Thank you for my response on this matter. I was wondering how many people
on this list have dealt with publishers's files and would this be a major
problem for blind people to do Braille transcription once they complete
their certification in the Literary Braille code.
On another topic, I noticed that Duxbury doesn't have a feature that allows
something that is in uppercase to be changed to lowercase and vice versa. I
don't think that Duxbury have the ability to create macros like you could in
either Wordperfect or Microsoft Word. What do others think?
