More on punctuation errors: In everything but UEB, BrailleNote does not correctly translate multiple punctuation marks in a row. For example, instead of (?), i.e., question mark in parentheses, BrailleNote translates it as "left left parenthesis question mark were". Whereas, with just (?, i.e. left parenthesis question mark, BrailleNote translates as "left parenthesis his). In UEB, at least no contracted words appear, but with (?), i.e. question mark in parentheses as above, BrailleNote translates as "left parenthesis quotation mark right parenthesis".
Indeed, apart from in UEB, most combinations of two punctuation marks together results in the second one being translated as the equivalent grade 2 contraction, even though the rules of grade 2 forbid the use of a lower-cell contracted word to be used in conjunction with punctuation marks. I just thought I'd put in my two cents' worth because this has been bothering me for a while.

I have also noticed that if you try to do punctuation alone at the end of a line, like a punctuation smily face after some words and just before a hard return, the smily is missing in the email after it is sent; the bn just pulls it out of the message for some reason.
