Editing and/or Proofreading Marks

[Debbie Winsett]

Hello, I am in need of assistance with some of the Editing / Proofreading marks that I have been able to transcribe for one of my students. I have spent quite a while looking through my UEB Reference books but I have been unable to find some of the symbols that are shown on the attached print pages.  Also I have found a few symbols that appear to have more than one braille symbol, therefore I am not sure which one would be the correct symbol to use.

Some of the symbols I have found so I am not in need of help with all symbols  you will see listed on the two reference sheets I have attached.

Definitely I need assistance with the following symbols:

• capitalize mark (3 straight horizontal lines stacked on each other)
• delete or take words out symbol ( a curvy line with a loop in it)
• The close the space or Do not use a space symbol (the curved lines one on top of the other curved in opposite directions.

I would appreciate any help with these 3 symbols that you can give to me.

Please email answer directly to me if you don't mind. braillistrock@gmail.com

thank you, Debbie Winsett (braillistrock@gmail.com)
