Hi Jim, If you have Jaws, there is an option you can set to either show a 6 dot cell or an 8-dot cell. If the 8-dot is checked you would see all upper case. It doesn't say cell, it says display, as in 8-dot display.

When I get braille on my computer, I always go into a text editer and make the whole thing lower case. Thanks.
