[nabs-l] BrailleNote questions

[Katie Wang]

Hi, Beth,
  Go to Options menu, Braille Options, and check whether your
preferred reading grade is grade 2. Setting this option should allow
you to read all types of documents in grade 2 braille. When you edit
Microsoft Word or other types of text documents, though, I think you
do have to use computer braille; that's just one limitation of the
Braille Note. Hope this helps!
   Katie
