Hi Ann, and all you die-hard braille duxs,
I'm really, really going to be sticking my neck on the line here, and there
is always the chance that something might go wrong at the last minute. I've
a 19 inch collar size, so it will hurt a great deal if I'm hit with a
chopper! (Smile)
However, having seriously thrown my toys around on your behalf, I believe we
might finally have a new button added to the Help Files for Version 10.5.
What's it called?
"Emboss Topic"
What does it do?
To quote a famous advertisement for paint, "It does exactly what it says on
the tin!"
Having said that, it is not entirely set in stone, but when I set up camp
beside the duck pond in a couple of weeks time, I'm hoping to be able to
start testing it.
