Hi George,I am using dbt 10.5. This may sound like a stupid question but, will the new Braille symbols be able to be incorporated into my copy of dbt? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, ----- Original Message ----- From: "George Bell" <george@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

If you want to see what character will produce what Braille dots, there is a list in Help. In Help, expand "Codes, Styles & Templates", then "Codes". Arrow down to "Miscellaneous" and expand that. The first item there is "Embosser Character Table". The table shown there is in Numerical dot sequence.

The caret produces dots 4-5.

It's also a letter sign, so that could also produce it. Betsy At 09:34 AM 2/9/2008, you wrote:With the release of the BANA Code Updates for literary andtextbookformats that were just released and which took effect onJanuary 1,there are new symbols for things like copyright, trademarkandregistered. Dots 4-5 "c", "t", and "r" respectively. Willthesecodes be added to the next release of DBT? Also, how are rule changes incorporated? Will DBT waituntil theentire code is revised, or do they build in changes as theyareapproved? I'm thinking here of the new rule in literaryEnglishbraille to not insert an apostrophe in plural numbers, abbreviations, etc., and to use the termination indicatorinstead ifchanging from an uppercase abbreviation to a lowercaseplural "s".Is there any way to create the new symbols for copyright,trademarkand registered in simbraille in Word? I can't think of whatmightcreate the dot 4-5 part.
