Hi Daniel, The accents for the O and A did not come out in my e-mail. Are they supposed to be umlauts? Also, what are the dot patterns for the Braille equivalents of these characters? FYI You can add these characters yourself. In the Danish grade one table dn-dn-g1.utb you can add lines like the following: Opcode character-hex-value dot-numbers comment For Example if I want to define the A-umlaut to be dots 345: uplow \X00c4\X00e4 345 # A WITH UMLAUT Uplow is the liblouis command for defining this as a character with both an uppercase and lowercase braille character with the same dot pattern. \X00c4\X00e4 This is the hexidecimal value for first the uppercase A umlaut and then the lowercase a umlaut. The values can be looked up in the standard Unicode chart. 345 is the dot numbers assigned to this character. If you want more than one braille cell, you can seperate each cell with a hyphen. The text after the number sign is a comment, reminding anyone who looks at the file that this definition is for whatever character so they don't have to look up the hexidecimal values in a unicode chart to find out what is being defined. If you update your own table please let us know on the list so they can be included in the LibLouis project. -----Original Message----- From: liblouis-liblouisxml-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:liblouis-liblouisxml-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Daniel K.

I simply replaced the old files in NVDA with the files you sent me. The 3 extra characters that are used in Danish are not showed correctly. The characters are: "æ", "ø" and "å". Right now, I don't know what we can do about this, but at least I have now communicated my latest findings. Hope we can resolve this somehow.
