Please do not think I am being critical but, You cannot transition nor
do you transition from page to page in a book.  You turn a page or
pages of a book.

If you are referring to print reference page indicators in a braille
book, the code:

[lea]

folllowed by the number for the print page you want to reference, for
example:

[lea]25

will place a line of dashes (dots 3-6) across the line and place a
number sign followed by the braille representation for page 25 at the
right end of the line, if you are using "BANA" (Braille Authority of
North America) braille rules.

If the print page reference occurs in the middle of a line of text, it
is a good idea to make sure that the code is preceeded by a space
character (although this is not essential).  It is, however, very
important that you type a space character immediately following the
print reference number.  If you do not, the text that immediately
follows the print reference number up to the next space character or
hard return or hard page break codes, for example, will be treated as
part of the text to be included along with the print reference page
number, which is not generally what you want.

Sincerely:

Dave Durber
