Hi Graham, I don't know if this will help you any, but it might. In the Translation Menu of the File Manager Menu, there is an option called "Back Translation Options". When you enter this list, the third option controls how new line markers in the Braille document are translated to text. You would want this setting to say "Leave unchanged". One of the options on this setting is to remove the markers, thus joining the words at the end of a line and the beginning of the next line together. To put the BN to the "Leave Unchanged" setting, you would press U on the BT (I don't know the QT commands, but the HELP command would probably tell you). If the option is set to "Leave Unchanged", the New Line markers should be present in your Microsoft Word document. HTH. Maria
