You may remember, Jill and other braille readers, that the braille translator is antiquated. As such, we have no idea what it would do with the hyphen.


Once again, we have no staff guidance here.

Recipes in NLS books and others as well put a hyphen between the 1 and 1/2 and I would prefer this. c. is fine for cup and lb. for pound. I am a braille reader. Jill

What I have done when the recipe calls for say 3 1/2 cups is to make the three, then a space then the 1/2. I am sighted and thus not eligible for Bookshare books, but I have done quite a few cookbooks and no one has said to do differently than that.

I would be interested in the opinions of users on this too.
