Do I need to install a driver?

No, the Cosmo does not have braille software built in.  It is first and
foremost an embosser and braillewriter.

Hi George,

Yes, I wondered about that too.  My old Index Basic V3 still works on 
Windows 10 beautifully.

All the best

Steve

Hi Mo,

What on earth make and model of embosser do you have which costs that 
much to get it working with Windows 10?

We been supplying braille embossing hardware and software for almost 
30 years, and have never come across such a thing.  Yet!

Feel free to contact me off list if you wish.

Hello Everyone.
I have a braille embosser and the software needs to be upgraded if I 
am to continue using it on Windows 10. However, I do not print braille 
that much so am wondering if the upgrade price of $500 is justified. I 
am looking for a low cost, free or open source braille translation
program.
Ideally, I would like it to emboss to any embosser, support grade 
1/gradebleb/UEB UK braille standards and have the ability to work with 
file formats such as doc and RTF. It would be good if the program 
could also print page numbers and take formatting in to account. The 
reason for multiple braille standards support is in case I should ever 
need to print documents for friends. Does such a program exist?
Many thanks in advance,
Mo.
