Support for SWIFT: DBT runs a web service that allows connectivity to a web-based implementation of SWIFT.

BANA Braille Template: DBT 14.1 includes BANA Braille 2024, an updated version of the BANA Braille template created by Susan Christensen. Language Support: Sotho (Northern and Southern Pedi) print-to-braille translation has been modified to update contractions per input from a South African authority, as has Tswana translation.

The Swahili (Kenya) translators (both print-to-braille and braille-to-print) have been updated to correct the handling of a certain shortform. The English/Unified (UEB) print-to-braille translation table has been has been updated to correct a problem whereby a required grade 1 indicator could be missing in certain instances where a hyphen immediately follows an expression explicitly declared to be "technical", e.g. when a "math" style is applied to just the "x" in "x-coordinate". This change also affects translation of several uncontracted languages where print-to-braille translation is derived from the UEB table and UEB learning series ("Weebee Dots") translation. Contracted forms of several unusual words have also been corrected in print-to-braille translation. Embosser Support: A top margin adjustment automatically applied to ViewPlus Columbia embossers is now also applied to Irie BrailleTrac embossers. Python: PDF and Macros: DBT includes support for importing PDF files and a general-purpose macro facility. These two major new features require support of Python, an optional installation component that may be omitted when required by network policy.
