Don, here is the Word novice technique.

In Word, there is a menu item Format. Within Format, there is a setting for 
Tabs. Pressing <enter> will take you to a dialog with Radio Buttons. The first 
tab entry looks to be for you to enter the precise tab stop you desire. If you 
tab again, there are Radio Buttons that you can select (default), 1.5, 1.6, 
etc. After you select one, the next set of Radio Buttons are for designating 
what justification you want your tab stop, Left, Right, etc. The next 
selections are for leaders, if you want them. The first is for None. Then I 
went on around and selected OK.

I entered a very tiny document in Word, with tabs and without tabs. I then 
translated the Word document with Duxbury. My tabs aligned right under one 
another. Perhaps you want something more elegant, but perhaps this will get 
you started.

MessageHello:

Does anybody know how to set the tabs so that the indentions will be correct in 
the Braille document?  They seem to vary.  I am new to Word and am finding it 
to be a real pain!

Any help would be appreciated.

Don
