hello and welcome. Keysoft can translate between braille and
text easily. There are two ways to translate. number 1. go
into the file manager menu and select "translate between braille
and text." When you select this option, the BRAILLENOTE will ask
you to select a drive, folder name, and file name. If at any
point you don't know what to do, press space with h and the
BRAILLENOTE will give you appropriate help messages. Once you
have selected a file, the translation process begins. Depending
on the size of the file the process could take anywhere from a
few seconds to a few minutes. Usually the BRAILLENOTE knows what
type of file is being translated. If it does not know, it will
ask you. If progress tones are on, you will hear a tone every
second until translation is complete. After the translation has
completed, you will have two files. The original file, and the
translated file. Number 2. This is much easier than the first
method. Using keyword, open the text file you wish to translate.
When you open a text file using keyword, the BRAILLENOTE will ask
if you want to review the options. At this point, type y for
yes. When you do this, a list opens up. There are some options
that you can overlook. Amongst those options, however, is the
option "translate into braille?" Type y for yes and exit the
list. At this point, the translation process begins. When the
file has been translated, you will be placed in the
newly-translated file. When you exit this file, the BRAILLENOTE
will notify you that the document has been translated into
braille. Then it will ask you if you wish to save it as a
keyword file. If you say "yes," it will ask you for a new file
name, or offer you the current name. When you either type a file
name or accept the current name, after a moment, you are out of
the document. Hope this helps. Don't hesitate to ask for more
help. I would be happy to assist!
