Hello,

I posted this question once before but without any response.  I now have a
little more info so will restate my problem with the hope someone can help.

I have been sent a Megadots .brf file which I wish to open in my DBT 10.4
and emboss.  I am told the Megadots file is formatted for 25 lines by 30
characters.  I have changed my global embosser settings to this before
opening the file.  On opening the file, DBT tells me that the "page depth
has been exceeded".  The text is not fitting the correct number of lines as
it should per page and so I am ending up with run overs for each page of
about 4-5 lines.

I have tried opening the file using the textbook, standard and locally
created "Australian" templates.  None make a difference.  I choose
formatted braille as the importer.

Any suggestions for how I can achieve my aim of embossing this file as it
was intended.

I should note that I requested the print files, hoping they would be like a
.dxp equivalent but I do not think I will be getting them.

Thanks in advance
Ramona
