I do understand your decision but am curious as to how a number
proceeded by the (#) sign is supposed to be translated.  I like to do my
best to give readers the 'correct transcription' even at the risk of
increasing the number of signs in a document.  Not sure this is right
but just my bent.  Perhaps this old dog will learn some new tricks
eventually.  
Merci!

I never leave the number-sign in the document when translating it.

My tendency is to leave the double Braille number sign but I am getting
complaints.  WITCWTDT?  

 

Merci!
