Dear David,
I am translating documents that are prepared using Word Perfect for Windos 
and those files are converted by that program into files for Word Perfect 
v5.1 before they are loaded onto a disk and given to me to be put into 
braille.  The person preparing the document believes they can save it as an 
ASCII file so I don't get interference stripping some codes but not others. I 
take those v5.1 files and use "Text Out 5" to convert the files to a text 
file which I then use brltrans to convert to grade two.
An interesting thing is that after I translate one file, I find that I must 
warm boot the computer to convert a second file as it seems that unless I do 
that, Nfbtrans does not recognize the Braille Blazer I use.  Is this a quirk 
in the program?
Anotherobservation is that the first page of every document has a one line 
top margin and a one line bottom margin, but subsequent pages braille on the 
line that is just above the perferations that seperate each page. my .cnf 
settings include cl32, pw32, pl25, lm1, and others I can give if you need 
them.  the settings on the Blazer are: pl27, pl11, lm1, rm34, tm1, bm1, and 
others if you need those.
tried changing but the new codes for pw and pl in Nfbtrans have no effect 
which leeds me to believe that control codes are not being stripped out 
somewhere in the lond chain.
Any suggestions you might have will be most appreciated
