Hi Susie. Would the soft return, when you hit enter on the PC be considered a carriage return or a line feed? In the document menu, embosser setup, advanced options, there is a setting for end of line indicator and I have it set to carriage return, line feed (PC) Is this setting correct or should I change it?

A hard return is when you really do want to go to a new line; the code for that is CTRL-L. The old WordPerfect codes called it HRT. It forces a new line.

For example, if you hit if you hit enter on your PC to go to a new line, is that a hard return?

You will see this if you view Codes in the .DXP file, where there will probably be an [l] code at the end of each line. The quick way to resolve this is to highlight each paragraph, and from DBT's document menu, select "Join Lines".

I am a Duxbury 10.5 user and am new to the list. I'm trying to print out a document and the carriage returns are being ignored. The document looks fine on my braille display but when I print it out, the carriage returns are being ignored. In other words, there are line breaks in awkward places and all the braille seems to be crammed opnto 1 page. I've also noticed there are about 10 lines left, which shouldn't be the case either. My parameters are 26 lines/page, 41 characters/line. Does anyone have any recommendations? Thank you.
