Hi, you can do this on the BrailleNote itself, however as this is off topic,
please write to me privately and I'll attempt to show you how. Thanks in
advance.

Subject: Translating Braille to Text

Hello All:

I have a friend that has an older Braille Note which she cannot afford to
upgrade.  She is a JAWS user.  She's got close to 100 books in Braille
format (.brf) which she would like to get back translated to text files so
she can listen to them.

I know Duxbury will do this, but it costs around $600 I think.  Does anyone
know of other programs that one can get to back translate these files?

Thanks,
