Bronwyn,

.brf files are formatted braille files.  I don't know if you are in the u.S.
but here we can get braille files from the Library of Congress web braille
program and also braille files from Book Share.  They are electronic braille
so they can be read on a device like a Braille Note or Pac Mate or any
braille display.  The BP software translates these files back into straight
text so they can be read by the Book Port.  Lou
