Hi Catherine, Thanks for the information. I loaded the braille template but, I didn't see any additional tabs or dbt commands. Am I missing something?

With 10.5 a MS Word template is downloaded. When you select new under the file menu in Word a box pops up and under the general tab is a braille template. This was installed by DBT 10.5 When it is opened there are additional buttons and pull down menus that put the correct style formatting into the Word document that will be recognized by DBT. I believe the Computer Braille Code in line button is near the top and says CBC on it (I'm not on my computer with DBT installed at this moment). You highlight the text you want in Computer braille code and then click this button, just as you would if you were changing text to bold or underlined... When this is selected the font does appear slightly different than the rest of your text -off the top of my head I can't remember what it says in the styles, font or size boxes, but it is a noticeable difference. Unfortunately you cannot open a previously made document into this Word Template, however you can select all, copy and paste it into the template and then make any needed changes. I do this for the monthly school newsletter for one of my students. It has several email addresses and web sites listed every month. Hopefully, this makes sense and you can get this to work. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ From: duxuser-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:duxuser-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Gary Metzler Sent: 06 May 2005 00:44 To: duxuser@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [duxuser] Re: formatting a link in word Hi Catherin, The instructions you gave are for working directly in dbt. I would like to do this in Microsoft Word. In the dbt menu bar I see a tab for format hyperlinks but, this didn't seem to do any thing. ----- Original Message ----- From: Catherine Culbertson To: duxuser@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Thursday, May 05, 2005 10:35 AM Subject: [duxuser] Re: formatting a link in word In the word template with 10.5 there is a button for the computer braille code in line style. Simply highlight the email address or web address and select this button. ----- Original Message ----- From: Gary Metzler To: duxuser@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Thursday, May 05, 2005 9:27 AM Subject: [duxuser] formatting a link in word Hi All, I am using DBT 10.5 sr1. I have SWIFT installed in word 2k. I hve a flyer I want to emboss and it has a few e-mail addresses and a web site in it. Is there a way to convert these entries into computer braille directly from word? If so how is it done? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Regards, Gary Metzler Outta Sight Travel, Inc.
