I think the send-to option on the context menu of a file can be used to
send it to BrailleBlaster for translation and embossing. However, I am
not a Windows expert. You would also need a configuration file that
specifies cdllsPerLine and linesOnPage for the embosser and the correct
literaryTextTable .
