Hi John.
We agree about a "preview" of some kind. We also haven't ruled out putting the
page and line breaks back in there at some point. It is just that, for the time
being, they add complication to an already complicated procedure. If we can get
all the editing and indexing to work right without them and know that it is
right then we can work on other
issues from a stable foundation. At least that's our logic.

Brandon,
Let's take this discussion back to the list, so others know what is going on
and can contribute.
I can change the code. I think we should have a Braille preview, which will
show formatting and pagination and either produce an embosser-ready file or
call an embosser driver. Preferences.cfg could remain the same and any changes
for particular situations could be made through the configSettings parameter.
However, I'm not going to argue the point.
John
