Recently there was some discussion on creating .brf files to read on devices
such as the Orbit.
Professional tools such as Duxbury or Braillemaker are excellent ways to
produce well formatted brf files.
There are various free translators available. BrailleBlaster can produce good
quality formatted Braille. .
BrailleBlaster is available from:
<https://www.brailleblaster.org/>
https://www.brailleblaster.org/
I use SendToBraille which does convert to brf but doesn't have the capability
to produce pages etc.
Send TO Braille adds a Braille option in the Windows send menu. You highlight a
file then either right click or press the applications key and arrow down to
the send to menu.
Send to Braille can be downloaded from:
<https://tech.aph.org/lt/>

Braille-blaster can be downloaded
Another option is RoboBraille. You send a file via the web site and the
translated document is emailed back to you. The RoboBraille web site is:
