Peter,
 
"British Braille" Rule 6 - Numbers.
 
Rules 6.1.6 basically says that while telephone numbers may
be spaced in print, the space should be removed in braille
and thus for example 01604 792777 is written
"#jafjd#gibggg".
 
This is further complicated by Rule 6.1.7 where the space
should also removed in "groups" of letters and numbers, for
example "HAM 1597".
 
It appears that 10.5 SR1 resolved the first above, but it
broke in SR2 and is the same in Beta 8.
 
George
