>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.
