Hi guys As a proofreader who has been forced to study UEB lately, I would first like to say that UEB is easier to read than to write; in fact, in my no-so-humble opinion, it’s a real pain to write for those of us who have been using braille since the earth was young. I suggested this to HIMS and I would please, pretty please, like to suggest to Apple, that even though BANA thinks to make the rest of us switch to UEB that the Grade 2 tables which are now listed as U.S. braille by VoiceOver be kept as a choice until some of us are not on the earth any more.
Having said all that, it will be easier for computers to put in format in UEB. Usually when I’m writing along I don’t care about that, but if I did, UEB would be easier to input things like italics, boldface, script, etc. into your braille text. It should be easier, for those who care, to switch between Nemeth Code and UEB also since there are specific symbols for doing so.
