Dr Cross,
I would highly suggest that you discuss the Braille troubles with Kurzweil
Educational Systems. When the file come out of the Bookshare processing
tools, it is as it should be with regards to page numbers. Bookshare cannot
address the difficulties with the particular program you are using to read
the Braille file. No matter what translator Bookshare uses to ocnvert the
books to braille, I suspect Kurzweil wil continue to have problems with this
particular issue until it is addressed by KESY.

Well, what about using another Braille translation program. Do I really
have to spend a few thousand dollars just to get the page numbers?

Given Pratik's recent message, if you're downloading them into K1000, there
may not be a way of doing this reliably. But if you were to put them onto
another device such as the BrailleNote or BrailleLite or Pac Mate, then the
print pages are indicated by a line of dashes with the page number at the
end.

When I download a recent book from BookShare in the BRF format, can I be
sure of being able to determine the print page number of the material I
happen to be reading? If I can, how?
