Hi,
Alternatively, maybe you can convince your professors that having a double space between paragraphs is not really all that bad? Is the space A typed together what causes one to be thrown somewhere else in the document? Are there other key combinations that cause that as well? I find myself confronted with the same problem, and perhaps if I know which particular key combos cause me to be thrown somewhere else in the document, I can be extra careful about those particular sequences?
Thanks, and good luck with the profs!

Hi

1.  Your not gonna like this, but if at all possible, i'd use a
computer to create a document that needs to be formatted
correctly as the translator on the bn is not that good at keeping
formatting intact.

2.  I've had that problem; it's very annoying.  Unfortunately,
there is no real way round this from what I can tell.  All i'd
suggest is to be careful when typing and check your position
every now and then.  Also, if you have a braille display, check
the position of the cursor on the braille display from time to
time.

braille note...

Hello all,

   Some questions my professors brought up recently got me
thinking.
When I export a document from braille to Microsoft Word, I think
the
formatting is just fine.  However, some of them have a problem
with the
fact that there is a two-line space  between my paragraphs.  I
don't
write the file that way in braille; it comes out that way once
it's
been translated.  Is there any way to prevent this from
happening?
    Secondly, I am an extremely fast typer.  Sometimes, while
I'm
typing, my spaces will get mixed with in.  For example, I'll end
up
hitting space with a, and moving up a line as I continue typing.
Is
there any way at all I can keep whatever I'm typing appended to
the
document, so that I won't risk jumbling everything up by
accident?

    Cheers,
  Amanda
