Braille (BRF)

We provide Braille documents (BRF files) for download from our website in contracted Braille (grade two Braille), formatted to 40 characters per line and 25 lines per page. BRF files are suitable for use in Duxbury, for review on a refreshable Braille display, or for output to a Braille embosser.

Etext, also known as text-to-speech, is used for voice synthesizers. Etext files can be downloaded and used with common word processors such as Microsoft Word or Notepad.

Etext voice is available on 3 1/4 diskette or CD.
