Hello:
I'm fairly new in this business and finding this list very informative. I
still have a lot of learning to do.
Could someone explain to me the difference between a paragraph marker and a
line break? Also, could someone tell me how to use the comp-in-line feature
in DBT?
Thanks
Don

Jean,
I'm not suggesting that anyone reformat the print document. I'm saying
that Duxbury's Word importer should optionally treat the presence of two
paragraph marks in a document as a paragraph, while considering one
paragraph mark as if it were a line break. Look at the typical Word
document, and you'll see that there are usually two paragraph marks
between paragraphs. If the importer handled this situation, it would save
us the trouble of having to remove a paragraph style and substitute a line
break in the case where there is only one paragraph mark. As it is, the
importer is already smart enough to ignore two consecutive marks, so it
wouldn't take much programming to have it make the distinction.
Alternatively, we can try to persuade everyone who produces Word documents
for brailling to press Shift-Enter for line breaks and Enter for
paragraphs. Some people will do it, but most will not even understand why
they should.
Steve
