Hi Diana,
Forgive me coming in here. This is purely for information.
Although I am a Braille producer using both Duxbury and other programmes,
we actually don't use Moon. However, I am vice-chair of governors of a
large special school and because of the children's varying abilities, they
use a lot of Moon. In particular, they use it to assist children with
little sight who are 5 and 6 onwards.
Purely for information but they are a great resource.

Dear Ann
Our local authority use Moon in small quantities with some children having
learning difficulties and a visual impairment in our special schools. We
prepare the resources on computer using the Moon font of the correct size
and then raise it on microcapsule paper.
I don't know if RNIB still produce a magazine in Moon which was for older
people who had lost their sight late in life. Moon is very similar to the
letters of the alphabet.
