Hello all,
It's been a while since I tried to read a brf on my mac using a braille 
display.  I thought that I should be able to open it in text edit and turn off 
braille contractions and be good to go, but for some reason that isn't working 
right.

For some reason VO isn't representing the braille symbols correctly.  Dropped 
symbols, such as the symbol for con or in have a number sign in front of them, 
as if they were the numbers 3 and 9.  It mangles other contractions even worse. 
 As far as I can tell, this is a VO or braille display problem and not just bad 
transcription.  I can't actually navigate to the number sign in front of these 
symbols, which tells me there isn't actually a number sign in the brf file.  I 
tried it with two files, a book from BARD and a practice exam from the National 
Certification in Literary Braille Test.  Both had the same problems.  

I'm running the latest update of mountain lion with VO and a Brailleconnect 32 
bluetooth display.  My braille translation table is just plain english but the 
problem persisted even when I switched to UEB.

Has anyone run into a similar problem?  What settings might I change to fix 
this?

Thanks for any help.

Best,
Greg
