Hi James,
Thank you for this. Just one follow-up question: if the fifth line of a print
version is numbered '5' for example, this line on the braille version could,
typically, be on, say lines 7 and 8. Can you advise if there is a convention to
follow when the majority of a group of students will be following the print
version numbering? Apologies this isn't strictly a technical question.
Kind regards
Stephen

Hi Stephen,
In the UK, the guidelines are in the RNIB Braillists' Manual, section 33.
Summarising, line numbers are on the left, without numeric indicators, with the
text moved over to the right an appropriate number of spaces.
33.2. The line numbers are written in
cell 1 without numeric indicators. At least two blank spaces should separate
the number from the start of the line of text. The position of the text margin
is dependent upon the maximum number of digits anticipated in the line
numbering on the current braille page. For example, on the page in which line
100 of a prose passage is reached, paragraphs should begin in cell 8 and
runovers in cell 6.
There is much more detail in the Braillists Manual.
I trust this helps.
With best regards,
James.

Hi,
I'm not sure how to add line numbering to a text using UEB. This is for text in
paragraphs with indicators to the left for lines 5, 10, 15, 25 etc.
Can anyone advise?
Kind regards
Stephen
