[nabs-l] Bookshare Question

Hi, Vejas--

This setting can be changed on Bookshare. The Braille code in which
BRF files are displayed depends on how they were transcribed by their
source. Even when I switched my Apex to read in UEB, some BRFs were
still in EBAE because they were created that way. The BrailleNote only
displays the dot combinations for these files and does not translate
them itself, which is why I can write notes in Grade 3 Braille.

>From Bookshare, click "My Account," then "Edit Preferences." Under the
heading "BRF Size and Format," select Grade 2 UEB from the combo box.

HTH,
