This is what the pk manual says regarding six and eight dots Braille. The eight dot determines how your enter key functions.
5.5.4 Select 6 or 8 dot Computer Braille. When you are typing in Computer Braille, this setting determines how you will input dots 7 and 8 if they are required. If you select 6 dot Braille, you must press SPACE with U before typing any character that requires a dot 7. For example, in US Computer Braille, at sign used in email addresses is written with dots 47. If you have chosen 6 dot entry, press SPACE with U, then dot 4, to write this symbol. If you choose 8 dot Computer Braille, the BACKSPACE key becomes dot 7, and ENTER becomes dot 8. So in the at sign example, you would press BACKSPACE with dot 4 to write the symbol. To have the BACKSPACE and ENTER keys perform their usual functions, simply press SPACE at the same time. So to perform an ENTER, press ENTER with SPACE. The BACKSPACE and ENTER keys only act in this way when you are working in Computer Braille. To select 6 dot Braille, press F. For 8 dot, press H. > ----- Original Message ----- >From: Leslie P Peterson <[EMAIL PROTECTED] >To: [email protected] >Date: Sun, 20 Feb 2005 16:46:09 -0600 >Subject: Re: [Braillenote] Restore ENTER key? >Issac, >I checked PK but it is still 8 dots.
