I am using liblouis to translate files from text to braille and then using the index print app to send to the printer. You should of course look at your braille file and edit if necessary before sending to the printer. Greg Kearney did a "louis" app that I think works for English but doesn't work well for some other languges. Keith posted a thorough post about using the Index printrs back a few months ago; you should probably go look in the archives if you haven't read that. I don't have the time tonight but if I still have it I will repost it here eventually unless somebody else does but you should be able to find it in the list archives. -- Cheryl May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable to You, Lord, my rock and my Redeemer.
