Hi Lisette,

That character is not actually a hyphen, so DBT won't translate it unless you change it. I'd try finding that character in the DBT print document, selecting it, copying it to the clipboard, and pasting it in as the first argument in the Find/Replace dialog.

Hi folks

Hope someone can explain something to me. I recently translated a word
document which contained a few dashes (jaws pronounced them endash). I
assumed DBT would translate them as the braille dash, but instead it
translated them as a ch sign followed by two in signs, which I think is the
braille asterisk or something like it. I don't know what version of word was
used to create the original document, but I'm using dbt 10.4. Is this
something which happens with certain versions of word?

Many thanks.

Lisette
