Full circle: this topic reminds me of back-translating a DXB file. Two
codes, the print code and the braille code. As soon as the braille code
is set to contracted braille, there is no longer any true
representation, letter for letter, symbol for symbol, and that is the
reason we use contracted braille; to make the print code less cumbersome
and to provide a reader friendly document.

The w/ used to confuse me.  Ithink it's silly to use a print
abbreviation 
which takes 3 cells when there's a perfectly good sign that takes only
one 
cell.
