Hi Gary.
Hmmmmmm. I'm not sure why your not seeing it. When you open the DBT
template it adds two additional tool bars all with DBT related codes.
Are you opening the DBT template from the file menu? I don't think can just
select the new new document icon or hit CTRL+N. That simply opens a new
document. You have to go under the file menu and select new. A box is opened
and I believe listed on the general tab you will find a template labeled
braille. When you open that template you should discover the additional DBT
toolbars.
If you don't see the tool bars now you might want to go under view,
toolbars and verify that the DBT toolbar is checked - this option will only
appear when you have the braille template open, not other word documents.
I have saved the braille template on my desktop and when I'm doing braille
documents (or potential braille documents) I open the template from this
shortcut instead of having to go through the other steps above.
Hopefully now you'll be able to find the dbt styles. I'm still in the
process of learning what all of the styles actually do - how they carry over
into DBT, but already I'm finding they are an incredible time saver!

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? Thannnnks,

Gary,
What I was referring to is not in DBT it is in Word. 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.

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.

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.
