While in the magazine or book on line, I do an S with spacebar.  I get the save 
file propts as to where it should go etc.  When asked for a file name, I give 
it the NLS book number or perhaps the magazine name followed by a number 
representing the various parts of the magazine with a dot brf extension.  
Always give a web braille book a dot brf extension.  When pressing enter, I 
have my dot brf file instantaneously and it is ready to read off line.  My 
braille grade is set to 2 by default.

>Hi everyone:

>Tonight I tried to save a magazine to my mPower which I received via web 
>braille through NLS.  However, when I pressed s chord, and gave it a name and 
>saved it, when I opened it, the BRF file had been turned into text, and was 
>all messed up.  So I tried again, but I tried to use back space with x after 
>the s chord, and saving the file as an HTML was my only option.

>So, what I did was just mark the beginning and end of the issue, using the 
>block commands menu, and pasted those into keyword.  I must comment here on 
>how wonderfully the mPower handled this process...  it copied about 100 pages 
>instantaneously...  unlike the classic!

>But, my question is how do those of you who use web braille handle this issue 
>if you do not wish, or are not able, to stay connected to the net while 
>reading?

>Thanks as always!

>Katie
