If you go throught the NLS course to be a certified braillist you
receive a manual and in this manual is a chart of ascii braille. I
suggest that to do braille correctly you get certified and buy all the
BANA books for reference.

Hi everyone. I am particularly interested in hearing from sighted
users on this issue. In the class I am currently teaching on the use of
DBT, I have a sighted user who has no prior braille knowledge. I'm
wondering how people with no braille skills handle working in translated
braille documents? are there specific settings that you use to make
this easier? Also, is there anywhere that I could get a list of the
print punctuation and how it translates into braille? For example, a
print Comma when written in the braille file is actually the dot 6. I'm
looking for some sort of quick reference sheet that would help this
individual to know the translated symbols, and maybe even give an idea
of what it would look like on the screen, or at least give the dot
numbers. If any document of this nature exists I'd love to find it!
SMILE!!! Thanks in advance for any help.
Caroline
