George, I forgot to tell you that when I was going to just save the file and
start in Duxbury, I was told that I had to configure Duxbury in order to
import the file.  Something like that.  So that's why I started out in Word.
I haven't had any problems except with the first pattern  I tried, though,
so I just keep going to Word first and then to Duxbury.

Okay, George; here's a link for you.  Scroll down the page a little and
you'll see:  click here for free knitting patterns ... then there are a
bunch of patterns for dish cloths.

The one I originally had problems with was the Alabama dish cloth as
there were several files, which I didn't realize until later ... Enjoy!!

Hi Deborah,

I'm afraid knitting isn't really something I've ever studied, and so I
really have really no idea what a knitting pattern looks like.

Could you perhaps give me a URL so that I can look at a few examples on
the Internet please?

George.

Hi George,

Okay, I'm confused.  I got some knitting patterns from the Internet and
it's listed html.  I thought I could just use Duxbury--cut and
paste--but it was a mess.  I got lots of interesting things including
the greater-than and less-than words.  So I did the next one by going to
Word first.  Then I had to copy and paste it into Duxbury.  But reading
your response causes me to ask:  are you saying that I can take a html
file and go to Duxbury, apply the compu codes and the file will
translate without all the extraneous info?

And maybe it's my lack of sleep that's the problem here.

Thanks,

Confused in rainy Carolina

Hi Karina,

The likes of HTML code should be translated in Computer Braille.

If it is a block of text on its own, so to speak, highlight the text
concerned and apply the DBT Style "compdisplay."

It it is HTML text within a sentence such as "<p>" for example,
highlight the HTML and apply the "compinline" Style.  This ensures that
your normal text is translated using literary rules, and the HTML using
Computer Braille Code.

George.

Hi List Members,

I have some HTML code that I need to translate into Braille.  There's a
quite a bit that appears in one block.  However, when I translate it
using English (British) - literary no capitals the words are written out
as in greater than and less than etc.  When I have seen it done before
less than has oppeared as an ow and greater than an o.  Is this correct
notation, and if so, how do I get Duxbury to use this format?
Thanks.
Karina
