Hi Rhonda,

No, I don't have Duxbury on my computer; I just put a file on my thumbdrive and embossed it; just a few spacing parts were kind of off but I just have to keep working with it. I'm really excited about being able to do this because it will make so many more things available in Braille.

Hi Deborah:

Do you have Duxbury on your PC? If you don't, your documents will be text. However, it is easy to translate them to a Grade Two format. It shouldn't be garbage at all.> ----- Original Message -----

Subject: [Braillenote] Thumb Drives

Hi All,

I just bought a Sanddisk thumb drive that has 1 gigabyte of
storage. I was told that I could copy a file from the computer onto the thumb drive and then read it in the MPower. That's AWESOME to me
!!!  I know it's probably old hat to lots of people on this list
but I didn't realize it before--that really opens up a whole world of reading things in Braille!!!! I have a dumb question, but when I copy a file to the thumb drive, in order to read it in contracted Braille on the MPower, do I need to give it a name followed by ".brf" or anything, or will the file automatically be translated into Braille? I want to be sure before I do it because I don't want to copy it and get garbage on my MPower instead of Braille!!!!

Thanks again for all your help!!  In a way I feel bad because the
only time I post is to ask for help. I'm really learning a LOT from you all.

Deborah
