Here are links to the pages on this site which provide background on various issues affecting the production of
braille from DAISY documents.
- Current Issues for Automated Conversion of Print to Braille:
The Braille-in-DAISY Project
link
- The Requirement for Multiple Translation Algorithms
to Produce Accurate Braille
link
- Issues for Braille Translation of Hyphenated Items
link
- A Proposal for a Standard Specification of Braille Translation Systems for Input to Braille Production Software
- Proposed Extensions to the Portable Embosser Format (Note,
I wrote this page before I learned that PEF had already been adopted
by several organizations. Even so the article may be of some
interest, especially with respect to issues related to
proofreading braille and to providing support for
automatic interlining of braille files.) link
