Hi Hope, I'm afraid there is no easy way to convert such files. They are essentially graphic format, even though there may be text in them. The best you are likely to achieve, is to print them, and then scan using an OCR (Optical Character Recognition) software package, such as Omnipage, Text Bridge, or similar.

I tried to convert them to rtf or PDF nothing worked. These are picture files with text. I want to convert them so the text can be read in Braille. I am visually impaired and am not even able to read the files on the disc. The files come up blank in Duxbury. I need these because I print the bulletins in print and Braille for church. I would be grateful for your assistance. P.S. I also tried to convert them to dos. * * * * This message is via list duxuser at freelists.org. * To unsubscribe, send a blank message with * unsubscribe * as the subject to <duxuser-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>.
