Speaking of those predetermined lines per page or characters per line in
dbt 10.5, the dialog says desired in global, but who in the world could
fit 27 lines on an 11 inch page length? Or, 34 characters on a narrow
page?

Hi George,
The limit is set by the ELT file. It is another of the annoying things
about embosser selection in 10.5 that you cannot overide the default
maximums. I have modified the ELT file for Christine.

Hi Christine,
You can only get 29 lines on a 12 inch deep page single-sided,
but not when embossing double-sided. The offset of the second side just
won't fit the page.
However, you may be able "fiddle" it, by reducing the line
spacing on the Index itself via the "Braille, Line Spacing" menu. I
believe the default is 10, so try reducing it down one level.
George.

Subject: [duxuser] Page length in DBT
I am using an Index Everest embosser model 3. I am also using
DBT10.5.
I wish to produce a page of braille which must be 29 lines deep.
I am using 12-inch paper.
I cannot get DBT to accept more than 28 lines to a page. I have
also tried setting my embosser page length to greater than 12-inch
(300mm) but still I cannot get the 29 lines.
I have tried changing the global menu embosser settings but they
will not hold and keep reverting back to the 28 lines.
I have also tried by causing a formfeed from the embosser on
longer than 12-inch paper but to no avail.
I understand that I must have 29 lines showing in the document
menu and atleast 29 lines showing in the global menu.
Any help to solve my problem is much needed and will be
greatfully appreciated
Kind regards
Christine Simpson
