It could have to do with the translation, or it could have to do with the line
breaks and spacing in the document. Take care.

I had not heard that "to" and "by" were now being separated and hope it isn't
true. In the book I am validating, most of the time these words are contracted
and adjoin the following word. The reason I asked the question is that I have
no idea how I could correct this. Does this have to do with the Duxbury
translation, and if so, I wonder why it isn't always done.

Hi,
The new braille code separates "by" from all other words, also "to" is
separated. Since they are also separated in print, I don't think you should
correct that. On my braille display, which is translating print text into
grade two contracted braille, "to" and "by" are always separated from the
following word. Did I understand your question right?

I am validating a book in text format on the BrailleNote but reading in
grade 2. What should I do when I see such words as "by" or "to" not attached to
the following word? If I can't do anything to correct that now, won't it also
show up in the final version (something I have seen quite often). Suggestions
anyone?
