Hi All:

Got the file into BRF then successfully opened in Kurzweil 1000.  This helps my 
client since she has Kurzweil.

        Hello All:
        
        Here's one for you.  I am trying to help a client that needs a way to
        translate books formatted in Braille files, like .brf or .dxb, into text
        files that she can listen to on her computer.  She has a Braille Note
        that does not work at all and that she cannot afford to get upgraded.
        
        Someone suggested I try opening Braille files in Open Book.  So, before
        talking with my client I decided I'd experiment with doing just that.
        When I went into Open Book, then selected a Braille file in DXB format
        to open and pressed enter on it, the file did not open.  Instead, it was
        printed to my default printer, wasting a lot of paper.
        
        Does anyone know if you can open .brf or .dxb files using Open Book and
        if so, any special ways to do it?  I would especially be interested if
        one can open these files in Open Book if you don't have Duxbury as my
        client does not.
        
        Thanks,
