Hi Andy, when you open the document that you place the clipboard Sayed text
into it should tell you what braille grade it is formatted for. It should
either speak it to you or display it in braille. If it tells you it is in grade
one brill format, then you may wish to generate a new file in your desired
braille format. There is another method to command keysoft to make text Display
in the braille grade format you wish even though your target file may be in a
different Braille format, but I don't remember what it is offhand. Perhaps
another member can share that with you.

Hi,
My question has 2 parts.
First: I copied some newspaper articles from NFB Newsline to the clipboard.
They were in the usual Grade 2 format when I went there immediately to check
that they'd copied properly, but later when I pasted them to another folder,
the "Keysoft", clipboard file is in computer Braille. This happens
occasionally, but I can never find a pattern for it. Does anyone know why
this conversion occurs at all, and how to prevent it?
Second: How can I get the file back to a Grade-2 format? I've tried various
options for saving and file translation, and either they don't change the
Braille grade or, converting the file to a Microsoft Word, .doc, file, it's
in Grade 2 but almost all of the punctuation is removed. I can read the
articles that way, or even in computer Braille (would that be an ASCII
text?), but what I really want is just to get them back to their original
format. I've managed to do this other times when this situation happened,
but apparently can't remember how. I'd sure appreciate ay suggestions
someone can give me.
Andy
