[Trainer-Talk] Braille Display with Google Doc

[Jack Mitchell]

Make sure that contracted UEB is set for *both* input and output.  They are
generally different settings in the screen reader.  I don’t have an install
of NVDA in front of me right now, but in JAWS they are both in the Braille
settings, but listed separately — you can set input to contracted and
output to uncontracted or vice versa
