There is a setting under translate file, forward translation options under
the file manager. Consult your manual index.
go to translate file topics, between Braille and text for more information.
This is where it is in keysoft 4.02 anyway, your manual may differ.
One section of this sub index deals with going from Braille to text, the
other going from text to Braille. I can't remember which off the top of my
head you're trying to do, but either section should help

On a separate note, but likewise related to translation, how can I translate
a text file so that the line breaks are acknowledged?  At the moment my text
files are translated in such a manner that the text is displayed in a single
continuous line.  This, I am sure, is not a bug but just a glimpse of my
ignorance, and again, all suggestions are welcomed.  Thanks to those who
provided info on the previous inquiry, and sorry I could not be of
assistance on the current thread.

     Best,
     Joe Orozco

model, it was quite a large work being just over 2 meggs in size.  quite a
large part of the story involved a man with the name, and here I think i'd
better go into computer braille, althuda.  imagine my surprise to hearing
this pronounced as: althoughuda.  though it appeared correctly written on
the braille display it was definitely spoken incorrectly.  I was reading
from a braille file.  I therefore translated it to a text file and, sure
enough, the translated form was incorrect.  those of us who normally work in
grade 2 braille will obviously realise what was happening: the first 3
characters were being translated as although, despite the fact that they
were immediately followed by the letters uda.  I was equally surprised to
find the word: alacrity  translated as: alacrossity.  the letters cr in the
middle of the word being taken as the word "cross."
