Hi Jamie, On my Braille display when I turn on Grade II, that em-dash looks like three dashes or hyphens, but it seems to translate okay with the bookshare braille translator. Hope that helps, Sue S. ----- Original Message ----- From: Jamie Yates, CPhT To: bksvol-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Tuesday, October 23, 2007 2:51 PM Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Re: dashes I just wanted to make sure that the em dash correctly translates into Braille. I know not all characters do. And I know that there was recent discussion about it but I have to confess I really didn't pay enough attention to it. I figured I could look it up in the manual. Some books use tons of em dashes. Jamie in Michigan Currently Reading - Loyalty in Death - J.D. Robb $10 Off Any Purchase at 39DollarGlasses! (discount applied at checkout)
