Yes, you can. You can only read them on a Braille display, as speech will be
gibberish. Also, brf files are all upper-case, so you might want to take the
dot-7 characters out. If you choose to do this, select all text, go into the
edit menu, choose transformations, and choose lower case. Another issue with
many brf files is that the carriage returns and line feeds are visible, and
since the lines are only 40 characters long for Braille formatting, this can be
a pain. I've tried removing the carriage returns, but then lose my natural line
endings. anyway, there's a certain amount of tweaking that will not create
perfection, but will allow you to choose the way you want it displayed.
