All. This is a bit of good news. I installed from the installer that I posted at home, on a 32-bit Windows 8 machine, and everything worked very smoothly. I also found an error in the book I opened. A tab character for some reason was embedded in the middle of the word "united". LibLouis converted it to a space, as expected. I just tabbed up to the text view, used backspace to remove the tab char, and instantly the braille was corrected. This is getting exciting even though I know there are a lot of things yet to do. Thanks everyone for the hard work on this! Keith
