Sandy:

Can I upgrade my mPower? If so, I am thinking that may help the situation.
Thanks.

Hi Reggie,

 

Since this is brief, I'm going to respond here.  I have a BrailleNote Apex,
and it reads RTF files.  I wonder, if you upgraded your software (I know
there are upgrades for all the BrailleNotes out now) if it might have that
capability.

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Anyone have a BrailleNote? Question!

 

Does anyone here have a BrailleNote they use for reading?  I have a question
about file types.  You are welcome to contact me off list about this if you
wish since this is not a BrailleNote list.  Here is my question:

 

I download a book to proof or read, (most concerned with those I am
proofing).  It is in RTF, of course.  I cannot open that RTF file after
transferring it to my BrailleNote.  In order for me to read and proof, I
need to first change the file to a .doc file, transfer it and read it from
the BN and then reverse the process so I can format.  I am using Word 2003,
Windows-XP.  My brailleNote is an MPower build 22 I think.  It is an older
machine anyway.  I am trying to open in Keyword.  

 

If anyone can help me with this, I would be extremely grateful! It would
save me some steps and possible consequences I think would not happen, but
sometimes things are lost when changing a file from one type to another.  So
far this has been working with nothing returned, but I would rather proof in
RTF.  Thanks.

Reggie
