Carol, in Duxbury, press Alt-G to go into the Global menu, then choose
Embosser Set-up, which should be the first choice. Tab through this
dialog box, making the appropriate choices. You want to choose the
Blazer from the list of Braillers offered; you want interpoint not to be
checked; you want a maximum of 26 or 27 lines per page and 34
characters; the desired characters are 30 and the desired lines should
be 25. It will ask you for a port; choose the one you are using.
Now on the Blazer, you want your lines per page to be set at zero; let
Duxbury determine the lines per page. Make sure the port chosen on your
Blazer matches the one on the computer.
I may have forgotten something, but I don't think so. Now pull up your
print document in Duxbury, translate it, and off you go--then you can
find out about all the fun you can have trying to make the Braille look
nice. (grin) Actually, there's no better tool for that purpose than
Duxbury. (I know, I just angered all the MegaDots fans.)

a print text into Braille. Thank you.
