You can download direct from NLS WebBraille into Kurzweil 1000 (if
you're a qualified library member and have been given a password). I'm
sure this is
by mutual agreement between NLS and KESI.

Well, if you have an embosser, you can emboss the books.
Nls makes it clear that to use the books on their web site you must have
either a braille display or a notetaker. I Don't think they would
approve
of backtranslating their braille books.
I would suggest you seriously consider buying a BrailleNote or braille
display. Being able to take the Bible and other braille books with me
in my
BN has revolutionized my life.
I would go crazy if I had to use Duxbury with speech! Duxbury is my
main
word processor and it's nice being able to translate a document and read
it
using DBT.
