Hello John, Thanks for your help. Originally saw a new application called emboss and didn’t think to look further. After your message I looked and found the actual application louis. So I am now making progress.
As the embosser works from the braille lite via the parallel port I need to switch it over to serial connection. I have found from Index a manual for Basic V1 which sounds like this model. It has a recessed switch low down on the back panel. Not easy to get at. That I need to switch to serial connection. I couldn’t reach properly and while it is working with the lite I don’t want to mess it up yet. I have been copying files onto a floppy and feeding them to the embosser via the lite. What I am trying to do is to braille out is track listings for vinyl records. What I am finding is that louis ignores my carriage returns and doesn’t keep a list format. Should I be able to do this via Louis? Or do I need to spend money on an expensive software package? Your comments are appreciated.
