[QuickTacBeta] QuickTacBeta Digest, Vol 2, Issue 1

[Lisa Yayla]

Hi George,

Thanks I will send. And made a mistake, it is version DBT 10.5.

I was trying to see how a QuickTac file with Braille in it would look when
embedded in a Duxbury file.
 Was wondering if the Braille in the Duxbury file would get affected.

Thanks,

Lisa
