# Major hack
# ONCE PDF uses a mapping that seems to be based on the Spanish char encoding. This is a bit like ASCII braille, but different
# Here we start with the ASCII encoding, stretch it to 128, then remap characters
#   set_char() is used to override a spot
#   SPANISH_REMAP is used to take non-ASCII chars back down to the ASCII braille mapping if it isn't overridden already.
# It's all a hack. It would be best if I could find some string encoding like for ASCII braille,
#   but with large gaps due to accented chars
# The remap list has grown large, so maybe just have it map to Unicode and be done with the array lookup.
