Hi all,

I'd put the Sanskrit symbols into the book just as they are printed, then I'd put parentheses around something like this: (scanner's note: symbols are Sanskrit, translation is: whatever.) That's what my instinct would be. It would be treated as a caption for a picture, I would think, but I could be wrong. We may have to wait till The Powers That Be at Bookshare can make a decision about it.

Original message:

It was a bunch of symbols which I do not understand I had to get a human on be my eyes to see the page and she had to send the screenshot to one of the people she knows to get it translated to English problem now is how do I type these words in the original language which I guess Bookshare would want them in the original language correct?

Hi Chris,

I'd type: translate:word to English into google and see what happens.
