Hi Catherine,
There are so many possibilities, the only way we can really
tell what is going on is by seeing the actual file itself.
(But I'm happy to take a look)
That said, your own message seems to have it's lines
abnormally truncated.
George.

-------The
Word
Puzzle
(was
margin
bell)------
A
------ few
months ago, a
blind customer
sent me some
tutorial
material which
she wanted me
to emboss. She
intended it for
large print
users as well
as braille
users. F------or this
reason I examined the
material closely on a
braille display with
an "eye" toward its
appearance in
inkprint. I-----t was as
Ann described. For reasons
unknown, MSWord had added
extra spaces in weird
places, foreshortened
lines, and quite a few
lines which should have
begun at the margin and
didn't. When I told my
customer these things she
didn't believe me until
she did what I had done
and read the file
character by character on
a braille display with no
translation, in other
words, the print layout.
Can any of you sighted
experts explain why MSW--ord
files would come out like
this?------ I thought perhaps that
it was the file transfer--sending
the file via email through both
her program and mine buty that
doesn't quite account for it. Very
puzzling.
