Lisette,

There may be some differences between British Braille and American Braille, and since I don't know what they are, I'm reluctant to comment on the two styles you mentioned. The easiest way to see the differences is to go to the Document Menu and select Modify Styles. You'll see a drop-down list from which you can choose the style you want to view. When you find the style you want, press Enter. You will see the beginning codes of the style. Press Tab, and you'll see the ending codes. When you've finished inspecting the codes, press Tab until you get to the Cancel button; then press Enter. As long as you cancel out of the operation, the styles will remain unchanged. Good luck.

Hello all

Could somebody please explain what the difference is between compinline and
comp display? When I tried using the compinline style in the British Braille
template I got something which looks like British computer braille but  with
dot 6 ing sign before and after. Are these indicators now standard?
And there was also a letter sign between the indicator and the first letter
of the email address. Why? The address was in lower case but would this
letter sign be necessary or should the absence of a capital sign be enough?
This would be my opinion.
And finally: DBT broke up the lines with no      indication of hyphen or
suchlike. Would the comp display do this better?
Many thanks for any enlightenment.
