The dot 4-6's are underscore characters which someone typed on the
form. If they had been put in in a different way, DBT would not have
detected them. When I was doing braille transcription, I used F6 to
replace four underscores with one hyphen, then went through and cleaned up
the stray underscores and trimmed the blanks so that there were four
hyphens at each field.

I'm not sure how to find this piece of info: How do you change the character
DbT uses to show blanks in forms or on answer sheets? It now uses dots 46,
which I assume conforms to some standard ore other. I always prefer dots
36. Can this change be made?
Thanks.
