Hi Flor,
MegaDots has an auto correct feature as well as a spell checker feature usable
in print or braille mode.
I am a certified braille proof reader, so I am perhaps more picky than just
looking for contraction errors even though I do this on a voluntary basis and
do completely read material from cover to cover regardless of the subject
matter. If you wish to check for contraction errors, there's a couple of ideas.
