I use KeyWord all the time and I love it!  I have written KeyWord text
documents and I have used the export feature or the save feature to save
them in a format the PC can read.  I have also created braille documents and
exported them as .brf files so I could read them with my PC and DBT Win.  I
have even created both Word and WordPerfect documents from scratch using
KeyWord.

The types of documents I create run the gamut from Bibles and hymn books to
braille music anthems for singing.

I have noticed that the automatic indents and styles such as heading will
not export into Word or WP, but centering, bolding and underlining are fine.

I have often mentioned PDI should update Keysoft so bold and underline fonts
will translate into braille as dots 4,6 and not use the codes.  The
full-fledged version of Duxbury does this, so I can't see why this change
couldn't be implemented.

I also wish PDI would upgrade Keysoft's codes, like hard page breaks, so
they can be supported when a document is saved or exported to WP or Word.

I prefer using Keysoft to using my PC, Windows XP, or Duxbury to edit
documents;  but DBT has features which KeyWord doesn't have, and if I want
them in my braille documents, I like using my PC to spiff them up.

I absolutely HATE Word so I use other programs in my PC if I need to add
something to a print document which DBT can't handle.

I still have my old PC and I can still use WP 5.1 if I want to.

In my opinion, KeyWord is the most important feature on the BN.
