Hi All:
I got a call from a teacher of the visually impaired in Prospect
Heights, Illinois who is running Duxbury Version 10.4. She wants to be
able to type out a student's Spanish worksheets in DBT print and
translate them to Grade II Braille. She set up the Portugese/Brazil
keyboard such that she can, for example, accent letters. She said that
when she tries translating what she has written into Grade 2 Braille,
the accents don't show up properly.
She indicated she has talked to Don Breda at Duxbury about this and he
is not sure what she is doing wrong. I am wondering if anyone out there
has had to prepare Spanish material in Braille using version 10.4 and
how you did it. We tried applying the Spanish style to the Duxbury
print prior to translating it into Grade 2, but that didn't solve the
problem. Any ideas would be appreciated.
