Bill, I just had a look at www.RoboBraille.org. Beverly indicated in her first message that the document was a Pub file which would indicate it was created with Microsoft Publisher. Since it is a flyer about a family reunion that is much more likely than the ePup which she said it was in her consequent email. Anyhow, Robo Braille does not allow for the conversion of Microsoft Publisher files, it is not listed in their list of supported formats.
