American English Braille Translator (textbook)    

FUNCTIONAL SUMMARY

The English/American Textbook tables are essentially identical to the regular English/American tables, except that conventions defined for textbook usage in "Braille Formats," a publication of the Braille Authority of North America (BANA), are followed in preference to the general literary conventions followed in the regular table.
