Random Access: The DotsPlus Tactile Font Set.
Gardner, John
Journal of Visual Impairment & Blindness, v92 n12 p836,838-40 Dec 1998
Describes "DotsPlus," a tactile font set that allows computers to print documents in any language which uses the Roman alphabet in tactile form. DotsPlus overcomes such Braille problems as code translation, Braille numbers, exotic symbols, and symbols out of context. A new printing technology (TIGER--Tactile Graphics Embosser) produces DotsPlus documents conveniently. (DB)
