Caroline,
There is a workaround for this, albeit rather inelegant, and only in the
brl file.
Translate the document (ctrl t), highlight the area(s) of double caps,
do a search and replace dot 6 dot 6 with either a single dot 6 (good for
headings) or leave the replace field blank for no caps. When DBT asks
you if you want to search the rest of the doc. say no.
Watch out for acronyms, you may have to "replace" them back
individually. With sentences maybe search for "period space" and replace
with "period space dot 6"? (I haven't tried this).
Alan

Subject: [duxuser] Suggestion for future release maybe
Hi everyone. I've run into this several times and thought it might be a
good feature to add into DBT. Many times partially sighted people will
send documents in all capital letters because they say that it's easier
to read. This may be true for print, but to me at least, it's an
absolute pain in braille, both on paper or on a refreshable display. I
know that Word has a feature that allows you to change the case of parts
of a document. However, I'm wondering, what would the chances be of
incorporating something like this into DBT? It could be one of those
time-saving features that would mean less time trying to fix up a Word
document before importing it. Thanks.
Caroline
