If you plan to translate a Word document into braille using Duxbury and your
PC, you can bring the document straight into DBT. Then, you can translate
it into braille and save it as a .brf file so you could read it on your
braille note.
For some unknown reason, DBT interprets all .txt documents as poetry.

I would open the document in MS word, select all the text, and copy it to
the clipboard. Then I would open a blank notepad document and paste the
clipboard into that. Save that document as a text file and you should be
good to go. If you have Duxbury you could translate the document into
Braille on the PC, or you could use the BN to do this through the file
manager.

Hi, Sarah,
I tend to use my flash cards for back-up more than anything. At the moment
the document is on my PC and will be transferred to a flash card. I
actually want a copy stripped of all formatting because all I need is the
words; furthermore, I want to make a grade 2 Braille file out of it for
faster reading because I will be using my BN during practice and
performance. Thanks.
Cordially,
Evelyn

Why not just read it on the flash card itself? I almost never read things
on my flash disk, that gets saved for Email and address list stuff.
Is this document on your PC, or did you receive it directly on your
BrailleNote?
Sorry I forgot to ask that earlier.

Hi,
Yes, I think I will need more than that. I don't have time to deal with it
at the moment but will let you know. I intend first to have it on a flash
card as backup, but I need to know what to do with it when I put it on the
flash disc. Thanks.
