David,
You don't need to know a lot of codes to change a print page number. If
your document is set to use reference page numbers, Alt + enter and type
the page number + space and the page number will be inserted. If you want
to change a print page number, View Codes and then you can just change the
number.

And that's my big problem with ?Duxbury. It requires users to be familiar
with codes. It needs to be more user friendly - you need to change the
reference page number, you should be able to highlight it, change it, and
move on. Having to insert a code to make a correction takes too much time
and thought, and knowledge of code. We transcribers have enough to deal
with in transcribing braille to have to also learn codes for the software
we use. Braille 2000 is user friendly and lets you highlight page numbers,
change them, and move on. it lets you make changes, more like a word
processor. Duxbury needs to learn from Braille 2000 and make their program
more of a word processor so we can worry about translation and not
processing.

Hi Sarah,
I’ve figured out how to do this. If you are working directly in DBT, here
are the codes you need.
[lea][i]v
The [lea] code says it is a print page number. The [i] suppresses the
letter sign.
You can also apply the reference page number by using the keystroke of
Alt-Enter.
So, the easiest way to insert these codes is to:
1. Type your page number, for example, v
2. Position the cursor in front of the page number, and press Control-Left
Bracket to insert a code.
3. Enter i and tab to okay.
4. Press Alt-Enter to make it a print reference page number.
Hope this works for you. Shout out if you have problems.
Jean

*Subject:* [duxuser] Continuation preliminary pages in UEB
Please forgive me if this is a basic question, but I’m having some trouble
with continuation page numbers using the UEB template (DBT 12.1 SR1).
According to my transcribing instructor, the continuation pages for print
page v should be “av” and “bv” without a grade 1 indicator before the v,
but Duxbury inserts a Grade 1 indicator anyway. Is there a way I can
manually change this so I can pass my class?
Thanks! :)
Sarah
