The only way is to write it into a Keyword braille or BRF file, then never translate it or try to read it with speech. Not good for moving between the bn and any other non-braille devices, but good for, as you said, writing very quickly. On Feb 20, 2014, at 6:42 PM, Kristen <kskristen@xxxxxxxxx> wrote:

Hi--

I am beginning to learn grade 3 Braille, as I think it will help me type notes for high school, and then college, more efficiently. I've never come across an option for this, but is it possible to type in grade 3 Braille on the Apex? I don't want my entire keyboard in this code but am trying to switch it over in KWB documents, like you do with computer Braille. Or, would the best way to practice just be to type grade 3 into a grade 2 file (I know this won't translate well in print, but I will know what it means)?

Also, I recently signed up for NFB Newsline. I see an option on their site to e-mail an entire publication or a section of one to yourself as an attachment. Does this come through as a Daisy text only, or is there a way to get an HTML edition e-mailed to you?
Thanks,
