Hello:

I have three questions as they relate to Duxbury Version 10.6.  They
are:
1.  Is anyone embossing business cards which come in sheets, two cards
across, five down?
2.  Are there any Duxbury templates that can be used to set up these
kind of business cards for embossing Braille on them?  I have looked in
the help menu of DBT 10.6 and I do not see anything.
3.  Is there a way to change the spacing of a blank line?  Right now, a
blank line is the height of a Braille cell plus a bit more.  Here's the
problem.  With the normal line spacing, we can't line up the Braille on
the business cards so that the four lines of Braille land on the middle
of the card for all five cards going down.  While it may start on the
first card in the middle, by the time you get to the fifth card, the
Braille is either too high, going up onto the previous card or too low
where we're not getting all four lines on the card.

If anyone has any ideas on how or if we can use Duxbury to do these
sheets of cards, again two across, five down, please let me know what
the trick is.  We have three embossers: the Express 150, the Index 4 by
4, and the Emprint so if you think there's a better embosser to use, let
me know that as well.
