Hello:

First, by way of introduction, my name is Ray Campbell, and I operate
the Adaptive Technology Help Desk at the Chicago Lighthouse for People
Who Are Blind or Visually Impaired.  Our service is available to anyone
who is blind or visually impaired if they have technology questions or
issues they need help with.  The phone number and e-mail address are at
the bottom of this message.

Now my question.  I took a call this morning from someone who is running
OpenBook Version 7.0 and she has a Romeo Attache embosser connected via
USB to her computer.  She wants to emboss directly from OpenBook.

She pulled up an existing document and then I had her go to file->emboss
from OpenBook.  She then tabbed over to properties and pressed enter.
We selected Romeo as the embosser, set the cells per line to 31, lines
per page to 25 and top margin in lines to 1.  We ran into a problem when
we needed to select which port to use because the only ports listed were
com1, com2, com3, lpt1, lpt2, lpt3 and Windows Device.  None of these
worked.  Has anyone successfully embossed from OpenBook Version 7.0 with
the Romeo Attache and if so, how did you set things up?  The Romeo was
on-line.

Thanks,



Ray Campbell, Help Desk Technician
