Look up any English letter in UEB: raised dots, Unicode cell, NABCC ASCII, and how Grade 2 reuses the same cell as a wordsign. Click a letter to jump. Use your browser’s Print for a one-page A4 chart (no separate PDF file). For full passages, open the braille translator; to decode pasted cells, use braille to English.
Every card is one lowercase letter cell from this site’s liblouis 3.39.0 UEB tables. Capital letters need the capital indicator (⠠, dots 6) before the letter cell—see the indicators note below. One chart page only: we do not publish twenty-six separate “letter in braille” URLs.

Capital indicator ⠠ (dot 6) before a letter. Learning reference only — not for publishing or exams. braille-translator.pages.dev
Braille numbers 1–0
UEB writes digits with the number indicator⠼ (dots 3456, ASCII #), then the same cells as letters A–J. So 1 uses A’s cell, 2 uses B’s, …, 0 uses J’s. Example: 42 → ⠼⠙⠃ (number sign + D + B).
Capital letter: prefix ⠠ (dot 6, ASCII ,) then the letter cell. Example: A → ⠠⠁.
Numbers: prefix ⠼ then A–J cells (see above). The number mode continues until a space or another indicator ends it.
Grade 2 wordsigns apply when that letter cell stands alone as a word (or under the UEB standing-alone rule). Inside a longer word the same cell is usually just the letter—context matters; check with the braille translator.
How to use this chart
Click a letter in the jump bar, or scroll the cards, to see dots, Unicode, ASCII, and Grade 2 wordsign notes.
Print from your browser (or the Print chart button) for a single A4 sheet—layout is tuned so cells are not clipped.
Paste a full line into the braille translator when you need Grade 2 contractions beyond single-letter wordsigns, or use braille to English to decode a pasted cell string.
