LATIN (Uncontracted)
TABLE DESIGNATOR
lat
(The initial translation table for a translation is determined by the selected template, and may be changed using the Document / Translation Tables menu. Using those menus does not involve explicit use of the table designator. However, in cases where it is necessary to switch to a different translation table partway through a file, the designator for the table being switched to is required; see the general description of the [lnb~...] command for further details.)
FUNCTIONAL SUMMARY
The Latin Uncontracted tables support print-to-braille translation of Latin-language literary text in grade 1 (uncontracted) braille only.
REFERENCES, HISTORY AND CREDITS
These tables are based upon the information given for Italian in "World Braille Usage," a joint publication of UNESCO and the National Library Service for the Blind and Physically Handicapped, Washington, D.C. (1990).
The tables were originally developed in September 1997 by Duxbury Systems, Inc.
