Hi Mary. I do have an Index V5 Braille embosser as I bought it earlier this year.
I have installed the Direct Braille program on to my Mac and it is going well in that I can print from Text Edit or e-mails or my notes icon. This embosser has a wifi in it so I have put the wifi address in to my print cue and can now print from my Mac. This embosser is supposed to have bluetooth in it and am waiting for my distributor to get in touch with the manufadturer to ask how to get the bluetooth element working. However, I am not sure if this will be able to work with my I phone if I do get the bluetooth working with my I phone. Hope this helps.
