Thanks George.
That's a good idea about a braille PDF equivalent. But now I know how to work
with what I need to do. Much thanks.

Hi Jean,
Your BrailleNote will not store information about file formatting. (One of
the reasons I would like to see the equivalent in braille of a PDF file, as a
PBF or Portable Braille File)
You will need to go to DBT's Global Menu, and select "Formatted Braille
Importer" where you can specify lines per page and characters per line.
George.

Okay. I'm working through my course on DBT and it's going great. But I need
to ask a question for which I haven't had experience yet.
I want to create a braille document on my BrailleNote using the formatted
.BRF format. I don't have a spare serial cable to emboss directly from the BN,
so I intend to move the file to the PC and emboss directly through Duxbury.
So, I open the braille file and choose emboss. That's easy. But will the
paper size and characters per line and lines per page, etc. in the BRF file be
preserved automatically, or do I need to change anything with the embosser
setup in DBT? I assume what I have set in the original BRF file will be
honoured.
Jean
