I believe that an asterisk in Braille might also appear in place of a bullet.  
Of course a bullet isn't supposed to appear in the places you describe, but 
then a lot of junk is sometimes present where it shouldn't be.

  Subject: [bksvol-discuss] for braille readers


  I am currently reading The Black Tower by P.D. James and several times I have 
seen in braille dots 3-5 two together. Would anyone like to hazard a guess as 
to what print symbol this represents. Is there any way we as scanners can 
create braille symbols that Duxbury will understand? I try very hard to 
eliminate such things as caret, tilde, etc. etc. as they will be written out. I 
am using Kurzweil 10.3 to scan.
