Introduction

Presentation

AccessBrailleRAP is a Braille translation tool designed to create embossed documents on a BrailleRAP embosser. By Braille documents, we mean documents that contain text embossed with the Braille standard selected. For reference, BrailleRAP is a DIY (Do It Yourself) open source embosser that allows you to create Braille documents but also to emboss graphics.

Here is an example of a document created with AccessBrailleRAP and a BrailleRAP:
