Yes, I read Braille as well, so they annoy me too.  I should think it woould 
be confusing to listen to them as well.  But there seems to be a disturbing 
number of this particular scanno in many books.

Hi,

Just to throw in my two cents, I read with a Pacmate.  I only read in
Braille, and so those things like 1 vs. I are definitely frustrating.

I want to say thanks to anybody who shared how they read Bookshare books. I
don't want you to think I was being nosy. I was curious but later I realized
I might have offended somebody by asking.

But by knowing how you read the books it also helps me to figure out what
things and why some things are important in scanning or validating a book.

I swear in some fonts the 1 and the l look identical and so to me, sight
reading, I would not catch that typo/scanno. But I can see how it would make
a huge different both in braille and in speech.
