    Cindi,

    How would you transcribe this in UEB?

    M., Bj‾rkum

    The macron isn't printed above a letter.

    Thank you

    Is the line indicating an omitted letter?  Could you send me a scan of the print page?

    Hi Cindi,

    I'm trying this again with a smaller file. Sorry...

    Here is how the braille should look:

    You should use the macron symbol and put a TN before the entry stating that the macron is a free standing macron (and is not over the r). There really isn't a rule about this...though UEB does allow for free standing modifiers.

    I suspect it is a print error...but you need to follow print anyway.
