In DBT the "'" shows up as that character and if you want a single quote you have to put in a "`", the unshifted tilde key. The "`" gets produced in braille as a 6,236 or a 356,3 respectively. I'm not sure how it is handled in the various book readers. J. R. ______________________________ J. R.

Every time there is an apostrophe in a word, Kurzweil says "single quote;" however, the braille display simply shows the word with an apostrophe. Does anyone know when Bookshare makes this book available in braille how this will be interpreted? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This email is confidential and may be legally privileged.
