Arletta is right. You'd first print the cards and then emboss them. If your
embosser can't emboss directly on heavy card stock you could emboss on sheets
of clear labels and then stick the labels on the cards.

Kathy,
I haven't done this, but from what I read, you want to print first. Putting the
brailled cardstock through your printer (whether its cardstock or the
perforated business card stock) will flatten the braille, won't it?

Frank,
thank you for this, so the braille should be done first then the print is that
correct or not?

Hello Kathy:
A standard size business card can hold five lines of Braille with 14 cells in
each line, so, assuming that you separate each Braille card image by a blank
line and also include a blank line at the top of the page, you could layout two
columns with four card images per column to emboss on a 8.5 by 11 inch sheet of
pre-printed card stock. Hopefully, others on this list who have actually
produced Braille business cards can give you more specific instructions.
Best wishes,
Frank Welte
