    Reggie, I would think that if you save a document as a text file, you
would lose formating, even if you then resaved it as an RTF file.

    E, do you know if PulseData is aware of the BrailleNote problem? I'm
under the impression that Kurzweil is working on their end of it, though I
don't think they have tracked down the cause yet.

Regards,
Paula
