Hi Terri,
I just wish it would say page six line four orand leave it at that.
Maybe there could be a toggle setting where a person could set this option.

Subject: [GWN] page boundaries
Hi,
Has anyone determined how many lines are on a "page" in a text document
you have opened using a BSP? Well, I discovered that there are 41 lines
on a "page." I also discovered there are 99 columns maximum for each line
in a text document. These boundaries seem quite odd to me. The default
number of lines on a page is usually 54. The amount of columns on each
line is usually 65. I'm surprised that HIMS uses millimeters instead of
inches. It also seems odd that we can't modify the display but only the
printer and embosser layout.
I also had to get used to the fact that the voice will only read one line
of braille at a time when you're in a text document. My other notetaker
reads one line of text, which is usually more than one line of braille.
I opened a document using both notetakers. When I read the status line on
the BSP, it said "page 17 line 5 column 3. such and such percent so many
lines so many paragraphs." (I wish they'd leave all that stuff out
because it's confusing.) When I opened the same document with the other
notetaker it's status line read "page 15 line 44 column 3."
I can't understand why the BSP interprets pages and lines the way it does.
Any thoughts?
