Braille files with Spanish turned on or dot 4 + letter for
accents have always worked fine for me. And so has 6-dot
computer braille with key combinations set to uppercase table
accent characters in Unicode. The machine thinks it's English if
you do it the grade 2 dot 4 way, but as long as you don't mind
the speech's pronunciation, it's fine. ;) In fact, I'm actually
faster at understanding the speech this way, than using eloquence
to read Spanish just because I've done it like that for years ...
And am too lazy to switch between KeyNote Gold and Eloquence
speech all the time..

You must turn on Spanish and use the Spanish code. You must read
it in
uncontracted braille. You must also turn on 8 dot braille. You
don't have
to translate the text into braille.
When you write accents, you must use the unicode tables and you
must use
text files. Using braille files and addign dot 4 before a letter
isn't
correct.

Hi all,
My VI teacher sent me some Ascii files, which are written in
Spanish,
through email. However, when I open one of the files, it's very
hard to
read it because there's strange characters around the words. It
is also
difficult to read words with accents because the accent symbols
show up as
strange characters as well.
I use KeySoft 9.2. Is there a way I can fix this? Can you only
use
braille documents when writing in Spanish, since you can write
in grade 1
or grade 2 and the accents only require a dot 4 before the
accented
letter?
Thanks.
Carlos
