Hello,

I own a ViewPlus Emprint. It is essentially a Tiger embosser with an inkjet built in. ViewPlus doesn't plan to support the embosser under the Mac for Braille or graphics, surprise surprise. Anyway, I tried a few things, and got a strange result.

I selected "ViewPlus" in my System Preferences, and selected "Generic PostScript" as the PPD. I attempted to open TextEdit and simply print a "Hello World" document. Well, to my surprise, the thing started embossing! But, wait, its not all good. What I received was an actual raw output of the PostScript in grade 1 braille.

Anyone got any ideas how I could use Louis to send this thing raw text and get some great Braille output? If it can read and emboss the raw PostScript, why not Braille?

Thanks,
Ryan
