This is Joseph. Actually, Spanish table is in Computer Braille, meaning that
you have to type text in computer Braille.

Sarah V.;
When you write in spanish braille, everything is in grade 1.  this is
because some of the contractions are taken up by accented letters and the ch
and n with the tildi.  there might be more.  Is there any chance you might
need your machine to be in grade one?  Is there a Spanish setting like the
French setting talked about yesterday.  Just a few thoughts.
I have not tried other languages on the BN, but I have taken Spanish in high
school.
Good Luck.

Terry Powers

I have seen the option for 6 or 8 dot computer braille.  8 dot computer
braille is one braille code I don't know how to use.  My issue is a separate
one I believe.  I can read Spanish when I switch to Spanish as my computer
braille language, but if I try to write something it doesn't work.  What you
must write and what is displayed when you switch to another language's
computer braille table simply aren't the same.  I should have had my
languistics student friend confirm my observations, but I forgot and might
not see her for a while.  In order to know anything about this you'd have to
have tested other language tables on your braille note.
