But did you re-import the .brf file?

It may well be that there’s nothing you can do.  Perhaps the creator of the 
file messed up in the first place by setting too narrow a page width?

Hello George and lis:

When embossing formatted books from Bookshare I am quite sure that you go to 
the formatted fraille importer and check the box to read without interpretation.
Please confirm.

Jim

If you go to DBT’s Global Menu, and select “Formatted Braille Importer”, what 
does it indicate there for characters and lines?

I have a book from Bookshare, with the embosser set up like this: Wide paper, 
11 inches long, 37 cells wide, 25 lines long, left margin set at 3, right 
margin set at 0.

When I open the document it says that ‘page set exceeded.’

When I view the brf doc, the lines of braille are very short, about 17 cells 
wide. The code shows ‘return line’ commands. I can go through the document and 
change that, but isn’t there an easier way?

In fact when I emboss it, there are random spaces between words, and because of 
the spaces, it reads incorrectly(his becomes 8, etc).

Suggestions?
