Hi Monica!!
Those sound like interesting cookbooks.
1/2 c. would be fine. With the period after the c, it won't be confused
with the word can as just c by itself.

Hi everyone. I have been given three short cookbooks, and I think they're
going to scan well enough to submit. They look good so far. Each one is
around 100 pages. My mom is going to help me read ingredients if something
doesn't come out well. I'll share the titles, and then I have a question
about making the ingredients work for Braille users. I've never actually
submitted a cookbook, and I need a little guidance. The titles are
Better Homes and Gardens Breakfast and Brunch Cookbook
Better Homes and Gardens Chocolate Cookbook
Better Homes and Gardens Great Grilling Cookbook
Ok, I know I need to write out the fractions for measurements. For Braille
users, do I write them as 1/2 cup? Also, in the recipes, the measurements
are abbreviated, like the letter C for cup. I think the Braille translator
might show 1/2 C as 1/2 can if a person if using grade 1 or computer
Braille. Is that right, or does the Bookshare tool know to show it as the
letter C? I'll fix it if I need to, but I don't want to make extra work
for myself if I don't need to.
Thanks for any clarification you all can provide.
