Jessica,

Yes; Braille dots 1 and 5, which is the en contraction in contracted Braille, is also the number 5
in computer and Nemeth Braille.

Hi,
Replying to email about computer braille, I think personally that
the easiest option is to import the document to braille and then
export after editing.
Computer braille wise, you use grade 1 braille but punctuation is
totally different.  Numbers are the letters of the numbers with
dot six so 5 would be the wh sign.
Hope this is helpful.
Thanks!
Kels

Hi, if you have to use computer braille it isn't to hard.  As far
as I can
work out so far it is just basic grade one braille.  So instead
of
contractions you just use the alphabet and numbers are lower
letters, for
example 5 is a lower E.

Hope this helps,
From Shaz.

| Hi, all.
|
| I'm trying to figure out the best way to read and edit
Microsoft Word
| documents with the Braille Note Apex BT32.
|
| >From what I'm reading in the manual, I can see two
possibilities here:
|
| 1.  Bring the document directly into the Braille Note via the
"open file"
| option under Word Processor, and use computer braille where
needed to do
the
| editing.  This could be a problem for me, since I'm not
extremely familiar
| with computer Braille;  or
|
| 2.  Translate the file into a Braille file first, and then
import it into
| the Word Processor from there.  If I'm interpreting things
correctly, this
| might not necessitate using computer Braille, but would involve
two extra
| translation steps--one when I import the document into the BN,
and the
| second when I export the document back to a Word document for
use by the
| sighted world.
|
| Am I expressing things clearly here, or just confusing issues
way more
than
| they need to be?
|
| Thanks for bearing with all my questions to the list lately.
|
| I promise that I won't ask questions without trying my best to
find out
| answers first.
|
| Sincerely,
| Dr.  Tom Behler from Michigan
