Hi
You can convert a braille file into a number of file formats. Do this by pressing space-i when pointing to the file in the files menu. I think from here you can choose the file format you want and press confirm.

Before I send this device back for maintenance, I want to know if there is a way to make a Braille file in to a word document that can then be read on my computer. Before I go very far in typing on to the computer a really long list, I'd like to know if I am doing a lot of work unnecessarily. Let me know if I can in any way convert a Braille file in to a document, I do have microsoft word and open book on my computer. Thanks so much.
