The lower case Y and lower case g could be confused. Both have a "tail
pointing down, and depending on the font, the y and g both have a "cup"
ontop of the tail. The difference is the G is closed into a circule while
the y is left open.
Let me think, hmmm, how would you describe that in braille.
Smile. hmmm.
well, I don't think there is a way, smile.
But I hope this helps, smile.
There was a couple of guys who created a system for teaching print letters
using the braille sell, I shall have to dig it up. Oh, wait.
O.k. smile, imagine the braille cell.
A y, would be dots 1, connected to 2, and a line going from 2 to 5, and then
a like connecting 4, 5, 6. The g would be a box, made of dogs 1, 2, 4, 5
all connected, and then a line going down from 5, to 6.
Smile. visualation aside, but that is the difference between a lower case g
and y.
I learned print, and read print all the way up to two years ago, in come
compasity or another, am now a full time braille reader, and do miss the
"little things" I could do myself, in print.
But hey you get the cards you are dealt. And there are positives to this
blindness thing I am learning, not seing the Burger King commercial for the
Chicken Baccon Cheddar Ranch, or so my parents says is quite a blessing,
smile.

I finally got mine up. Didn't do anythinng different, just tried again.
Here's a scanno I haven't seen. In the book I just uploaded called "The
Memory Bible" the letter y was almost always g, as in memorg, glossarg, the
author's first name Garg or Yrag. <lol> Do I am wondering if y and g look
anything alike.

That is sometimes the only thing I have found to work, smile.
Was validating a book and said that my long synopsis was too long. How, I
can't tell, because it made it through the first submission just fine, so
can't figure that one.

Well, I'm having "that problem" now even though I have used all the tips we
know. It keeps saying "this is not a valid RTF file", but dammit, IT IS!!
<smile> Guess I'll try later.
