<DIV>Hi all- I'm working on a transcript of Nepali Sign Language and I can't <BR>find a particular handshape on the Signtext Editor. I've attached a <BR>Word document that has the closest handshape I can find, along with a <BR>description of how it would need to differ to represent that handshape <BR>I need. If anyone can point me to the right shape or advise me as to <BR>how I would create it myself I'd be grateful.<BR>Best,<BR>Erika Hoffmann</DIV></DIV>
