Dear Ethan,

The full version of Duxbury doesn't include a grade 3 braille table. The code hasn't been adopted anywhere and its original purpose was to allow people to take notes faster with their slates and braillers.

Grade 3 braille was very helpful before the days of the BrailleNote and PC, but I have stopped using it now.

As far as translation goes, you can translate text into grade 1 or grade 2 but you cannot translate a grade 2 braille file into grade 1 without first translating it into text.

Subject: [Braillenote] Grade 3 Braille on BrailleNote


Hello all,

Why doesn't HumanWare have grade 3 braille as an option on the BrailleNote? I have heard that grade 3 braille is mainly for note taking but what if I wrote notes down in class in grade 3 braille and then I had to print off the notes and turn them in? If grade 3 braille was an option on the BrailleNote then I could just translate the notes in to either grade 2 or grade 1, (just like you can translate grade 2 in to grade 1 or grade 1 in to grade 2) and print it off that way so the printer knows what to print. I don't know how easy this would be to put grade 3 braille in to the BrailleNote but I think it would be a cool feature for those of us who want to write in short hand.

Thanks! P. S. Grade 3 braille is exactly the same as grade 2 braille with more contractions so I wouldn't think it would be that hard to put in to the BrailleNote. Also, if anyone has the file of the 200 or so games in a zipped file could they please send it to me?
