    Please open the attached file to see a way to do this with braille dots. (ABT if you have Braille2000, BRF if you do not)
    Do not braille the original problem and the place-value problem side-by-side.
    A transcriber's note can explain the 456 line, and the omission of the arrow.

    Susan, I do not think the shading in the print table is significant--I believe it is only for visual tracking purposes. Even-numbered rows are also in italics. I would ignore that as well--it is another visual tracking print device.

    NIs are used in the column and row heading numerals but not in the table entries, and with one blank cell between columns, you can fit all 20 columns across two facing braille pages. Your TN can now simply be the first line only. "The table is read across a series of facing pages."

    If your page break is on line 24 you can do the page change indicator and then a line of text. If the page break is on line 25 or line 1 I would put it at the top of the page.

    Simple answer: Yes.
    Explanation: To clarify the differences between Chemistry Code and Nemeth Code regarding scientific abbreviations: space after the 6 or the 10 (follow print spacing); use an English letter indicator for each single letter abbreviation (as always); braille the entire m/s. unspaced; punctuate in the mathematical mode (precede each period with a punctuation indicator).

    Hi Susan
    It appears that the attachment referred to earlier in this post seems to have disappeared. It was a pdf file named called pg 512&513 and I will attach it here again for you. I no longer have the example files that I added at the time, but will also attach an example from another post where I addressed this issue. Hope you find this answers your question!!
