Sounds like you have a table or some other special format in the
file. The bn does not like this and you should take the table
out or convert it to something else. You could also try saving
the file on the pc as .rtf (rich text format) and see if the bn
will open it.
Have a great day,
Alex

Hi All
I made changes on a document on the computer before transferring
it on the
BN. When I transferred the document, there's nothing there only
indent,
indent format marker and that's it. Yet, when I remove the
memory stick and
put it into the computer, everything is there. As far as I'm
aware I am
doing everything correctly in the translation menu. This is very
strange as
I've had no trouble before and I need these documents for work
tomorrow.
Maybe that's what it is? Maybe I am in fact missing out one
single thing in
the translation menu? With having time off work for the
holiday's, I haven't
needed to transfer documents backwards and forwards. The only
thing I have
changed on the BN is Braille from UK to USA but I have now
changed it back
to UK as I thought maybe that was the problem but no. This is
what I've been
doing:
Translation Menu
Import from which device? Press entre for file. I press entre
Import file from which drive I press space until I find hard
disc.
Directory name? press entre for slash, computer Braille is
required. I press
entre
File to import, computer Braille is required. I press space and
find the
file I want then press entre
Translate into Braille? I press Y
Destination folder name, press entre for General. I press entre
Braille document name: I type in the document in grade 2
One file imported
I go to open it and all that's in the file is indent, indent,
indent, format
marker, format marker, format marker, indent
Your help would be very much appreciated.
Thanking you in advance
