Hi Guys.
I have been doing some experiments with Notes and braille, specifically brf
files. Hey, guys, Apple never intended for it to be used like this, but Notes
will swallow a whole brf file such as o you would get from Web Braille. Notes
will do transformation such as making all the text
Wow, how did you get the brf file into notes?

Hi, Gigi,
I'm glad this works for you. I tried reading a book in Notes and it seemed that
the file was too big, because my VO kept freezing and starting over, no matter
how many times I rebooted the IPod. I've basically started reading larger files
in Safari and Filer.
Take care,

Hi Teresa.
I don't how I can use Safari in my case, since I'm getting the files off the
internet. However, where do you get this Filer program? Does it come from the
App store, and how much is it?
Also, in as so far as your Vo messing up when you did a big file, I'm in Lion
kitty. I don't
Hi Gigi,
Teresa is speaking about an iOS app:
• Filer ($3.99) by Dan Leehr L.L.C.

It's a download app, but also lets you organize and play many formats of
documents and multimedia files within then app, with the benefit of generally

Hi Stacey.
It was real easy to get it in there. Get TextEdit to accept brf files. On my
computer these days, I told TextEdit to open brf files. Then I did a
transformation by first selecting all the text, going to edit, and down to
transformations. Then I chose to make all the text lower case.
Thanks Esther.
First, it's amazing to me how stuff you know about this. I'm impressed. I'll
save this info for that future iPad. I don't really need it for my iPhone.
Regards,
Gigi

Hi, Gigi,
I use Filer on my IPod, and I use textEdit on the Mac for brf files. Notes is
fine on the Mac, but really struggles for me on the Ipod. It used to be
possible to read brf files with Safari, but now there doesn't seem to be an
eight-dot mode on the Mac.

Hi Teresa.
I have an 8 dot mode on my Mac. That's how I got computer braille to come up so
I could read grade 2. Do you not get a choice for 8 dots when you go into the
braille option in the vo utility?
I use TextEdit too for brf files, but I can't stop TextEdit from showing
control
Ah, I didn't look in the utility for the 8-dot Braille option. I may have to
assign a keystroke to it, as I don't notice it by default.
Thanks,
Teresa
