It's done with the star symbol, or the number 8 with the shift key. That's how 
I've always done it. Sorry I didn't understand what you meant the first time. 
<smile> Take care.

  I know what it is in braille but what I want to know is what print symbol 
generates itt. It is my understanding that asterisk in print is shown by the 
type of script used. Maybe Cindy can step in here if this is not the case. In 
this particular book, the sign I'm talking about often comes between two 
quotes.

      I am currently reading The Black Tower by P.D. James and several times I 
have seen in braille dots 3-5 two together. Would anyone like to hazard a guess 
as to what print symbol this represents. Is there any way we as scanners can 
create braille symbols that Duxbury will understand? I try very hard to 
eliminate such things as caret, tilde, etc. etc. as they will be written out. I 
am using Kurzweil 10.3 to scan.
