I think we had this discussion before and it was agreed to leave the book as is. At least that's what I remember.
Would the staff please comment on this important issue. Thanks.----- Original Message ----- From: "Grandma Cindy" <popularplace@xxxxxxxxx>

Oh--then we should use two dashes rather than the em dash, I guess. Thanks for telling me. I'll change my habits right now, starting with the book I'm validating now.

The convention for Braille is to use two hyphens for the em dash, but for some reason Bookshare's Braille translator just puts in one hyphen.

I know not all characters do. And I know that there was recent discussion about it but I have to confess I really didn't pay enough attention to it. I figured I could look it up in the manual. Some books use tons of em dashes. Jamie in Michigan Currently Reading - Loyalty in Death - J.D. Robb $10 Off Any Purchase at 39DollarGlasses!
