Hi Jeff,

Sounds like you may have to experiment with the jfw braille settings.  

You  might try going into the basic settings for jfw, locate the braille 
options, and check the braille mode option.   There are 3 choices, structured, 
line, and 
speech box.  The default is structured, and I'm not sure if this is also the 
default within word or not.  Anyway, it almost sounds like you're in line mode 
for 
braille, but that's just a guess.  What I'm suggesting is that you might want 
to experiment with these 3 modes to see which works best for you.  

I'm not sure if this is a global setting for all applicaitons when you're 
running jfw or if you can set it differently for each application.  

I hope this will help you at least a little.

Don

Hello Friends:

I've had to use smaller Braille displays such as Power Braille 40 and
BrailleNote 32.  When I pull up a MS-Word document, I see only relatively
few letters on the left margin of the document - in other words I mean that
more than half of the left side of Braille display is blank.  This sure
makes reading stuff quite tedious.

Is there a way that we can make the Word documents show up starting from the
first Braille cell for the first letter of each line, please.

Many thanks in advance.

Jeffs
