[nabs-l] print documents and Braille Note

You actually want the keyword Braille instead of BRF. BRF does not save 
place markers. Also, single carriage returns are often lost during 
translation to BRF.

Thanks. I'll look for .brf format then.
I have a braille style keyboard.

If I'm not mistaking, .brf which is a plain braille format should be
available on mPower, but keyword braille format should be good as well.
