Hello every one,
Yes, now thanks to Greg Kearney, I am now able to print our Duxbury
BRF files from a MAC to a braille printer. The MAC sends a BRF
file from a USB port on the MAC through a serial converter to the
serial port on the braille printer. It has been used successfully
with some Enabling Technoligy printers and The basic-D printers.
Other printers with a serial port may work as well, but we have not
had other printers to test.
It is most important for us here at Bibles for the Blind to be able
to print our BRF files. A great deal of work has gone into the
creation of those files over the years.
The little program that makes this happen is the brfsend program.
New brf files can be created with NFB TRANS, which I am told will
creat documents in other languages.
I plan to start learning NFB TRANS tomorrow
Greg, would you be kind enough to tell us where we mite download
the latest BRFSEND and the latest NFBTRANS files.
This is a great day for braille printing on the MAC!
Thank you Greg!
