Hi, Gary, I have noticed a similar problem or bug. I cannot import WordPerfect or DOS text document directly into KeyWord braille. I cann export a KeyWord text document directly into plain braille.
Here's the work-around: When you are importing a Word document, first import it as a KeyWord text document. Then translate the KeyWord text document into braille. If you wish to export a KeyWord text document to plain braille, first translate it into a KeyWord braille document then export the KeyWord braille document into plain braille.

Just open the document in Duxbury, save it as a BRF file, and contractions work. It would be nice however, to have a way to do this in the BN.
