That would sound reasonable to me Derek. Do you use Duxbury?----- Original Message ----- From: "Derek Hornby" <derek.hornby_uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

All I want is Braille. I don't want to produce braille books. Yet I think there is version 11 ofDuxbury if not higher, and search me, but what does it do above version 10.7apart from make more money for Duxbury?----- Original Message ----- From: "Derek Hornby" <derek.hornby_uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Sunday, October 14, 2012 2:52 PM Subject: [access-uk] Re: BraillemakerSo is Duxbury worth the cost? Can it do anything the cheaper Braille Programs cannot do?

I had something once called Braille Master and I loved it but I don't think it went even to Windows 2000. It cost a hundred pound at the time. -----Original message----- From: Jackie Cairns Sent: 14/10/2012, 11:28 am To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [access-uk] Re: Braillemaker Hi Eleanor and Niamh Off the top of my head, Braille Maker comes in two flavours, Standard and Professional. Standard used to be £195, and Professional £395, but that may have changed. Last I knew, Duxbury was £430. They are both good programs. I just prefer Braille Maker for its more simplistic and straightforward layout. It isn't that I don't like Duxbury, I just prefer Braille Maker. Support for both is very good indeed wherever you obtain it. But Brian Cairney knows the Braille Maker program very well, as does George with Duxbury. Both programs also support the Index embossers.
