Which is the new setting in iOS 7 and appears to fix the translation
issue. Glad it does for you.

Turning off automatic braille translation in the iPhone settings

I know on iOS that translation from computer Braille to literary grade
II Braille is best described as querky. This however has been fixed in
iOS 7. What happened is you start typing a word such as black. If you're
a quick typist then you won't see this problem. But if you are a slow
one then you may end up with the letters b l a c just fine but after
entering the k and the space the k would translate to knowledge. Someone
can correct me on this though because I don't use Braille on iOS or OS X
yet. I'm not aware of any issues pertaining to Braille under OS X.

Sabahattin,
I wanted to come back to this and ask you, in what ways you feel
that braille support in OS X (and iOS too?) is substandard. When I begin
to use my Mac full time, I will connect my braille display most of the
time. Therefore I want to be aware of these issues and work around them.
Thanks.

Hi Eileen,
To be honest, braille on OS X is a bit substandard. As you can see,
it doesn't even quite work as designed in some text fields. I'd
encourage you to open the same document in TextEdit, for comparison.
Don't get your hopes up for anything like the quality of support from
the Windows screen readers, I'm afraid.
With regard to BrailleNote in particular, the best way to figure out
what all the keys do is to examine the mappings in VoiceOver Utility.
I changed the panning buttons to be the outer keys, and vertical
navigation to be the inner ones.
I hope you figure this out, but feel free to ask if you get stuck and
I'll try and recreate your issue.
Cheers,
Sabahattin
