Janet,

 

If she had an windows-xp computer and upgraded to vista or maybe even
windows-7 I may know what happen.

 

There an issue with the printer setup button not appearing. 

All your student needs to do is when she is in the printer setup area
where the button should be just press Alt-P on your keyboard, this will
allow her to select her printer.

As far as being up able to print in sim-braille; it could be that the
sim-braille will work once the correct printer is selected.

As for saving in .brf format, I'm not sure none of my students have not
had any difficultly have your student try to printing sim-braille and
save as in .brf after they correctly configure the printer.

 

If you if that doesn't work let me know and I'll try to see if something
else might be the cause.

 

Best of luck;

 

Sincerely yours, 

 

Barry

I have had something strange happen with Perky Duck. A trainee is using
it to direct enter braille. She installed it on her previous computer
and it worked fine. She could also print simbraille and save her dxb as
brf. Now she has installed it on a new computer, from the same setup
file, and she's lost those options. In "printer setup" the printer
button is just missing so she can't select her printer. And in "save as"
the drop down menu no longer offers brf. Has anyone else experienced
this? She's using Windows 2007.

Janet
