I would ask a fourth question: Are there any Braille codes where including other text (eg. the word page) would be desired? IE. Should this be optional?
In answer to question 1, I seem to remember having seen a document or book where the page numbers at a certain point did contain something else. I cannot remember which document/book it was, but I have a feeling it may have been numbering within the appedices. I will see if I can find that document/book.

Hello.I am looking at fixing a problem we've found. When you transcribe a DTBook or NIMAS file the <pagenum> element sometimes has other characters in it besides just the page number. One book in particular we are working with uses the word "page" like <pagenum>Page 1</pagenum>This results in the word "page" ending up on the print-page indicator line. Our transcribers tell me this is not correct. I see where LibLouisUTDML does this and can fix it but I want to be sure it is fixed the right way. Here are my questions:1.Do print-page indicators ever have anything other than roman or Arabic numerals?2.Should we define the characters that represent numerals in the configuration? Is there another way?3.Is there a call to LibLouis that might use the translation tables or chardefs to facilitate this?Thanks. Keith
