Amiyo,

You should have no problems sending a file via E-mail as long as you send it as an attachment. However, if you try to paste the file into a message as if it were text, you'll have all kinds of problems.

Yes, I transferred it by email. I shall try it once on a floppy. The problem is that the floppy drive of that pc is not in good condition either.

With best regards
Amiyo.

Hi Amiyo,

How are you transferring the file? Are you sure that it is not becoming corrupted in the process of transferring it (does the file have the same size on both computers)? If you are transferring via email, for instance, it is possible that it is not being encoded correctly or that the encoding is being interpreted differently by the mail cclient on the sending machine than by the mail client on the receiving machine. I have had similar problems before where a file with a line beginning with a . would appear to start with two periods after it had been emailed to me.

Hello,

We cannot open a Bengali .dxb file written in 6 key mode in dbt10.3. The error message is "Error reading style information. OK"

I tried to open the file in dbt10.3 and 10.4 on other pc's, but it did not open. The pc where the file was written has Windows 95, dbt10.3, and panda antivirus software installed on it. However, the file can be opened only in that pc where it was written. But it does not have an embosser attached to it. It does not have jaws either. The user mistakenly associated .dxb file type with acrobat 3.0. I removed the file association from Folder option though.

I can send the file as attachment for checking.

With best regards
Amiyo.
