I think you are referring to an "indicator" in the American Computer Braille Code. It shows that part of the print is displaced from the baseline; it has no effect on positioning embossed braille lines.

I am creating a tactile representation of the braille cell. I want to use Duxbury to do this. I am trying to use the least sophisticated method for getting what I want. Does the code for half line down really mean that my second line will be closer to my first line?
