Jack, If a document was last saved with DBT 10.5, then document settings do appear in the .dxb file. If it was last saved with DBT 10.4 or earlier, then they do not. The document settings that are stored in a .dxb file are exactly analagous to what you see in the Document, Embosser setup dialog: cells per line, lines per page, top margin, binding margin, interpoint on/off, interline print on/off, a *name* (but no description) of the targeted paper size, and a *name* (but no description) of the targeted embosser. - Peter -----Original Message----- From: duxhelp-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:duxhelp-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Jack Maartman Sent: Wednesday, March 16, 2005 1:43 PM To: duxhelp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [duxhelp] Re: Embosser setup woes Hi Peter: Can you help me understand this. There is a strong possibility that I can make my 40-cell braille display emulate anything, as I have both printed to file and printed directly to the device, using an 8-mb file--well as you know I am a megalomaniac in my spare time. To give myself a bit more credit, I have designed large reference works in a single file that allow me to access any part of the book with a single-keystroke. gMy first question is whether, document settings actually appear in some form in the .dxb file, asuming one could decompile it and find it in the code. If not is there a separate file created to store document settings. In otherwords, if embossing a series of documents under one embosser, different from what is in global settings, do I have to configure each document, or can I use the settings from a previous document. Embosser set-up has been a challenge for everyone, and usually, when I set up to do a task, I forget what I have learned because I have no need to practice. As I have no deadlines, I should be able to explore this systematically, but I need some directives.
