Hello Steve:
If you are getting the correct transcription of flagstaff in print from the contracted braille word in DBT 10.5, what template are you using to get the correct result. Because, when I typed flagstaff and flagstone as they would appear in a braille file and then transcribed the file to print, I got the same result as Ann.
By the way, I performed this experiment in both 10.4 and 10.5 and got the same result, that is, flagainstaff and flagainstone.
Sincerely:
Dave Durber
