The margin is in number of lines, not inches. > 2 Line length seems to be inconsistent. I have compared a braille document > embossed on a pc running windows and duxbery embossing software and the line > length appears to be 42 characters including spaces. > On cups, the line length is 38 characters and the remainder are transposed > to the next line so we have a line with 38 characters and the following line > has 4 to 5 characters and so on. The lines break in the middle of a word Does the original text file have 42-character lines, or more? Note that the left/right margin takes effect there. Emitting a .brf file as I mentioned previously would allow to know what comes from the software translation and what comes from the embosser processing. > 3 As far as I can gather, changing the paper size in cups does not affect > the line length. Well, it should. Enabling debugging in cups would help to allow to determine what is going on there. > The file I am testing with was created in libre office and saved as a plain > text file. If you could just post that file we would have a much more precise idea of what you are giving to cups. Samuel
