They're already in Grade 2 Braille when they're produced. This is why you turn 
contractions off. You don't want to do a double-translation on the file. This 
can be confusing, I know, but you only want translation on when you're dealing 
with printed  text. The Braille in WebBraille is, one might say, 
"pre-translated".
