Hi, Lisa,

What you need to do is go to the ink-print  translation settings.  Go to the
ink-print translation options list.    The first question is "What type of
boundary is used in the source document?"  The source document is referring
to the braille document.  You can use normal braille rules for paragraphs,
that is a new line and two spaces. You should make sure "indented or blank
line" is chosen.  To get the paragraphs to translate as a new line with
indent 5, cycle through the options until you come to "paragraph format".
Enter the new line symbol and press the space bar 5 times.  If your tabs for
print documents are set to 5, you could enter the tab symbol instead of
spacing 5 times.  (I have a QT keyboard, so I can't give you specific
commands here.)
Now for the line spacing and page numbers.  Go to the "ink-print settings
menu".  Go to the "layout option.  Go to line spacing and change it to
double.  The next question is "print page numbers" change it to yes.  The
"page number position" comes next.  The default is bottom center.  If that
doesn't suit you, change the position of the page number to whatever you
want.  You do this by typing two letters.  The first letter will be b for
bottom or t for top.  The second  letter shows the position of the page
number--c for center, r for right l for left.  Confirm the changes and exit
the "ink-print translation settings" menu.

To know how many pages you have done in print, you will need to translate
the document into print.  Press the query cursor position command when you
are at the bottom of the document and you'll know how many print pages you
have written so far.

When you translate a document, it's best to use the file manager menu
instead of the save as command.  The save as command doesn't show the
correct print margins.

I hope this isn't too confusing.

Subject: [Braillenote] will this work


: Hello Listers,
: I need feedback on this please ASAP.  I have a paper to write for my Guam
history class.  I was wondering if this would work.  I would like to create
the paper in a Keyword file writing it in Grade 2 Braille.  For the
paragraphs I would space five times before putting in the paragraphs.  I
would also want the page numbers to appear okay in print.  It also has to be
doublespaced.  I would like to be able to then send an email to my professor
inserting the file into the email message or sending it as an attachment.
Also is there a way I can check on the BN BT how many pages something is in
print so far?  Like I'm writing the paper and I want to see how many print
pages I have so far?  Is there a way to do this for Braille pages too? Thank
you for your help and your time.
