Somehow I'm missing something about what you are trying to do. As a sighted person, when I enter print in Word or another editor I almost never look at how it is lining up; I just let the application line it up for me. I haven't use a typewriter with a margin bell for over 30 years. I'm not a transcriber but when I want to produce braille, I let DBT take care of translating from print and lining up the braille.
