Hi there That's just it. You don't have to back translate anything. That's the beauty of it. the Edge does the back translating as you go. I was real surprised when I found out about this. You set your new file to be a text file, and you set your translator to be the kind of braille you want like English or UEB or whatever. Then you just braille in it, copy your file to your Mac, and presto, translated braille file.
I also found out you can paste from a brf file into your text file, and presto, it's translated.
