Hello Brandon:
The Duxbury formatting codes [g1] and [g2], which you can access by invoking
the codes menu with the f5 key, will cause following text to appear in
uncontracted (grade 1) Braille and contracted (grade 2) Braille respectively.
Thus, the inelegant way to achieve what you want to do is to start your
document with a [g1] code, and then delimit your desired contractions with the
[g2] and [g1] codes. Example.
[g1]Most of this passage is written in uncontracted Braille, except [g2]for
the[g1] Braille “for” and “the” wordsigns.
There’s probably a Duxbury style to render a whole block of selected text in
uncontracted Braille, but I don’t know what it is.
