Phew~ I'm glad about that. That's the way I've handled it. Kind of.
I've put a special symbol in the note to braille edition.

Hi Teri,
The way we handle it here is to add a "Transcriber's Note" which says
that where the Copyright Symbol appears in text, it has been replaced
with xxx in braille. It's then up to you to decide what you want to
use. Perhaps (c) and (t).
Then do a search and replace where appropriate.
George Bell.

Hi
In Formats, rule 5, it says:
"(2)
Nonalphabetical signs with no braille equivalents. Substitute the
names for print signs that do not have braille equivalents, such as
copyright for © and trademark for TM."
I have the trademark symbol occurring quite frequently in one
particular section of the manual I'm doing. Do I have to put the word
trademark in every time? Before I knew what the symbol was, dbt
interpreted the trademark symbol as a kind of asterisk or dagger
shape. Is it acceptable to put this symbol on my special symbols page
or do I have to write the word trademark every time?
Also, what happens in british braille when the trademark symbol is
encountered?
Thanks.
Teri
