Hi there To make a transformat in TextEdit first select all your text with command a. At this point, make sure you don't press the delete key. If you do accidentally however, press command Z in a big hurry. Then press the VO keys which are control option together with the Letter min menu. Go with the right arrow to edit and go down arrow until you hear transformations submenu. Press the right arrow key and you want to go down arrow until you hear make lowercase press the return key. You will be taking back to your file so press the upper down arrow key here something to make sure that you an highlight things. This will look strange decided people, but it works okay for braille files. Regards, GG
