Unified English Braille Australian Training Manual now available in Braille
http://brailleaustralia.org <http://brailleaustralia.org/>
The Australian Braille Authority is pleased to announce the release of
the Unified English Braille Australian Training Manual (2014) in Braille
format.
While the Training Manual is designed as a teaching tool for sighted
people, touch readers may benefit from its less formal explanations of
UEB compared with the UEB Rulebook. The Braille version will also be of value
to touch readers engaged in Braille teaching.
The UEB Australian Training Manual can be downloaded from the Australian
Braille Authority's website at
http://brailleaustralia.org/unified-english-braille/unified-english-braille-australian-training-manual-2013/
<http://brailleaustralia.org/unified-english-braille/unified-english-braille-australian-training-manual-2013/>
In addition to the PDF print version, you will now find five BRF files.
The embossable Braille version is in four volumes, designed to be
embossed on A4 size paper with 30 cells per line and 25 lines per page.
If opened using the Duxbury Braille Translator, “read formatted Braille
without interpretation” should be checked in the Global menu under
Formatted Braille Importer. The fifth BRF file has been designed to be
read using a refreshable braille display.
Our thanks are extended to Kathy Riessen and Christine Simpson, who undertook
the mammoth task of transcribing and proofreading this complex document.
We hope that it will be of value to you.
With kind regards,
Leona Holloway
