Hi, folks: Yeah, it's embossing again, and I'm really ticked off! I just got
through embossing two documents, each approximately 65 Braille pages. To get
this done I had to break each document up into three sections. Yeah, I know
how to fix the numbers, so that it finishes on 30 pp., starts on 31, finishes
on 60, starts on 61 and finishes on 65. (If that was tedious to read, it was
just as tedious to make the appropriate adjustments!)
Now, I may be a silly goose, but I really beliaeve that I should be able to
emboss more than 30 pages at a time, without risking things getting completely
screwed up, when the embossing stops in the middle of the job! Like I say, I
know the work-arounds, and I know the story, that for some reason, the BN and
some embossers don't communicate very well. But, you know what? It doesn't
wash. Everyone who's done embossing with this product has had similar trouble.
This is really a "known issue", and, frankly, is, in my mind more important
than media players, or some of the other things, which have been, or will be
up-coing.
I love my BN. It's my primary computer. I think it's the best machine on the
market, bar none. But, a bug is a bug is a bug!! If it's known that there are
some embossers, with which the BN really doesn't work, let us know which ones
they are! For my part, I'm using the versapoint duo. I tell you that I can't
emboss any more than 30 pages with the bn. PDI, this is something you guys
really need to deal with. I thank you for your time. God bless. Bob and
