Aww. I'm so sorry that I lead you to the wrong source. I was pretty excited to
see it and that it was updated. Darn.
You know, it's out there somewhere on somebody's ftp space. Not sure if it
would work with Windows 10 though. J

Hi Dani,
We had a call only today about OBR (Optical Braille Recognition) which we used
to sell here in the U.K.
I just wish it was still available, and have tried to find out what happened to
it.
With UEB these days, back translation of braille to print (using Duxbury of
course) would be so much easier and better.
I do however believe that one of the stumbling blocks was in finding suitable
scanners which would recognise dots from both sides of the page.

Hi, Everyone.
Back in the early 2000s I used a program called OBR from a Czechoslovakian
company that let the user scan hard copy Braille and archive it onto the
computer's hard drive for later reference. Is this program still available, and
if so, can I get it in the US or do I need to look internationally for it? I
don't think the original seller is in business anymore, and I'm hoping there's
hardware that will let me use the program with a Win10 computer with USB
ports--the original program install has a dongle with, if I remember right, a
25-pin serial port.
Thanks,
Dani
