G'day all,

I have a technical question which I intend to post across several lists,
so my apologies in advance to those of you who have to put up with
multi-copies.

 

Is there an easy way to "embed" Braille into an e-mail so it shows as
dots on the received e-mail (other than sending it as an attachment)? If
there is it would enable us to avoid the "dot 3, dot 4-5-6-"
"en-in-ing-" gibberish we resort to to communicate Braille questions. I
did a little test using ascii code, and also copy/paste from a .dxb
(Duxbury) file (also ascii) which seemed to work as long as the
receiving computer had a Braille font installed. I don't know how well
it would work with screen readers/Jaws etc.

 

Any ideas?

Alan.
