Hi, Mike,

I can' give you specific commands because I'm using a QWERTY keyboard, but I can give you general information.

First, you need to go to the language options and turn on the Spanish language. Then, you need to choose Spanish computer braille for your preferred reading and you must choose Spanish computer braille table for writing in Spanish. At the beginning of your Spanish file, you must choose Spanish as the language for that particular document.

When you write Spanish computer braille, be sure 8 dot mode is turned on. The accented letters are: a, dots 1,2,3,5,6,8; e, dots 2,3,4,6,8; i, dots 3,4,8; o, dots 3,4,6,8; u, dots 2,3,4,5,6,8; n tilde dots 1,2,4,5,6,8; inverted question mark, dots 2,6,8; inverted exclamation dots 2,3,5,8. To write capital letters, add dot 7 to the braill alphabet. the numbers are: 1, dots 1,6; 2, dots 1,2,6; 3, dots 1,4,6; 4, dots 1,4,5,6; 5, dots 1,5,6; 6, dots 1,2,4,6; 7, dots 1,2,4,5,6; 8, dots 1,2,5,6; 9, dots 2,4,6; 0, dots 3,4,6. The backspace key is dot 7 and dot 8 is the enter key. Here's how to write some of the punctuation: period, dot 3; comma, dot 2; apostrophe, dot 4; opening parenthesis, 1,2,3,5,6; closing parenthesis, 2,3,4,5,6; semicolon, dots 2,3; colon dots 2,5; dash, dots 3,6. As you can see, Spanish computer braille is much different from U.S. computer braille.

I hope this helps!
