As I understand it, Keyword does not put page numbers into the
actual text of a document. That is, reading through the document
in Keyword, you won't see page numbers as you read along, unless
you've imported that file from a source which put actual page
numbers into the material you imported.
Instead, Keyword keeps track of where page numbers should be
inserted. It inserts them during the embossing process, dropping
the page numbers into the stream sent to the embosser so that
they appear where you've told Keyword you want them to appear.
It is able to do this because of the line length and page length
parameters set for the document in question. From within a
document you can set these parameters, for example, to put 27
lines on each page rather than 25, or to put 50 characters on
each line rather than 30.
With the line length and page length parameters set, you can
always see where particular text will fall by using the
space-with-dots-1-5-6 command on the BT or its QT equivalent.
But just where particular text falls on a page, or whether
particular text comes at the end of one page or the beginning of
another, will change if you edit the text by inserting or
deleting text, or by putting more or less space before and after
headings, etc. So if you care about just where particular text
falls on a page -- for example, if you want particular lines of
text to function as headers or footers and want to be sure they
will appear at the top or bottom of each page -- you need to
check each point of interest with the space-dots-1, 5 6 command
mentioned above just before embossing. If that command tells you
things aren't where you want them, you can add line breaks, hard
page breaks, and so on, until you get the results you want.
The command I've mentioned, sometimes known as the "where am I"
command, will show the page, line and column numbers for the
cursor position at the time you use the command. The page number
in that display will be accurate. But page numbers themselves
will not appear in the embossed document unless you also go to
the layout menu under the format menu and tell Keysoft that you
want braille page numbers to be embossed. Once you set that
parameter to yes, you'll be asked where you want the numbers to
appear: choices include top left, middle or right; bottom left,
middle or right. If your embossed document contains no page
numbers, it may be because the embossing of page numbers has not
been set to "yes" for that document.

I use a tiger cub. The pages are never there after embossing. I
was
wondering if someone had a way out of this problem.

Hi Andrew,
I think the numbers would be inserted only during a print or
emboss, they
don't appear in the file itself.
Regards,
Steve.

Hi all,
When the brailleNote makes new pages in a document, does it
automatically
number them? or do we have to do that ourselves?
