Hi Tina,

 

I think I understand now.

 

Can I suggest you look at DBT's Global: View Preference where the
first item in that dialog is "Margin Bell Position".

 

Basically you can set this to "ping" when you reach a specific cell
number if you are entering into a braille document.  However, I do not
believe there is any way you can efficiently do this at the
pre-translated stage.

 

George.

Sorry I wasn't very clear. ;)
 
What I mean by "using every cell" is: Is there a setting in Duxbury
print that I can set so that I will be able to see when I need to
split a word or when to use or not use a contraction in the 40th cell
of each line in braille without actually having to do this in braille
document itself?
 
I was told that when you do this course or certification you need to
utilize every braille cell and I am working in print first before
translation to braille. 
 
So if I need to divide a word or split a jammed contraction (and, for,
of, ...) to use every braille cell can I do this in the duxbury print
document first before translation to the braille document? 
 
Does this make sense or am I just confusing the whole situation? ha ha
I tend to do this. :)
 
Thanks for all your help,

Hi Tina,

 

For the benefit of us who are not Nemeth experts, could you please
explain what you mean by "use every cell"?  In or on what, screen,
embosser, braille display?

 

Many thanks,

 

George.

I am doing the Nemeth course and I need to use every cell. Could you
tell me how I could do this in Duxbury?
 
Thanks,
Tina
