Hi there Khalid:

You cannot make the bn translate on the fly between contracted and uncontracted 
braille, as you can between uncontracted and contracted braille.  However, you 
can do the following, and voila! have grade 1 files on your unit.  BTW, good 
job Riana with coming up with that idea!!!

Khalid, assuming you already have a .brf file stored somewhere on your unit, do 
the following:
1.  From the main menu, press f to enter the file menu and t to enter the 
translation menu.
2.  The third option on this menu reads "translate between braille and text".  
Hit spacebar three times to come to this option, and press enter.  This means 
that if you select a text file, the bn will translate it to braille, and if you 
select a braille file, the bn will translate it to text.
3.  You will then be asked for a source folder name, meaning the folder where 
the document you wish to be translated currently is.  If need be, hit backspace 
to select the correct drive, and select the proper folder.
4.  Next, select the .brf file you wish to be translated.  You will be prompted 
for a foldername for the translated file, so, again, if you wish the file to be 
placed on a different drive, hit backspace and make your selection.  Select the 
foldername and give the file a new name, and hit enter.  You will hear a series 
of beeps, depending on how large the file is, and finally "translation 
complete."

You can now go back into keyword and erase the .brf file, since you now have 
two copies of the file on your machine.  Keep in mind that Riana is right, 
these aren't grade I braille files, but text files, not that it makes much 
difference.  However, the formatting in the new file most likely will be 
slightly off.  HTH, and happy reading! Laura
