Hi Laura and list,
That's correct when I have a word like "quaint" the brailleNote reads it
"qua9t" and so on. I can give you hundreds of examples like that. This how my
BN reads these BRF files.
As I said before I can read but I can't listen to any books that are in BRF
format.
Thanks and forgive me for bothering the list with this peculiar problem which
seems to exist in my BN only.

Hi,
Just for curiosity's sake, when your .brf file is being read incorrectly, is
the braille being interpreted as text? for instance, does the word "would"
in grade 2 displayed as the letters wd, read as such? is the wourd "such"
read as "s star"? i assumed your problem was what Maria described, but
you've said that you have the file set to braille, so frankly, i have no
idea. i have also tried to replicate this but cannot. Laura

Hi Susan, Terri and list,
I'm glad that I have a reply for this E-mail. till now I can't listen to
books if they're in BRF format.
I did the following:
1- "review previous options" I pressed "y"
2- I pressed "t" for text.
3- "extended ASCII character option" I tried the 3 choices ["c" for standard
ASCII characters, "i" for ignored and "r" for retained].
4- "extended character set" I tried also the three choices: ["m" for ms-dos,
"a" for ANSI and "i" for the international ms-dos].
I used 3 and 4 interchangeably, still no way to let the BrailleNote read
them correctly. What I'm doing wrong?
Is there something messing I should do?
side note: if I went to the file manager and I translated the BRF files into
text I can listen to them. I don't want to go through this tedious way. I
would like to listen to the BRF files directly without translating them
specially if the book is in 30 files or more than that.
I hope I'll be able to listen to book soon.
Thanks for any help in advance
Dr.KAAK

The problem may be when opening the file you are asked if you want to
review
the options. Type y and see if the file is braille or text. I've had
that
happen when I opened a file and thought it knew it was braille. After I
changed the setting it read perfectly.
