.

Subject: [duxuser] Comp Display Question.
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
