Change your embosser settings for 30 25 and save the file as a BRF. BRF is
universal and can be used by several translation softwares and then who ever
embosses can set their embosser for 30 25.

Hi everyone,
I have a question for everyone. I have been transcribing the Braille Edition
of the 2004 National Federation of the Blind Deaf-Blind Division Agenda that
will be printed on both types of Braille paper.
The default format, is set for 40 characters per line with 25 lines per page
and is saved as a formatted .brf format after translating the file. I want to
take the same Duxbury file and translate it using the smaller paper for
embossing. Do I have to go into the Braille printer settings to change it for
the 30 characters per line with 25 lines per page? I don't know what printer or
whether it will be printed on both sides of the page. I want to set this up as
a standard format so no matter what printer is used whether it be interprint or
single-sided or whether it's the wide or narrow paper that it would be set up
for that. I don't know what Braille translation will be set up and whether the
agency at Colorado Center for the Blind uses Duxbury. I am assuming that they
use that program since I am trying very hard to comply with NLS standards and
following the BANA codes for formatting. It is my understanding that there is
no standard format for setting up a format for agendas especially for a
national convention such as National Federation of the Blind in Atlanta,
Georgia from June 29 through July 5, 2004. Next year our convention will be
back in Louisville, Kentucky at the Galt House.
I look forward to hearing from everyone soon.
