There's two braille translations that have been ported to the mac. Neither one is as automatic as what you're used to on windows, though it would probably be possible to make one of them do so if someone wanted to take the time to code rtf tag recognition into them). Nfbtrans, which is relatively simple to use, though you do need to manually handle formatting of your document using tags specific to nfbtrans. I use nfbtrans exclussively for all of my brailling needs, both on osx and windows/dos. The other one you already know about, and that's louis braille translator. I have copies of louis somewhere, though I'm not sure where. For some reason, I can't locate the osx version of nfbtrans on my softcon pages, though I was fairly certain I'd posted it there quite a long time ago, so if you want a copy, let me know, and I'll email it to you directly until I can get the time to put it up on softcon's mac pages again. hth On Dec 4, 2014, at 3:05 PM, william lomas wrote:
