What do smart quotes look like in Braille? What dots? You say A circumflex, but I do not remember what that looks like? The reason I ask is that a lot of the publisher quality books seem to have trouble with quotation marks when translated into BRF files. They also have the problem of sometimes interpreting the apostrophe as an open quote with a dot before the quotation mark.

Hi Roger and Everyone else, In true OpenBook fashion, your submission of Imago has smart quotes. Whoever takes this book to proofread will need to change the smart quotes to regular quotes. This problem is not apparent to anyone using only speech. That is why I mention it. Also, OpenBook uses these smart quotes routinely. I don't know if Bookshare's tools have learned to deal with this problem. I think I remember someone saying that that is either in the works, or fixed, but if not corrected, smart quotes read as an a circumflex in the daisy books. I have no idea how munched they are in the brf files, but this change from smart quotes to regular quotes is easy to do in word. Just thought I'd mention it. Roger you didn't cause a problem, it's just an issue that OpenBook has for everyone.
