256 braille patterns. A character and its name both copy the character. A code copies the code.
CharacterNameCode pointHTML
U+283F. Dots 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 raised: 2800 + 1 + 2 + 4 + 8 + 10 + 20 in hexadecimal. Every dot of the six-dot cell.
U+2801. Dot 1 raised: 2800 + 1 in hexadecimal. The letter a in English braille.
U+2802. Dot 2 raised: 2800 + 2 in hexadecimal.
U+2804. Dot 3 raised: 2800 + 4 in hexadecimal.
U+2808. Dot 4 raised: 2800 + 8 in hexadecimal.
U+2810. Dot 5 raised: 2800 + 10 in hexadecimal.
U+2820. Dot 6 raised: 2800 + 20 in hexadecimal.
U+2840. Dot 7 raised: 2800 + 40 in hexadecimal.
U+2880. Dot 8 raised: 2800 + 80 in hexadecimal.
U+28FF. Dots 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 raised: 2800 + 1 + 2 + 4 + 8 + 10 + 20 + 40 + 80 in hexadecimal. Every dot of the eight-dot cell, the last of the block.
U+2800. No dots raised: the empty cell, the first character of the block. Unicode's note: while this character is imaged as a fixed-width blank in many fonts, it does not act as a space.

How it works

Unicode braille patterns are the 256 characters from U+2800 to U+28FF: every way of raising the eight dots of a braille cell. Some apps strip or block these characters, and screen readers may read them badly.

How a code point is built

Each raised dot adds one value to 2800, in hexadecimal: dot 1 adds 1, dot 2 adds 2, dot 3 adds 4, dot 4 adds 8, dot 5 adds 10, dot 6 adds 20, dot 7 adds 40 and dot 8 adds 80. Dots 1, 2 and 5 make 13, so ⠓ is U+2813.

How the dots are numbered

Dots 1, 2 and 3 run down the left of the cell and 4, 5 and 6 down the right. Dots 7 and 8 sit beneath them, for eight-dot braille. The first 64 characters, U+2800 to U+283F, are the six-dot cells.

  • Unicode gives a cell no meaning: its name lists the raised dots only. ⠓ is h in English braille and other letters in other scripts.
  • The 26 cells that stand for a to z in English braille carry that letter in their row.

Questions and answers

How many braille patterns are in Unicode?

256, from U+2800 to U+28FF: every combination of eight dots, each raised or not. 64 of them, the six-dot cells, use only dots 1 to 6. The block has been in Unicode since version 3.0, in 1999.

What is the Unicode for a braille letter?

Unicode names cells by their dots, not by letters. In English braille a is ⠁, U+2801, dot 1; b is ⠃, U+2803, dots 1 and 2; c is ⠉, U+2809, dots 1 and 4.

Is there an HTML code or an Alt code for a braille cell?

No cell has a named HTML entity or an Alt code. A numeric reference works for every one: ⠓ or ⠓ is ⠓, the code point written in decimal or in hexadecimal.

Why do braille patterns show as empty boxes?

The font on that device has no braille cells. They have been in Unicode since 1999, so most devices draw them. The first cell, U+2800, has no dots and draws nothing even where the font is present.

How this list was compiled: Every name and code point is from UnicodeData.txt, version 18.0.0 (https://www.unicode.org/Public/18.0.0/ucd/UnicodeData.txt), printed in sentence case; the block's range and name are from Blocks.txt, the version that added it from DerivedAge.txt, and the note on the empty cell from NamesList.txt of the same version (https://www.unicode.org/Public/18.0.0/ucd/). The year is from https://www.unicode.org/history/publicationdates.html. How the dots are numbered, that dots 7 and 8 sit beneath the six, and that Unicode gives a cell no meaning: the Braille section of The Unicode Standard, Version 18.0, chapter 21 (https://www.unicode.org/versions/Unicode18.0.0/core-spec/chapter-21/) and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Braille_Patterns (wikitext). The sum printed in each row follows from the row's own name and was computed for all 256. The 26 cells that stand for a to z in English braille are from the table in section 4.1 of the Rules of Unified English Braille, third edition 2024 (https://iceb.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Rules-of-Unified-English-Braille-2024.pdf), checked against the letter table of the open braille translator's Unified English Braille files (https://github.com/liblouis/liblouis/blob/master/tables/latinLetterDef6Dots.uti); no other braille rule is stated. That no cell has a named HTML entity or an Alt code was checked against https://html.spec.whatwg.org/entities.json and the code page 437 and 1252 tables (https://www.unicode.org/Public/MAPPINGS/VENDORS/MICSFT/). All sources were read on 2026-10-01. The Start here group is this site's own choice; the other two groups are in code point order.
